MisPetunia

seems like the third week plateau is common, I've read about others experiencing this and I myself have not lost anything the last four days of my third week

had surgery on 7/23, back to work on 8/11, not much pain at all, lot of nausea and gas, can't stomach protein shakes, and almost everything tastes disgusting, I am not getting enough protein but am working on it every day, I've lost 17 lbs in three weeks

I feel your pain. Nothing tastes good and Protein shakes make me gag. I am on soft foods now but I can't stomach them either.

My case is like pjhoyt's. The first think people noticed was my face, then neck, then boobs and back. I am waiting to see the result on my belly! I want to see a waist.

Dlcloggin please send me a copy as well. I would very much appreciate it. molinaleti@yahoo.com

we are at the same stage, today I had a boiled egg for the first time but I threw up for lunch I had a tiny bit of sardine but could not tolerate the smell for dinner I was able to have chicken lunch meat although it feels like it is stuck in my throat overall today was painful, maybe my body is not ready for soft foods

Dawnakers, I agree with CashNCamsMom. Call your nurse or see you doctor SOON.

I can't imagine what all have been through or are going through. I can only hope that you have loved ones that support you and keep you company. From where I am, I send you positive thoughts and prayers.

@itsmekarenlee-- at least now you know the cause and can treat it, nice that the boss is supportive. Hang in there. This too shall pass.

itsmekarenlee-- I hope all works out with your husband, will keep you guys in my prayers

Hello Lovebug. My RNY surgery was on July 23rd. I am learning right side along you too.

Hi Spharticus, I am glad your surgery went well. How are you feeling post-op? Mine was on the 23rd.

are you drinking 64oz of Water? thirst is often confused for hunger

Pik, I am so sorry that you are going through so much. I will be sure to keep you in my prayers.
