    Strange Odor

    Could u be dehydrated? Perhaps it's the urine? I remember when I was pre op and eating horribly, I never drank water..I had this issue..my yoga pants even carried the small from that area. As soon as I increased my water the smell has stopped.
  2. Uve probably hit the dreaded 3 week stall. I'm 3 weeks out today. Stuck at 248. Although I'm weighing everyday so seeing stalls more often. Are u weighin everyday? I know I'm the pot calling the kettle black but try to weigh every week instead, probably will never see a stall

    Swallowing Pills

    After they saline locked my IV in the hospital I got sick in the evening and they couldn't administer gravol through my IV. They gave me gravol by mouth and I tolerated it fine

    Is This "normal"

    To be honest, not really...I was 280 at my highest 260 the day of surgery. Yesterday I was 248 so 12 lbs since surgery almost 3 weeks ago. I was obsessing over the scale totally beat myself yesterday for gaining a pound so I had a family member hide the scale. I get it back next Friday lol. Going to focus on my Water and Protein intake this week

    Choosing A Goal Weight

    I am close to 3 weeks post op now. My doctor said not to focus on a goal weight but its easier to achieve ur goals when u focus on smaller goals (ie focus on losing 20lbs first month) because I'm only 5'0, in order for me to be a "normal" BMI I need to be 124. 125 I'm overweight. I have been 130 before and looked disgusting. But do I really want to do something as big as VSG to be 150lbs (I think this is where I will look healthy) and still be considered overweight? I brought this up with my surgeon. He said my body will decide when it's done losing weight

    The Newbie From Canada.

  10. That's an insane amount of weight to lose in a week. If u keep going at that rate u will lose 40lbs in a month where as the average for 1st month is 20-30lbs. I am 2.5 weeks out and total of 13lbs lost since surgery. I started at 260 day of Surgery. Don't worry ur doing fine

    Shrimp - What Else Can You Fix With It?

    My mind is playing tricks on me. I thought the first line in ur entry was "like hot dogs"? Instead of like hot food! U can see how badly I have been craving a hot dog lol
  16. So today I went for my first post op massage. Before surgery I went once a week but I booked my massage 2 weeks after surgery so I could be able to lay on my tummy. Felt amazing! Just put a pillow under my tummy for comfort but probably didn't need it. Now one thing that I noticed was different..when she worked on my back I burped a lot! It was weird..I have never had that much gas before. I wonder if its possible to still have trapped gas 2 weeks after surgery. Was kind of embarrassing..but felt good to get it out lol
  17. I'm driving myself crazy here. I know I shouldn't be, but I'm weighing myself everyday. Been stuck at 248.2 for 3 days...gaaaahhh! I'm 2 weeks post op on Tuesday. I know I should do it once a week but I want to be held accountable for my days and to be able to wake up every morning (like today) and think of what I need to do to make the next day better (more water? More protein) ahhhhh
  18. What about mio mixed in ur water or crystal light? I have been drinking the diet cranberry juice by ocean spray
