  2. Dont worry youre just at a stall. It happends to a lot of people you can read about it all on here. Just keep doing what youre doing. Around your 3rd month you should start seeing huge differences. Im starting my 3rd week today and my second week i didnt lose a thing. My first i lost 10 lbs... i guess im at my stall... just have patience. Youll get to your goal eventually

    wow im so glad i stumbled upon your page.... my first week i lost 10lbs and i was estatic. i was like yes this is finally happening to me!! then this week all ive gone down is 1 lb and im feeling so sad. ive even told myself to walk more, maybe im not doing something right, maybe im being lazy. but your post just really turned my thought process upside down. i will not be negative any longer!!! everything comes with time and im happy with every single pound i get to lose!
  4. ive been stuck at 207 since last saturday... ive lost 10lbs so far this is my second week... i wonder if ill be stuck like that for a long time ... i hope not and i just got upgraded to Protein shakes at my second week and liquid yogurt, and blended soups... everything else i still gotta eat. broth liquids stuff like that
  5. Im 23 started at 227 now im down to 207... im one week post op and have lost 10lbs. I notice mostly in my face and my stomach where the weightloss is taking place but family members notice also in my arms which have been really obese since i was a child. So regarding elastisity im only a week post but my skin seems to be tightening up along with ny weight loss :l hopefully it doesnt change !! Im dying to get rid of the fat arms without surgery. I also bought a 4lb weight
  6. Thanks everyone for your responses. Im definitely understanding now as time passes. I guess i just overthink because i dont wanna end up rupturing anything haha but i know ill be okay.. thank you again :-)
  7. Haha the losers bench yeah yeah im trying to get as much liquids as I can thats where my fear comes that maybe.im overdoing it but its true solids will be much more noticible. I start Protein shakes next week yay
  8. Im 5 days post op and im just on liquids. I know its only liquids but how do I know if I reached my limit? I never feel full. I dont feel hungry much cuz im drinking liquids all day so I dont wanna hurt my pouch... I to take small sips but is that enough to keep it from filling up?
  9. Blah that kinda sucks but I will keep hope alive... my aunt says she notices them a bit smaller so I hope Maybe they do change. I dont see a difference but oh well So they didnt lose weight at all? And thank you I will ask my doc tomorrow when I can start. Cuz I feel maybe I ned that Vitamin help
  10. I really dislike sleeping on my back. I wake up so tense and with muscle aches. Did anyone find a way to sleep more comfortable. Im a tummy sleeper mostly and also like to sleep on my right side but it feels like all my organs shift when i do that lol so I keep it safe.
  11. Im 3 days post op and Ive been having the same problem!!! When I woke up after surgery I sounded like I was having an asthma attack from the panic and the pain. I could barely breathe. The first day after I had chest pains constantly from the gasses and all the soreness but walking really helped relieve them. Now im still a bit sore on my left lung and my throat but each day it gets better. Good luck!
  12. Hmm good to know I was worried maybe I missed one of my doctors orders. Besides my surgeon I was dealing with like 3-5 different doctors. Hard to keep up... but thank you.
  13. Hey guys. Im 23 and just decided to change my life. On june 29 2013 I had my surgery. My highest weight was 230 and ive been obese since I was about 8 years old. My biggest problem was always my arms. They were morbidly obese compared to thw rest of my body and getting ridiculed by kids was a def punch to my confidence. Growing up I could never use a short sleeve shirt and that was pretty much my main issue. My body was some what okay in weight. I was a 9/10 til I met my best friend when I was 16' she was going thru a rough time and I was there to console her but I got stuck with her eating habits. In a year I went up to a size.16 and when I finally decided to do something.about it. I went down to a 14. My highest weight has always been 230 but I could never go below 215. My nutritionist said it was because I ate too littlw. I would be satisfied with one big meal a day. Big no no. I decided to do my surgery in venezuela. And the month I was here before my surgery I started at 227 and managed to lose 10 lbs just by eating healthy and three times a day. Ive.been three days post op I havent weighed by self yet but my family says they could aee a difference already. I take my drain out tomorrow. Minor pain. I have a concern tho my doc didnt tell me to take any Vitamins. I will ask him tomorrow but did anyone start vitamins later on?and also sis anyone have a problem with thwir arms like me? How were your results in them losing weight post surgery. Btw I love this forum so much great advice and support!!! [ATTACH]14906[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]14907[/ATTACH]
