my surgery was oct 23 of last year almost one year out. still do not regret one minute. I have stalled for the last two months though. but I am trying to stay positive. this is the longest stall I have had thus far.

did you do anything to break the stall?

i am not doing so good on eating i constantly crave grapefruit...not sure why but I do not want anything but that. my husband is fussing at me to eat some form of protein but the thought of eating is just not appealing to me at all. my surgery was Oct 23 down 46 pds

I missed food for the first 3 weeks. I am 11 weeks out and i have to force myself to eat. I am 42 and been overweight since i was 6. Can you image how wonderful it feels not to live my life constantly wanting to eat...it is truly amazing! I have lost 46 pds can't wait to see where i am at the end of 2013. It was the right decision for me. Good luck!

I can eat only 2 ounces at a time and fell stuffed if it is meat. I can only handle chicken, beef makes me nauseous. I can eat 3 oz of apple sauce though and not feel stuffed but satisfied.

hi, I am 7 weeks out tomorrow. I am in a stall too and keep telling myself well this it; your not gonna loose anymore....uugghhh I hate that. I do not crave sweets anymore because they make me ssoo sick, I can't eat fried foods anymore but I stil want to. They make me really sick too. I am kinda down today not feeling so great about anything really. This is the first time since my surgery seven weeks ago that I just feel kinda depressed about everything. It is weird, nothing specific just kinda generalized depression and short tempered. Oh well this to shall pass right!! Hope all goes well for you keep your chin up!!

not much, for some reason for the past two weeks i have been nauseated,

It is the best thing I have ever done for myself,,, did not care what other people was saying ...even my doctor tried to talk me out of it,.. he wanted me to try pills first is that not crazy...so glad I had this surgery.

I have hypothyroid..had my surgery 10-23.. I have lost 23 pounds so far. My TSH level was never normal so I am anxious to see what it will be like when i go for my blood work at the end of December.

i ate spam and egg salad too.

My tastebuds and sense of smell is very sensitive now too. Just tonight my husband had some egg drop soup and I took one teaspoon and almost threw up. The egg taste was so strong. I use to love egg drop soup. Among other things I can't stand sweet drinks not even if it is artificial sweetner in them. Drinking plain water is getting old. But its better then the alternative wich is nothing..stay strong. We will survive.

I had a headache for a week, no caffeine and no carbs will do that to you. But this too shall pass....

That is what I am scared of stretching my sleeve out because I eat to fast. Thanks

Thanks!! It seems like I feel like I need to be doing other things instead of stretching out a meal..occupational hazard
