I'll be 3 months post op on July 8th and lost 40 lbs. Am I losing too slow? I'm also severely dehydrated.

Since surgery, I have only lost 24 lbs. Shouldn't I have lost much more by now? I don't eat the very best and don't hit my water goals because eating and drinking is still uncomfortable, so not sure if lack of protein is why?

I'm 2 months post op and on my full diet. I still can't have bread, rice, noodles , nuts etc...and I'm so tired of eggs , chicken and meat in general. I don't eat like I should because I'm not hungry for anything, but I make myself drink a shake and eat something for dinner. Is this normal? Any recipes I can make besides the same ole meals?

I have stage 2 spondy with stenosis, pars defects etc... and I have numbness in my feet and I get extremely disoriented, dizzy and off balance. I don't feel I can walk properly or go up inclines or even in my own yard. I also have something called Pots that causes dizziness, so I was wondering if Spondy causes dizziness and being off balance? Does anyone use a rollator to walk?

I got an LG without an agitator 5 months ago and i absolutely love the machine and being able to wash blankets and bulky clothes, but I'm noticing towels and washcloths not getting fully clean from makeup. Does the agitator usually help clean better and should I get a front loader or do they not hold up as well?

Did any of you have issues with walking, balance and pain before losing enough weight? I still walk like a fat toddler, but I have bad knee pain and back issues. Anyone else with these issues that got better due to weight loss?

My house has been smelling like an old dusty carpet or a bit like a dirty dog. We do have animals and my house stays dusty no matter how much I clean. Is this my vents, hvac system etc..? How can I fix this issue?

I'm almost 2 months out and I still feel like something is stuck in my throat when I eat and after until my food digests. I'm also waking up in the middle if the night choking on acid reflux. Is this common? Has anyone had a stricture after gastric sleeve?

Its not hard to prioritize protein, but getting too much fat or carbs is another story. I try to just make sure I get my protein in and stay in a calorie deficit. I literally don't have the energy to count every little thing, plus it's no way to live in my opinion. How does everyone else feel?

How long after surgery can I get botox or filler? I get it for forehead lines in general, even before I started weight loss.

I'm now at the Full Diet stage which still doesn't allow breading or anything like that. What did everyone eat on the full diet stage?

I'm 5 weeks post op and I broke down and had 4 teaspoons of chocolate frosting. I feel like someone that lacks complete control, especially when it comes to goodies. Did anyone mess up in the very beginning? I actually feel sick now, so I definitely don't want to try that again!

Baccarat Rouge 540 is not my cup of tea and I feel it's an extremely familiar scent that has notes used in many perfumes. It doesn't smell expensive to me like a Chanel or other houses that truly smell classy and elegant.

I bought Ormond Jayne in the orange looking bottle and I'm not sure what it is called. It just has Ormond Jayne on it. Not to sound stupid, but is there a fragrance in this house that is just simply Ormond Jayne?

I'd also love to know : For those that love Ormond Jayne, help me another scent in this house. I absolutely love the one I have.

I'm on my soft stage which is meat, soft cooked veggies etc... I had a chicken leg today for the first time,should that be fine?

What did everyone eat on the soft stage?

I'm almost a month post op and I will be in my soft food stage. Does anyone have any food ideas or recipes for this stage? I'm excited to be able to eat shrimp !

I had the sleeve surgery 3 weeks ago and I get thr feeling of something stuck or trapped in my esophagus when I eat or drink shakes. Is this gas or food getting stuck snd is this normal?
