A little update...

So I just keep stalling out at about 186.2 lbs. Well, sometimes it is 188, 187, 186, but never below. Well, even though I haven't lost much weight, today I got into size 12 pants. :sad0: Not just once, but over and over again in the dressing room. So I am losing inches, but today the scale moved again also.

 

I have learned that if I go 1g over my 30g limit of carbs a day, I will not lose. If I stay under 30g, I will lose every time. So thanks to Tiffy for all the advice-she is exactly right. 30g is a good limit.

 

So Saturday I leave to go on vacation for the third time in 4 weeks. :thumbup1: I am going to try my best to eat right every day while on vacay. We are going with a few friends (and they have no idea that I had surgery) so it is going to be tough.

 

I still have chronic diarrhea on a daily basis. I have tried plenty of remedies with no resolve. I guess it is just going to take time. When I told my doctor, he said "That doesn't have to do with the sleeve." :biggrin0: Honestly, why would the diarrhea start a few days after surgery? I have never experienced anything like this in my life!

YAY for vacation, icky on the poo issues, I'm sorry nothing is working to resolve that issue. I hate to hear that it isn't resolving. I hope something gives you some relief at some point because that must be miserable.
