    5 Weeks post op and no weight loss

    When you stall, your body is adjusting to the weight loss. You are losing inches. You will notice in your clothes. I see it as a win-win whether it is pounds or inches I will take it...

    Stepped on the scale

    Thanks all!!!!! I feel absolutely amazing!!!!!
  12. I am 2 months out and have lost 57 lbs. I still think I am that bigger girl from before my surgery. My boss told me today to STOP wearing my old clothes because they were TOO BIG and to wear smaller ones. She knows I have a variety of sizes in my closet. She kinda yelled at me when she said it. :director: SOOO, when I got home I put several items in the goodwill basket and moved the smaller sizes to the front. I am going to take my boss' advice and wear the smaller clothes!!!! :thumb:

    Success Story... I think

    I eat really anything I want and have a taste for. The only exercising I do is walking and that is minimal. I don't do anything different than before, just smaller portions. I am a heavy weight so I contribute that as a factor.
  14. I get hiccups when I am full. My stomach growls when I am really hungry. I still get hunger pains too.

    Questions

    When you have a stall, your body is losing inches. Your body has to adjust to the weight loss. If you are not losing lbs, you are losing inches. I look at as a win both ways.

    Dear Protein,

    I HATE YOU!!!! I can't stand the way you taste or smell. You can be chocolate, vanilla, strawberry or cookies and cream. I still disgust you!!!! Your version of a shot is awful too. The only reason I do your shot is because it is 3 oz instead of 6!!!! I love my hair and strength and that is the only reason I will continue to use you!!!!! :lol0:
  18. How goes the mushies?

    Coconut Water

    Coconut water also helps with leg cramps...
  20. It was yogurt. I did Dannon lite and fit, key lime pie. I could only eat about half of the 6 oz container. I was stuffed!!!

  21. I cheated and started mushies early. Yogurt never tasted so good!!!! I got on the scale Monday morning and had to step off to make sure it was right. I lost 5 lbs between my appt and Monday morning... I was really surprised!!!

  22. I still have bouts of being tired. I noticed a difference when I started mushies.... I was getting more calories and felt better. I get tired in the late afternoons and on the weekends when I try to nap I can't. I was out of town for the meeting. Did you make it?

  23. I talked to Dr. T about blood work and he says they check it at 6 mos, if there were no problems with your pre op blood work.

  24. Everything went well.... I am down 40 lbs since my liquid diet. Dr. Thompson leads the meeting and goes over vitamins, calcium, and protein. There were about 13 of us in there. I also was ok'd to eat anything in my capability and to chew!!! Glad you are feeling better!!!! The head hunger is better for me, as well, since I can eat real food!!!! YEA!!!
