  4. reading everyones post. i know i am not alone, yet i feel so alone. im depressed now i got this major surgery i was losing up until my 6th month. i have not loss since then. i got down to 217 yayyyyyy and now i am 225 what gives. I gained once i started working out and no im not losing inches my cloths are tighter. ive been to kaiser about 10 times about being dizzy body aches and so on. all of my blood work shows me healthy and well nourshised. so why am i dizzy sometimes, its not vertigo either. i am scared to workout now, fear of gaining more weight. i was doing good 6 days a week 45 min of kick boxing to doing nothing now. i am so frustrated with this stall. 5 months and no loss. im crying inside really bad. i see others with success and i ask what happened to me. i was doing every thing right those first 6 months and than it stopped and sent me into depression and when i get depressed i eat. i still have restriction but i can get in cals if i eat bad. this sucks.

  6. fidddleman (my husband) miss ou boo. lol. i need this months ago. I do a very intense workout called turbo jam (well not any longer) i gained 5lbs and i think its because of he workout (meaning) it burns from 700-1000 cals an hr I do 45 mins well i only eat like 1200 and was burning all through out the day. well i ended up fainting and still have dizzy spells. so im not sure what to do at this point. i am not working out currently. I see my dr tomorrow to see whats going on. so far all of my levels are good except vit D IS LOW

  11. i am all better potassium level is back up
  12. I stopped losing at 6 months out. its now over10 months and the same 2-5lbs bounce back and forth. I have done everything I was suppose to do. I follow the basics, i only drink Water,no soda no juice just water, sometimes with fruit in it. i dont drink before or after i eat. i excersise on the regular, actually i was doing it to much and ended up in the ER i am better now but wow what a ride. i am back to where i was before surgery, meaning i dont know what to do anymore. nothing is working low cal low carb low fat. high cals high low Protein i am so tired of this. I have decided to except the 55lbs i have lost since 9/12/12. I am thinking maybe a cleanse might work. I am upset but it is what it is. total since pre op is ablut 80lbs lost. i have 60 more to go and i am at the point of just giving up.
  13. nursebarbie, i am going to be bugging you. i have lots of questions pertaining to this subject. do your mind?
  14. nursebarbie just sharing the article i didnt write it. and where were you when i need you man
  15. diet further down the page). Not just water! It's important that you remain hydrated after weight loss surgery... you must drink FLUIDS (preferably, low calorie ones such as unsweetened, caffeine-free herbal tea) but not just Water. If you only drink water, you may develop electrolyte abnormalities such as water intoxication syndrome. Talk with your team for recommendations specific to you, but usually no more than half of your fluids should be water. found this in an article http://www.bariatric-surgery-source.com/life-after-weight-loss-surgery.html
