So happy for you!!! ))

Just remember to measure yourself during the "stall" its a relief to know your still losing inches.

I'm sorry to hear your going thru this, hopefully some great people in here can give you some answers. I haven't experienced any complications. My thoughts are with you!

So good to hear from you! things will get better every day! Yes @ 12 lbs lost already!!!

has anyone heard how he is doing? His surgery was the 25th but I haven't seen an update from him. He was so active on here... Jonathan give us an update

that's awesome congrats!!!

being barely two weeks out and taking a bite of chicken is so risky. and your experiencing symptoms of a problem. I would call but of course its your body. good luck!

yup you need to call and find out what to do. don't wait

good idea I'm going to try those things with mine and try and win them over

yummmmm

my doctor says we can drink up until we eat but not during or 30 minutes after. I know some doctors say 30 before... I have done both and it seems if I wait the 30 minutes before I fill more comfortable when eating. honestly I sometimes do wait and sometimes I don't but I never drink with my meal and always wait 30 minutes after.

if I was younger I would love to fit and wear a pair of Miss Me jeans and cute boots

thank you for the Starbucks idea! I'm going to do that.. I hope they will do it... my starbucks baristas are grumpy lol

hi katie I understand how you feel but you made a life saving and life changing decision so you will now live a full life with your precious lil one. It is hard in the beginning to keep things in perspective; we all struggled in the beginning but its a temporary time given for a lifetime of joy. You can do this... remind yourself the reasons you did this. I buried a friend at 41 from a heart attack and she had two children. Saddest thing in the world to experience children saying goodbye to their mother while they are still children. Be proud of yourself..you are strong...get through this temporary period and prepare for happiness to come. Drink your water, walk and follow your doctors instructions as you heal. If you still are feeling like this give your Dr a call ... they know what your going through and will help you. and we are here for you as well

The skinny girls get the miracle bras and we get the belly binders , Hehe A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do :-)

I'm so sorry. I'm not sure what to suggest. I did read on here that warm tea helped soothe peoples tummies. Is that an option? The smell of peppermint always helps me, could someone get you a sugar free peppermint? Just don't swallow it. Also clear that with your drs. first. Pain medicine can keep you naseaus. I really hope you find some relief!

Losing never felt so good!!!

Danielle- you look so radiant!!! Absolutely stunning, gorgeoussss! Congratulations

I had that happen. I drove my family crazy about it. I was sure I was never going to lose again and something was wrong with me. After two weeks I did finally measure myself and had lost inches but that scale wouldn't budge. I didn't lose pounds for 3 weeks! But then I started losing again It will happen, that scale is an evil friend, I find the tape measure to be angelic Try not to worry!

Have you been given your anti naseau medicine? I had to keep asking for it. It helped me a lot. Let your nurses know your naseaus, they should give you something. Hope you feel better soon!

Stalled no more yay! After weeks of losing nothing I have lost 5 lbs this week. This mornings weigh in- 167

How much fluid have you taken in since getting off the cath.? I hope you have urinated since your post but if not, I urge you to contact your physician immediately. I hope you are doing better but not being able to urinate is not normal and dangerous.

This is what I understand to be the reason we lose with high protein low carbs...it puts our bodies in a state of ketosis. Our bodies use carbs for energy, when we deny our bodies carbs we force it to burn our fat stores for energy. So you end up being a fat burning machine!! Woohooo!!

I love that idea!! You're doing fantastic Tjsmom

That is awesome!!! Keep up the great work!!! So glad to hear you are doing great!! )) p.s. I fit in a 14 petite today!! (I'm so happy) Here's to us!!! And many more successes!!!
