When I first mentioned the surgery to my husband, he was like no way...are you crazy??? The lapband had failed me and I felt I didn't have any other choice. Once he realized that I had researched the procedure, he stepped back to see how everything else went. The EKG, bloodwork, NUT appt, psych eval, etc, etc. One the date was scheduled, he was like...I can't believe it! Well, here we are almost 9 mos later and he couldn't be happier for me. He compliments me and shows me how proud he is of me. He even told me to go ahead and buy a whole new wardrobe once I am at goal! Yeah baby!!! Hang in there, hopefully he will realize you are doing this for YOU! Good luck!

I just started weighing myself every day. WHY??? I don't know. I'm putting up the scale and will start weighing in on Wednesdays!

Glad it finally got approved. Sometimes it's an idiot processing claims.

Yes, it's normal. It's a way for our bodies to get used to the weight loss. Great loss...keep it up. Good luck!

The super bowl game food should not be an issue. You are doing this for you. Hang in there. It will get better! Good luck!!

Sorry to hear your're not sleeping well. The only time I had vivid dreams was when the dr had me trazadone. Oh boy...some dreams scared the crap out of me. Anyway, I hope you get some good zzzzz's soon. Good luck!

I have hit my 5th stall since my surgery in May 2012. I usually do a 3-day liquid diet. I also drink lemon water daily-regardless if i'm at a stall or not. It gets your metabolism going for the day. Try it! It might work for you as well. Good luck!

I'm going on the liquid diet for a couple of days. Hopefully, this wil get things going...good luck!

Congrats!

So glad your feeling better. Congrats on the surgery.

Get some sugar free jello and sugar free popsicles. I know it's hard, but you both can do it! Good luck!

I agree. Be happy...we are all in this together. Each persons journey is different and we can all learn from eachother! Good luck on your journey and thank you posting.

Hang in there and do get discouraged. I know it's easier said than done. Maybe you can do a 1-3 day liquid diet to get things moving. Good luck!

Good for you! You look great!

Prayers and hugs going your way! I hope you get better soon!
