Mine does the same thing (plus or minus 4 pounds) I move it around on the floor like a crazy person until I get a reading that is the same or lower than the day before... so I just ordered an Omron 400 ($44 from Amazon). But now what if it gets here and tells me I weigh more than the one I already have?? I will be totally ticked off then.

I've kept mine a secret as well. my husband and my mother know. Not even my father or my 4 siblings know. Keeping it a secret for me has been easy when people ask what I'm doing to lose weight I just tell them I eat small portions through out the day which is not a lie.

Paula dean has dropped a lot of weight too. And with all that delicious cooking she does. I think she had sugery.

Awesome job!

Monday is my 6 month and as of today I've lost 100 pounds. I started at 305 and today im 205!! I'm so happy I did this for my self. I don't feel like it has effected my life negatively in anyway( except when I want to eat more of something yummy and can't). I love feeling like myself and beautiful again that's the best feeling ever! I would do this again in a heart beat. I'm 26 and married and excited to start a family with in the next few years and not have to worry if my weight is gonna prevent us from getting pregnant. This has been the best thing I have done for myself!

My new tummy loves this white chicken chili and it's so yummy. I buy one of those McCormick chicken chili packets and use one can of white kidney Beans, one can of white corn, chicken, chopped onion. It's so easy and goes down with no problem for me. My husband loves it too!

I think I figured out what caused me to have a bezoar I'm pretty sure it was edamame beans!! I had some last night and today I just felt like something was stuck and nothing would stay down. So I went and got a coca cola and sipped on it and I think I broke it up I feel better now. I guess the skin on the Beans don't digest or go down very easily. So edamame lovers Watch out!

I was back on my side at 2 weeks and back on stomach at 3 weeks with no pain at all.

I went with aceves. Your gonna pay a little bit more with him but it's worth it. Im 3 weeks post op and feel great, i had a super fast recovery and everybody there was so nice!

Yesterday was my six week post op. My issues (heartburn and slimming) in week 5 have gotten better since I started a regular PPI. This was the best thing I've ever done for myself im happy i did this while im still young and have no children. I have not yet regretted my decision. Down 40 pounds so far!! 80 more to go till goal!

I have been fine until this week as well, at 5-1/2 weeks out. Monday I poached a tender piece of halibut and steamed asparagus. The asparagus I'd eaten many times before, no problems at all. I ate about 2oz of the fish very slowly, chewed like crazy, over about one hour. I got that horrendous pain in the chest that didn't go away for about 15 minutes. So I finally gave in, and tried spitting a little only to have my first slime experience. Disgusting. Unfortunately I have a sensitive gag reflex, so the entire dinner came up. Now switch to the next evening when I'm at a friend's for dinner and I was able to eat about 3oz of grilled chicken, some green pepper, onion, avocado, mozz cheese, and 1/2 an oatmeal cookie made with applesauce. No problems at all! Then the next night I used the remaining halibut and put it in a veggie broth, and it went down no problem. So I'm thinking the one bad night is behind me. Until last night, when I tried eating roasted chicken (have had it before no problem) and after 1.5oz over 45 minutes -- got the slimes again.
I take Prilosec in the mornings and otherwise have no heartburn symptoms. Go figure!!

hi spacey
sorry you are having so many problems. - having those gag reflex are no fun. same w/going to the bathroom etc. puking and all doesn't sound right. Please call your doctor - he will give you helpful information.
I believe this board is for support, some advise and experiences of are own referring to anyone subject matter but not to be confused official words of wisdom from our doctors.
that being said.... my wls 12/15/11 - my doc gave me Priloc to take home. take it daily (am) and i've never experienced heartburn!!! just my 2 cents
hopefully w/your docs help, you will get better sooner than later
best

Yes i didn't have any medical issues. I did it just to lose weight and to prevent medical issues.

I went with aceves. Your gonna pay a little bit more with him but it's worth it. Im 3 weeks post op and feel great, i had a super fast recovery and everybody there was so nice!

I cannot believe myself... I've been cheating on my diet pretty much this entire time since Ive been sleeved 2 weeks ago. I started in week one eating tuna, then now in week two I've progressed on to even worse... Things I know I definitely should not be eating but somehow I can cheat and tolerate everything I've put in my sleeve.. I am so embarrassed and ashamed with myself that at 16 days out I'm screwing up as bad as I am. Everyday I wake up and tell myself that Im going to do better today but I always end up cheating.... I've lost 16.7 lbs since surgery and I know it would be more if I could just stick to the plan.. Has anyone else had trouble adjusting to this new lifestyle change this early on?

I'm a hair styliest soI'm standing all day and I had a week off and was fine to go back then. Nobody at work knew I had the sugery and nobody suspected a thing.

I agree with Lissa, look at all of those other things that are changing about your body. If your size is changing, and you are feeling great that should be all that matters. I know the point of WLS is to lose "weight" but for me it is about losing weight to get healthier and be able keep up with my toddler. My surgery is in four days and I have decided that I will not be focused on or a slave to the "number". Any good changes that happen to my body will be a WIN for me regardless of how much weight I've lost. It won't be about what I lost this week or last.
I think losing weight is important but focus on all of the NSVs you are having. As long as you are doing what you need to do with your Protein, food, and Water, it will all work itself out. I wish you luck!
