  1. One month check up tomorrow. Kinda nervous to see total weight loss. I know I have been at astallmfor the past 5 days. I think the stall has been the hardest part. My mental mind really wants cookies and cheeseburgers!
  2. I was on soft foods 3 days after surgery. Did best with mashed potatoes and yogurt and star free pudding. Started eggs about day 5 after surgery. Sleeved 7/20 and down 37 pounds!
  3. I did! I just had my first one since surgery and even though I didn't eat a whole lot I felt like I could eat something every time I turned atound. I am just thankful that I no longer am craving chocolate!
  4. I Know everyone stalls at some point. But how frusturating. Need some words of encouragement!
  5. How long did your stomach stay bloated? I am 4 weeks out and am still puffy.
  6. I am 4 weeks out and my stomach is still so bloated! How long before it gets a little less puffy?
  7. When can we start doing things like Zumba!
  8. I do,the same thing! My husband is quite impressed. They don't hurt. I think it is just a way of telling us we are full.

  10. July 20th, down 24 lbs. I got real discouraged tonight when trying to find. Loathes to wear tomorrow. I figured over 20 lbs. I could certainly wear my 18's and not the 20's. Joke on me... Got mad, threw a fit in the closet, cried a little and am now over it. Guess I will try again in another 10 lbs. just hope I don't hit a stall at this point. I can only imagine what that would be like for my husband...lol
  11. Am having a hard time getting Ll the required water in. With non drinking 39 minutes before or after eating ( and eating something 6 times a day) I can't find the time to get it all in. I am still sipping, but not itsy sips. I go back to work in a week (teacher) and my principal has just enforced a rule of no drinks on desk, including water. How will I ever be able to do this?
  12. I am having the same issue. I am 3 weeks post op and have lost 23 lbs. everyone says how THIN my face is, but indon't see it. Even in pictures. I think I am so used to seeing my self with such a full face that, that is all I see now I have an appointment with my therapist next week, so I am hoping that will help. Good luck to you!
  13. ?
