  1. I know it's hard to hear but...... It will pass. You have hit a stall. Once passed it the weight will just come off. Make sure you are getting your protein and water. That's all you can do at this stage.
  2. Week 9 post op. Down 43 pounds.

  5. I was the same way. Couldn't use ice before. But now I need ice. I can take about 3 gulps too. But I am not hitting my water (or protein) goal. I keep trying.

  7. I have one poking out now too. Oh I am so glad you posted your question. I think it's a stich. I tried using tweezers and quickly stopped. Not a good idea. I am going to call my doc office today.

  9. the spray helped me. I got it post op. Keep it on my nightstand. During the night I can reach over and get it. Dehydration is a major issue. Mouth dryness is bad in the middle of the night.
  10. I know my husband is going to leave me. Another 30 pounds and that will be one of his excuses.
  11. I am starting 4 weeks. I eat almost everything. Except hard meats and vegetables. Try scrambled egg. Refried beans is a good one too.

  15. My doctor had me swallowing pills day 2. I had surgery Monday. Tuesday I was taking pills, whole.
  16. I am going on 4 weeks post op. I have lose 32 pounds since starting pre op. And today my husband said I am lazy. He thinks I could have lose the weight with exercise and limiting how much I eat. I told him I did not have the Will power. He said we won't be able to go out and enjoy ourselves at a buffet. He has never had a weight problem. He is clueless. I asked him does he think we would have a better time out if I ate 3 plates of food than if I ate a small plate of food. He said no but he's just know getting it. He saw how much I ate tonight. He said that's not enough. I had almost 3oz. 3oz is my limit. My husband is clueless and non-supportive. I am glad we have an online support resources.
  17. I have entered the 3week stall arena!!!! Not happy about it. ????????????

  19. . I have lost 30 pounds. I have hit the 3-week stall. Recovery wasn't that bad. In the hospital for 2 nights. Feeling pretty well. Weighing food is a must for me. Eating to much is a killer. Hurts like ****.

  21. I did. But based on what other people have written I am not the norm. I have never vomited. However a few times I ate to much and then felt like I was going to die. Listen to your body. Don't over do it. I started soft foods at 2 weeks. I am starting week 4 tomorrow and I eat almost anything as long as it fairly soft. And I chew well
