  1. I'm curious on this as well. I'm tired of suffering!

    First stall

    Stalls are so frustrating. I've had one at 2 weeks and 6 weeks and a small one around 9 weeks. I've heard that they can get longer the further out you are. Try and analyze your diet and see if you can tweak it a little. Otherwise, it seems you just have to wait it out. Good luck!

    Is eating fruit okay?

    I'm allowed one serving of fruit a day. 1/2 banana is a serving according to my plan. I don't always eat fruit but sometimes I'll put a banana of strawberries in my protein shake.
  4. I had same experience. I really didn't get much down the first week. It slowly got better.

    Need some inspiration

    That happens. I didn't lose much weeks 2-6 then it really started coming off.

    Will I always be cold?

    11 weeks post op and always freezing!!! I too am wondering if it's always going to be like this.

    Dizziness

    I had a couple dizzy spells in my first few weeks. I never figured out why but it got better.
  9. I don't think I could have at 9 days post op but everyone recovers differently. Good luck!
  10. Very excited today. I was able to buy jeans in Old Navy! Have never fit in their jeans. Bought a size 18 skinny jeans. Haven't worn an 18 in about 15 years! Also was able to buy size L tops. I'm 10 weeks post op and was in a 24 jeans and a 2x-3x top! It feels good!

    Bad breath...

    I was just about to post this! My husband is constantly complaining about my breath. No matter what I do it always smells bad and I have a bad taste in my mouth. I've noticed the urine smell too. I'm almost 10 weeks post op. How long does this last??

    September sleevers

    Yes! I was sleeved 9/30. I tend to stall then lose a bunch then stall again. It's very frustrating. I'm almost 10 weeks out and the scale hasn't moved in about 5-6 days. It sucks! However, I'm down 51 lbs so I'm happy about that!

    Egg salad

    I don't take the yolk out. You eat so little that I don't think it matters.
  15. I'm really starting to worry about my progress. I was 6 weeks post op yesterday. I've only lost 8 lbs in the past 4 weeks. I've lost 17 lbs since surgery and 18 in 2 week pre op for a total of 35 lbs. I just feel like things are at a stand still. I am doing everything I'm supposed to do. I get 80 gram of protein a day. I walk about a mile almost every day. I take in about 650-800 calories per day. I just returned to work yesterday and everyone was amazed at how I looked. That felt good. I guess I just assumed it would come off a little faster.
