I will what I want

Well, that's a drag. I hope you are protected by "safe haven." Insert (expletive) here.

I had a 3.5 week stall and it finally broke a couple of days ago. I'm almost 4 months out. I only weigh myself about every month so I miss the details of most stalls (and I don't go crazy) but it was so upsetting to get on the scale after almost a month and have it be the same. Anyway, I kept to my plan and it's over now. I did notice that I was still looking smaller and my clothes were getting looser, scale just didn't budge. So frustrating! I'm just so glad I didn't freak out and throw in the towel and go back to poor eating (like I would have with a "diet").

You are lucky! Count your blessings. I've had quite a few challenges and the last few months have been hard. Enjoy your luck!

I will be 6 weeks tomorrow and I'm also exhausted. Also irritable and emotional. This is a big surgery and change. I'm trying - with different degrees of success - being patient with myself. Thanks for the thread - It's good to know I'm not the only tired one!

I have a cpap and I have had to lower the pressure several times since surgery. I wake up with a hurting stomach from air in my stomach. My settings started really high...ipap 19 and epap 16. I've lost 20 pounds since the pre-surgery liquid phase. My settings are now around 17/14. My advice is to pay attention and adjust your settings as needed. Good luck.

Yes, this is happening to me. I have gone to MD twice and everything appears normal. I was told it could last as long as 6 weeks. Annoying and frustrating. In my mind, I would be out climbing a monta in at 4 weeks out. The reality is we r still in recovery and to be kind and patient with ourselves. -Shellie

Same thing is happening for me. I'm super frustrated. I've spent the last month pretty much on my back in bed because the pain is awful. Have been to the doctor twice and he says it's all normal and fine. I'm completely regretting this surgery right now. My weight loss has been slow even though my calories are low etc. :-(. Doesn't seem worth it at all right now. Hopefully later it will. Today, not so much.

Hi all. How kind that you all asked. My surgery was 3.5 weeks ago and unfortunately I'm having a lot of pain and can't sit upright to sew. It is super annoying. I've got some patterns prepped...My problem is that I'm not sure I want to actually cut anything out until I'm further along in my weight loss. I am a perfectionist about sewing - even when I try not to be - so it would be like me to put in a bunch of hours on something and then have it not fit...since I won't be able to do a proper fitting for a long time. I DO have some amazing Missoni knit that I can make into a long cardigan though. Just need to get on the other side of this incision pain......best to all!

Isopure clear protein drinks.

I haven't had any food break -downs, Per se. I do cry a couple of times a day though. It feels like hormones to me...I hope it passes soon because I burst into tears suddenly. Then it's over and I move on. I read that it's the hormone release from the quick weight loss. Thoughts?

How are you all doing?

I had a post here and every time I post it words get changed and deleted. It is really really weird. In short, I use Isopure when I feel like I can't get anything else down. I get the 7.5 bottles which have 15 grams of Protein. Get it really cold and that helps the flavor too. Good luck. I'm sure others will have ideas as well. :-)

I feel you CGJ - it's totally unfair that you/me/us can't eat whatever we want. It really is and I protest with you!!!! I say rant away - get it all out - and then go do something that makes you feel good. How about spending some of that money you aren't spending on food on massages/clothes/manis? Whatever it is that makes you feel valued and taken care of. Also, I want to point out how generous you are with your sons and Ex. It takes a woman of character, love, and generosity to continue to invite an ex into to her life for the benefit of her sons. I celebrate that woman! Please do the same. Much love, Shellie

My Nut said it was from being in Ketosis. (Burning stored fat for fuel). And that it would likely go away in maintenance.

Me too!
