I have never on any diet even with massive exercise have been able to get below 200lbs. That is why I decided on the sleeve. My MD's had never seen anyone who on 800 cals a day who didn't lose weight and then there was me. I guess I am just so sick of trying so hard and not getiing results. I know I am whinning. I will stop. LOL
I had my surgery Oct 24 2012 and I am now having a bad stall. It has been almost 21/2 weeks and no loss. I was 248 and now 214 and can't get past that. I have a hard time eating and a real hard time drinking. I hope this isn't where it stops.
I take B12 injections every week. You can get a script and either do them yourself or have another do them. I sure know when I miss a week. Some of us are cursed with not being able to absorb B12 any other way but through the muscle. I say its worth a try? Have you had your B12 levels checked??
I went Oct 24 to Spokane to Rockwood clinic. Great experience so far. My MD was great. I am doing follow up here with my family MD but will go back to Spokane in 6 months. Everyone was very supportive. Being an OR nurse myself I knew what I wanted in a doctor and Alaska just didn't have it. Where are you in Alaska? Did you have surgery here?
Hi, had my surgery October 24th. I am down 20 lbs. I started back to work last week and i am very tired. I to am not getting enough protein. The water is the hard thing, best way I find is hot as a cup of tea. Is anyone havng trouble sleeping on there side? The only comfortable position is on my back.
Energy is something I sure don't have. 1/2 day at work and I'm done. I'm not used to being so inactive. I don't think the cold and darkness of Alaska helps either.
