Stall
Good luck everyone but I know you'll b fine. I think we have gotten so used to trying diets and failing that when we hit a stall we think its happening all over again. But this time is different. U will lose the weight. Just have faith and do what drs and nut tell u and you will see.

Stall
I had ended up in emergency twice for dehydration. Thats the period I noticed the scale wasnt moving. When I upped my water and getting my protein in I noticed the scale moving in the right direction

Stall
Thats normal. A lot of people hit a stall. I hit mine at about 2 1/2 weeks and it picked up again about a week or 2 later. Make sure your drinking your water

has anyone had to go back into surgery after sleeve
I was sleeved april 9. Everything was perfect with The sleeve. i started having pain one day and vomitting non stop. Now on may 15 i have to go back in since they found cysts on my ovaries. One is 10cm and cant wait. They cant do it lap. because im still healing so they have to go old school and do bikini cut. Has anyone had to go back into surgery so quick? and did everthing work out ok?

back in for surgery
Thanks. They admitted me in hospital. Was very dehydrated and still vomiting. Hopefully I can go home today but still waiting

Not getting any help from obgyn. Going to see surgeon in the morning. Hopefully he can help manage the pain. I have had no protein in about a week. And keep getting dehydrated.

I'm in the medical field.
If theres one thing I cant stand is a snobby ass nurse who thinks shes better than everyone else. Ive been a nurse for 9 years and love the cnas I work with. I even get down and dirty with them and change attends and wash my patients. Cnas are one of the hardest workers in the medical field. A lot of times they know more about their patients then the nurses. A degree does not make u better than anyone. Its a degree thats it
