  3. Thanks ladies!! I think I'm gonna go with nuvaring..
  4. I was on the pill before surgery. But stopped about 2 weeks before. I'm not on anything right now. And I'm afraid the pill will affect my weight loss. What's your experience with weight loss post op??? HELPP
  5. How much are you taking? Has it worked for you? I have been taking 4,000 MCG. Come to find out I need 1000 MCG to get 1 MG.
  6. Me too! Good experience. Try that. And don't weigh yourself for a few days. Hide the scale! Stephanie
  7. I finally kicked it!! I'm 196 now:) I just stopped working out for a few days and drank lots of water. It worked. Do something different. Trick your body. Drink more water or less or less protein. Did you have surgery with dr. Garcia?
  8. How much have you lost so far?

  10. I'm gonna stop working out. And maybe go back to the 3 week diet restriction for a few days and see if that changes anything. Trust me I hate it. Being stuck at 201. I need to throw out the scale. Because it's just stressing me out.
  11. Yeah I've noticed I haven't been drinking as much water, so I'm drinking a lot now.
  12. Maybe I need to put away the scale lol
  13. So I'm 7 weeks out from surgery pre op weight 231 current weight 201. I have been stalled at 201 for about a week and a half or so. I'm worried I'm doing something wrong. Some days I have a protein shake, 8oz of milk, 2 splendas, cinnamon and 2 scoops of isopure unflavored 25g per scoop. For lunch I have chicken breast with black beans or mashed potates And something similar for dinner. I work out 4x a week 20 min power walk on 6.0 incline and jog for about 12 mins. What am I doing wrong? Please helpppppp
  14. Thanks for the encouragement!!! I'm Not even three weeks yet, I've been stalled since about 2 and a half weeks. Is this stall still normal so early on? Lost about 18 so far. Sleeved on 3/8. Pre op weight 231...
  15. I'm 3 weeks post op, and I think I'm hitting a stall!! I fluctuate between 212 and 213. One day I'm 212 the next 213 and so on... I'm frustrated I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Please some advice or suggestions! Stephanie
  16. Thanks so much!! That's encouraging:)
