Topic: RE: Weight gain etcetera...

Good morning,

It has been a while since I've been on here. I am doing well. How y'all doin? ;)

I had surgery 14 months ago. Recovery went well. My goal weight is still 130 - 135lbs. My low weight was 147 lb****ting 147 lbs was sooo Exciting!! I have experienced some weight gain. Now I'm up to weighing 160.

The weight gain has had me a little concerned. I am hoping that I can lose it. Any suggestions?

I went back to some of my old habits. I enjoyed eating carbs, off-and-on, for a while. It's time to go back to eating healthier. I'll be back on track starting today. :)

The over-all Saggy skin can be a real bummer at times... Fortunately, I can cover up the majority of it with my clothes. I finally like the way I look in my clothes. I am Still getting use to being at a healthy weight.

My "new" face is what's bothering me. My face didn't sag much or have wrinkles before the surgery. I am adjusting to the "new" me. I'm thinking about getting a mini facelift.

Happy to say that My hair loss has stopped for the most part. I have plenty of new growth which is very Exciting :) I hope to have thick hair once again.

Over all, I am pleased with my my surgery results. No regrets. Happy Days!!!

Topic: RE: Vitamins

Good morning 

I heard that your not suppose to take your calcium and multi-vitamin together because of the way that calcium and iron is absorbed by your body. How much time should a person wait between taking them? Does anyone have any advice where taking vitamins is concerned?

Good evening,

Its a crazy cold day! I would be drinking hot chocolate with marshmallows right now in the past. I would be cooking unhealthy comfort food for dinner. I'm drinking water and planning on eating a healthy dinner instead. 

I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!!

Hi

I miss popcorn dearly. Is eating buttered popcorn a bad idea in general for those of us who are sleeved? My surgery date is 10/18/16.

Thanks

Topic: RE: hanging skin

I too fear that I'll not be able to wear shorts after I reach my goal weight of 135lbs. My highest weight was 250lbs., I started my journey at 229, surgery weight 216.8  I sincerely wish you the best of luck. 

I hope that everything works out well for y'all. 

Have a nice night.

Topic: RE: Dry Skin Blahh...

Hello Everyone,

I had VSG on 10/18/16. I've been having a difficult time with getting all my fluids in. I am dealing with dry skin daily. Does anyone know if dry skin will have a huge impact on my skin elasticity? I know that I'll have some sagging skin. I'm just hoping that the dry skin issue turns out to be just temporary.
