Congrats . Wonderful news

Congratulations. I know how you feel . I am down 107 lbs and now I think my stomach is huge. It takes a while for our brains to catch up to what we actually look like.

A stall at three weeks is very common . Keep up the good work and the scale will move. Try not to weigh yourself more than once a week.

I would talk to your doctor. In my opinion fasting at this stage of the game is not a good idea, you could become dehydrated and you need the protein for healing.

Protein helps with healing

1. Blood pressure back to normal 2. No longer diabetic 3. Can go up a flight of stairs and not be winded 4. Can buy clothes in the women's dept, no more plus sizes 5. Can ride my bike

Fabulous

I have told a lot of people about my surgery but I tend to have a bit of a big mouth. It is perfectly ok if you choose not to tell people it is your choice. You can simply tell them you are watching what you eat and exercising. Good luck on this incredible journey.

I had no pain after the surgery

Nice idea. Whst I did was make a paperclip chain for each pound I have lost.

I felt fine after surgery, you may have the same luck

I think you should call your doctor. It is not good to be short if breath

I would say call your doctor see what they have to say

Congrats

I am praying for both you and your mom

The weight will come off. I know its hard to believe but it will. I am down 105 lbs a year after surgery

Still happens to me a year out

I am in new brunswick. Where are you?

I can do the same

Most definately

I am no longer diabetic and my blood pressure is back to normal

Figured out how to message Alex

I was trying to respond to the 5:2 diet thread. How do you send a message to Alex? I'm not sure what constitutes a veteran either. I am a year out..

I tried to respond to a thread in the veterans forum and it said I do not have enough posts to post in this forum. How can I get around this.
