@@stephh sorry its late 201

@@Indieflickers - thanks for explaining

@@BaileyBariatrics - funny I was going to post about "net carbs" and see if anyone could explain them to me.

@@Shainadelphia - yes it could be the hormones getting stabilized. How old are you? I had my first "night sweat" about 6 years ago at 46...gross. Could it be menopause?

I agree I notice that I seem to "stall" when I would have normally had a TOM, which I haven't had frequently since I am now menopausal. I just don't freak out too much unless I start gaining. Then I just keep an eye on it to make sure I don't get past 5 or so and generally I drop that amount, plus some, in a day or so.

@@Indieflickers - Not to sound stupid but what is "jawbone", besides the obvious meaning?

@@agalindo17 - you can also buy a stool or "rest" that fits along side your toilet on-line, especially if you are a bit heavier, and don't want to test out a stool that may or may not support your weight.

@@bellabloom - I agree with @@LipstickLady no more than 5 - use it as a "bounce" range you look awesome, by the way!

@@heav85 I was thinking the same this as the OP...get an OTC and eat something small before you take your other meds. You may want to move your BC to a time of the day, when you are not sick (in the am), maybe later....?

@@australian marie - NO. It is probably a combination of a couple of things - fluids your body is still holding onto post- surgery and your body adjusting to its new "normal". Stay the course and OFF the scale. You are probably also headed towards the dreaded 3 week stall (they happen), so again...stay the course and OFF the scale

@@Elode - that is an excellent NSV!

sorry having issues posting with my kindle.... sorry having issues posting with my kindle....

I am hovering there too...203, 202.... for two weeks! congrats!

@@GoogleGal8 - he just called and wants to be bailed out. 30k in case he jumps is way too much for me to bite off. I agree he needs to figure it out (life) minus me being his fallback person ALL the time.

grief counseling? my dad died when i was seven and my mom 16 years later. my mom's sister is like my mom....I cannot imagine life without her. my youngest is legal trouble and she has stepped up. post surgery is trying enough without the drama. I read a lot and have been walking. 24 w/o goes in front of judge Wednesday and like you I am stressing.

ditto everyone else response!

@@GoogleGal8 - the 30th he goes back I infront of the judge....I am about sick to my stomach...been a long 5+ weeks.

*hell

@@jeanniereenie son goes in front of judge Wednesday. hubby says no to him coming back home....if he gets released. past few weeks have been bell.

I tried to go caffeine free post and gave that up. I drink 2 cups, black, everyday. I occasionally add a flavored SF creamer. I get a cappuccino once in a while, its moderation for me.

@@itstimealready - I had the sleeve and have a "desk job" too. I am required to lift 40# so I had to be careful and NOT lift anything over 10# until I was cleared with doctor. I had surgery on Wednesday and went back to work not that Monday, but the week following....went nuts at the house. I should've gone back that first Monday. I had no gas pains, vomiting, etc. I am very blessed with my WLS and recovery..... No Regrets!

@@Bufflehead you always give great advice! I love reading your responses.

@ - are you doing the Halloween challenge? I love it because it challenges me.

@ good morning! I deal with the same thing around that TOM even though I am menopausal and haven't had one in about 4 months. I don't know if doctors give RXs for Water retention post surgery because we already are kind of high risk for dehydration usually if you are retaining it means one of two things. too much salt or you are not drinking enough fluids and your body is saving (retaining) every last ounce because it's doing what it thinks is right. IMO...check salt contents in food, make sure you are drinking Fluid that are also low in caffeine and stay off the scale. good luck and I am dealing will the same issue. Scale will move....just have to stay the course and off the scale!
