    Depressed Not Losing

    nieuwevis replied to DiamondDior's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums

    oh, and stalls happen. body is just adjusting to all the changes, so the scale might not move for a while. my longest stall was maybe 4 or 5 weeks...i was like ahhhhh! lol but it's good when they happen, and you need some motivation, check your tape measurements or try on something new...oftentimes during a stall, the scale doesn't move but those inches keep falling off.

    daisee, we're only a few days apart in our surgery dates. you've rocked it girl! sorry if this has already been mentioned, but what are your plastic surgery goals? i'm 150 this morning (1 lb from "normal" bmi...have never been a normal bmi!), and i love my reflection i always said i wanted to have the figure of a plus sized model, and i'm in an 8 now, but i think with the extra skin gone i'd go down one size, which seems pretty perfect.

      Good news. Yes, sublingual B12 is more readily absorbed. I like Nature's Bounty for its cherry flavor.

      I get my sublingual B-12 from Sams's club, you can get year supply for less than $20. I want to say less than $14

      thanks for the tip guys! i'm in holland, so i'll ask my dr about the sublinguals. my sister in law is a nurse, and she's been gracious enough to give me the shot :) but if i can avoid that, score! lol

    lol we went out for dinner the other night, and i was so sure that i wanted spaghetti. girl, i didn't eat any of the Pasta and all of the meatballs. that really was so funny to me, because i really wasn't a meat eater before. i ate it, but i primarily ate carbs. i swear the next time we go there i'm going to ask them to hold the spaghetti.
  30. nieuwevis
    i'm late to the conversation, but my issue was overeating bad foods, i was a total carboholic. now, seriously, even the thought of rice and Pasta makes my face scrunch up. i live in the netherlands, and i'd been craving some good chinese and mexican (cause both are terrible here!), and i could put a hurting on some fried rice and nachos. but now...blecch! hey good luck to you on your journey!
