  1. I have been in a stall for way over a month.It's really piss

    ing me off. I lost allot the fist month but nothing hardly since real food. I'm keeping the journal, trying to stay away from anything too carby. I'm stuck at 60 lbs down which is where I always got stuck even when I did it on my own. Which is starting to make me get those old feelings again...You know the why am I bothering feeling. That and I tried working out this past week and strained my back(it doesn't take much) and I can't even take ibuprofen or aleves. Tylenol does nothing for my back and on my good meds I can't drive on so I can only take them at night. It's annoying but I'm still fighting. I hate the taste of Water since surgery. But I still fight. And found out I still cant deal with tuna. So I have feeling lousy ate it this afternoon. Try again next month. Sorry I'm Debby Downer today but I just had to let it go


  2. I get dumping too. My other problem is that my sleeve is tempermental. I can eat something one day then the next it makes me feel horrible. I never know what is going to set it off. It could be just feeling yucky or a straight up diarrhea or foaming. I have thought that it may be eating too much or too fast but I don't think that is the case. I usually have an egg and 2 pieces of bacon. Yesterday it was fine, today not so much. Been in the bathroom since 20 minutes after I ate it. Yuck


  3. I was sleeved March 2nd of this year. I've lost 55 lbs and I'm happy about that but I have been in a stall since my last drs appt on April 4th I haven't lost any weight since then. I've tracked my food, upped my calories to 800-1000. I'm still not able to do much exercise wise because of my back and knees but I walk some. In the past I have never been able to lose more than what I have now and I have at least another 120 to go. I'm really starting to get bummed out,I even had an ice cream last night. I know that doesn't help but I was weak. I'm not even a big ice cream fan so I don't know why I did it. I'm drinking a Protein Shake now and am back on the wagon. I'm just wish I could get the scale to move. I'm usually very optimistic but I'm g feeling defeated. Thanks for letting me vent.


  4. 16 lb is awesome. Keep it up girl! I agree with cowgirljane if they can't be supportive them don't give them any info. Why share good news with people who don't cheer you on? I would take it as a sabotage to make you feel bad and go back to your old ways. Don't let it happen! If you need cheerleaders you can come here.


  5. I was sleeved 3/2 and I'm stalled already. I haven't lost any weight for over a month. I still only eat a couple bites of a meal and I'm done but that scale is going no where. I tried to up my calories to 1000 a day. My carbs are no more than 50 a day. I figured since I had so much to lose that any stall would come and go. Notsomuch :-\ Pretty bummed. I've been drinking gatorade(low cal 1 a day) and I've been retaining allot of Water so no more of that. My ankles are pretty swollen. I still have no taste for water but I force it but I know I'm not getting enough.


  6. After surgery you will never think you took the easy way out again. None of this is easy. I'm 2 months out and it's still hard. I can't eat some things, I get upset stomach . Sometimes I cook something abd eat it and be fine the next day eat the leftovers and get sick. Everything depends on how my stomach feels. Sometimes I fake it till I make it and just throw some make up on and go on tho I feel like I might(and sometimes do) barf. None of this is easy


  7. Depending on your insurance if you want to do this but the end of the year you need to get to it. Depending on the hoops your insurance makes you jump.

    Where do you live? I would suggest making a post here asking if anyone in your area has any recommendations for a doctor. If not then start with your insurance company. Look for a circle of excellence hospital to make sure you get the best care.

    Referral from your primary may or may not be requirement but you need to speak to your insurance company to see what they need.

    So to summarize(lol) make a post now asking for recommendations and call your insurance to see their requirements.

    Good luck sweetie
