I finally did and you will, too. Just hang in there and keep doing what you're doing! I finally started losing again, just not as fast as in the beginning. But, weight off is a plus no matter how fast or slow it comes off. I know there will be other stalls in the future, but we just have to be patient and keep on keeping on!

I feel exactly the same way, Angel... Here's hoping we both start on the downhill slide again soon!

Thanks ! It's good to hear from people who have had the same issue! It just gets so frustrating when I think about how little I'm taking in. And I think going up 3 pounds is what has been the most frustrating! This is the part where, before surgery, I would typically blow the diet. Good thing about being post surgery, I CAN'T go off diet! lol

Today I am 3 weeks post-op. I have had no weight loss for the last 6 days. In fact, I went UP 3 pounds from my lowest point. I'm getting frustrated and don't know what I can do to get the weight loss going again.

Khloe: please add me to the FB page. cddoyle1978@gmail.com Thanks!

It's kind of funny...I was anticipating the day-before-surgery liquid diet would be really hard. But, it's going much better than anticipated. Just have to keep myself busy today and SLAM the clear liquids ALL day! Another 6 hours and it will be bed time. I'm so excited for surgery tomorrow, I hope I can sleep! lol

Thanks so much for the info!

I'm having surgery on Thursday. (YAY!) one question I keep forgetting to ask...approximately how long does the procedure take?

I am also having surgery on the 4th! I'm so excited!!!!

That's so exciting! Good luck!, I will be right there with you next Thursday. Prayers sent up for a safe journey to the other side of your journey!

I had my pre-op with the doctor and at the hospital today. It was an insanely long day, but I was excited thru every minute of it! Several people asked me today if I was nervous...I'm too excited and have waited too long for this to be nervous. Maybe next Wed or Thurs I'll get nervous..we will see. Just 1 more week to go! Scheduled for surgery at 11:00 am on April 4th!

Tommy: I got a response from Cigna in 10 days. I've seen some get theirs in 5 days. I don't know if Cigna has different requirements with conversion surgeries, but your surgeon/surgical coordinator should know. However, if you do have to see the NUT Cigna requires 3 visits in 3 months. Good luck!

My surgery is April 4th. I'm so excited to finally get there! This is an incredible journey and opportunity. I will not take this for granted, but plan to work the rest of my life to ensure it works so that I may be blessed with more time on his earth with my wonderful husband and children (and hopefully future grandchildren!).
