Hi, Please let me know if anyone is having a problem with throwing up. I am 4 months and 2 week out and I have a problem with vomiting. Once I eat a meal or a snack about 2 hours later I can't stand the feeling in my stomach and I have to force myself to throw up. I have doing this but afterwards I feel so much better. My Dr. says it may be due to some swelling and possibly overeating. Anyone else having this same issue. I am pleased with the weight loss at this time 94 lbs and losing. Please respond... Thanks Patty D

Hi Patti, I'm glad you mentioned the hair loss, I am 4 months post op and I am starting to lose my hair too. I also have very thick hair but it is a very scary thing to lose as much as I am losing. But the weight loss is worth it. I'm down 94 lbs and loving every minute of it. Hang in there I'm sure it will grow back. Make sure to increase the PROTEIN.. Thanks, Patty D

Hey Eric.. 80 lbs is a great loss....Can you tell me how much protein you are getting in? If walking doesn't do it..try something else...I find weight training the best option for me...and thats 40 minutes a day... hugs Karol

Gail, I will be 4 months out the 24 of this month and I have peoblem with meats as well. Karlina Norris

I think it depends on what weight you start at. I started at 250 lbs and I have lost a total of 67 lbs. I thought that was slow also considering that my best friend had lost over 100 lbs by that time. She also started at a weight of 373 lbs. I also think everyone is different. Some lose it fast, some lose it slow, we just have to rely on what nature wants us to lose. I go for weeks at a time without losing anything and then all of a sudden I have lost 5 - 10 lbs. So don't worry about it... The rate you are losing at is meant for you!!!
