Awesome! You look great! Hope you continue to have a lot of success. Take care!

I'm totally with you on that feeling when you can only get a few bites down of a food you used to love lol and the hair yeah sucks I'm trying to grow mine long and it looks like its never going to happen the way its falling :c and awesome on your walks! Good luck on your journey. keep in touch

About the same. I'm trying to make what I eat count nutritionally and am learning those signals they say stop eating so I'm not miserable. Sometimes I feel sad because I was only able to eat three bites of something I really like. Still I like the way I look much better. Now I am worried as I am losing a lot of hair. While I have always had hair to spare, it still is unsettling to pull out be hand fully everyday. I'm told it is normal and it will grow back. Still. I started excersize wize to walk 10-15 minutes before each meal. I'm up to 20 minutes now. I'm going to start a 30 minute work out to go w/ that tomorrow ... I hope

happy week 16 post op vsg
I'm doing ok as far as loss goes, but healthy wise I don't think I was mentally prepared for this journey, I have horrible eating habits so, I'm trying to change that. As far as exercising I started yesterday, but I'm hoping to get a routine set bc I really need to get my head in the game if I want to reach my goal weight. So far I've lost about 68lbs. Other than that I sometimes have trouble with nausea, like certain foods, or restaurants make me extremely nauseous. So that's my 411, how are you girly?

That's awesome that you have more energy, I really need to get my butt to the gym:/ yeah I went back to work about a week after surgery

No, I haven't started working out yet. I keep saying I'm going to get up and walk before I go to work. I never do, though. I am getting more active and have more energy. There for a minute, I was getting up, going to work, come home, eat something and go immediately to bed. I can actually get a few things done before I collapse in my bed at night. Are you back to work yet?

wow 36 lbs.! AWESOME loss girl! have you started working out yet?,,, i have not :s
And yeah i can eat pretty much anything but for some weird reason i have a hard time with soft musy things like pudding, and oatmeal.. starting to up my water intake so hoping that will help me lose more weight. My incision is closing as well, a few more weeks and it will be fully healed i'm thinking. I'm happy for you, your doinng super good. Keep me posted!

Pretty good. Incision getting smaller but still reminding me I have it if I do something stupid. How's yours? Food...I can pretty much eat whatever I want, I just have to chew it really good and don't eat a lot of it. You? I have lost 36 lbs so far...I'll take that in 5 weeks.

hey buddy hows it been going? hows that incision? how are u doing with food?

I haven't braved the veggies yet. I still can only really hold a couple of bites of protein and figure I need that to heal. I have been drinking SOBE vitamin water and am able to do better with that than just straight water. I did just have someone suggest K20 protein water in the pink lemonade flavor. Get your water and protein in at same time. That sound promising. I will have to look at the powerade too. Thanks!

i am still having problems with one incision, its like right below my bra so its been hard for it to close. I am doing really good. BUT I dont drink protein shakes :/ even tough i should and i havent been taking my vitamins , except for the shots. And its week four now, so I started soft foods yestarday, ate some boiled mushy vegetables but wasnt feeling it so i think ill stick to pureed for a little while longer. And have you tried powerade? thats mainly what ive been drinking.
I hope your incision gets better!

I have one incision that is infected and having to watch it. I go back to work tomorrow, I'm little nervous.

Hi chick! It's been going good, sorta having problems with one of my incisions (taking a while to heal) but other than that everything's good. How bout you, how are things?
