So this is one of those good things / bad things. Have been losing weight at a good rate ( being good) but i feel like my skin is itchy as all get out, different places etc. Think it is shrinking...cant be sure, but after losing almost 60 lbs since 10/14, is that too fast for my body? Anyone else itchy?

Had my surgery on Monday morning and was released Tuesday afternoon only 36 hours in the hospital. Just wanted all future sleevers to know 2 things, 1. On your 2 week liquid diet do not cheat and drink more water than a fish. 2. After your surgery get up and walk, you will be tired, but walk and do your breathing exercises...it makes all the difference. Dr. Naim did a great job and the staff at Potomac hospital were wonderful, thanks. No nausea or anything else that i have heard about, just normal
