Stalls are a normal part of the process, even though we hate it and we may be doing everything right with exercise, water, protein, and calories. They still happen. Don't let it worry you.

Welcome and congratulations on your decision. I have found the boards to be very helpful and people to be very supportive and informative so this is a good place to get some encouragement when you need it.

Crystal Light, Mio, 15 cal Minute Maid lemonade, green decaf tea, decaf Constant Comment Tea and some herbal. Oh yeah, also propel liquid Strawberry Kiwi. But water unless chilled- Yucky Poo!

An Observation to share 5 SIGNS YOU'RE DOING BETTER THAN YOU THINK YOU ARE 1)You're not the same person or same size you were a year ago. 2)You now have goals 3) You've experienced real hardships 4)You now have 1 or 2 close friends 5) You know God has still great things in store for you.

But worrying won’t help the situation. Just stick with your program, and recognize you’re doing everything you can.

thanks, i'm going to try again and see what happens as a start and hopefully it was just coincidence i'm glad you both didn't have issues with it

Amen, sister! I pray every day for God to let me to continue to lose weight and be healthy and I thank him for getting me through surgery with no complications.

I haven’t met the surgeon yet. Getting ahead of myself I guess. I’ll meet him in 3 weeks which seems like forever since I’ve wanted this done over 20 years ago. My insurance covers it finally!!

I'm sleeve to DS (SIPs, actually.) . The recovery was a breeze. 1/10th that of sleeve. I was walking the same day and eating solid food two days later. Best decision I ever made.

I'm a month out from WLS. I wish someone had told me that will still like candy and salty/fatty things and not to cheat ever or it's all going to be for naught. I didn't spend $14K for a new life just to ruin it again. You'll still need just as much discipline to break head hunger and breaking bad habits as you did before. I don't even want a snack sometimes, but I'm still standing in front of the refrigerator staring into the shelves looking for something that I don't need or want. It's very hard to get past that....VERY HARD...
