  1. Still have a little bit of pain. It's been a month and I was in a stall already but I seemed to finally lose a couple of lbs when I got on the scale today
  2. That's great! Yes, it is exciting! How is the 2 day liquid diet going? Do you feel hunrgry at all? What are you doing for liquids protein powder shakes?
  3. Hi Bobby, I had my surgery on January 23rd also. I feel the same way, my weight loss seems to be going too slow. Seems like you lost a lot real fast in the beginning and then it slowed way down. In the beginning you might have been losing alot of Water. They fill you up with alot of IV fluids when your in the hospital. I eat very little also. From what I understand that can put you in the starvation mode and it slows down your weight loss. 38 lbs is alot in a month though so that's probably why it's slowing down now. Am sure you will get back on track though. My doctor tells me not to weigh myself every day and that I should only weigh myself more like once a week. Checking your weight every day seems to make you more anxious. It's nice to talk to someone who had the surgery on the same day though. Feel free to write me anytime.
  4. Hello, I had my RNY Gastric Bypass surgery not long ago. I'm 4 weeks post op and would love to find a buddy or buddies to chat with. I live in and had my surgery in Connecticut. I'm on myfitnesspal.com.
  5. Same here I had gallstones, so I had my gallbladder removed a few months before my RNY surgery. Not crazy about the scars but hopefully in time they will be less noticeable
  6. My weight loss is going a lot slower that I had hope it would. I guess I just had it in my head that the weight would just drop off real fast. I guess I should stop weighing myself every single day also.
  7. My weight loss is going slow than I was hoping for. I guess I should try not to weigh myself every day, that might help
  8. Are you on pureed foods now? I have to eat pureed food real slow or it still hurts when it goes down. I've adding the Yoplait 100 calorie greek yogurt to my Protein shakes. I like the Quest Protein Bars also.
  9. Hi, I just had my Gastric Bypass Surgery on January 23rd. Please email me if you are interested in being WLS buddies. Would be great to have support. I had my surgery in Norwich, CT btw

  11. Hi I'm in Oakdale, CT (near Norwich, CT) I had my Gastric Bypass surgery Jan 23rd. It would be great to talk to people and find buddies in the CT area. Please feel free to email me if you'd like. Have you or will you be having your surgery soon?

  13. Hi, Finally someone from Connecticut like I am. I had my surgery on Jan 23rd. It was a long waiting process. How are things for you coming along for you?
  14. Finally had my surgery Jan 23. My stomach hurts if I eat. Just drinking Protein shakes and taking liquid Multivitamins and minerals so far
  15. It feels like something is stuck in my stomach whatever I eat or drink. Does this go away eventually or will it always feel this way after surgery? I'm also tired all the time. Food doesn't taste as good either for some reason. From what I read all this seems normal, but it still bothers me.
  16. I just had my surgery on the 23rd of Jan. It went very well. Only I keep getting stomach pains. Does anyone get pains? I'm hoping they will go away soon. It can be very uncomfortable even though it comes and goes.
  17. It looks like it's going to be Dec 24th. I'm so excited!
  18. same here my surgeon's office just submitted my paperwork to my insurance provider after 6 long months. I called the insurance provider and they confirmed they received the paperwork and that it will take up to 5 business days. I'm hoping it's sooner, can't wait! am so excited!
  19. hi i'd really like to join the group also
  20. hi did you get a december surgery date yet?
  21. I won't know until December. I am hoping I don't have to wait til January. Seems like I've waited so long since I started the process in July
  22. I'm still waiting for my surgery date. December 4th I will have completed my 6 months supervised diet insurance requirements. I'm hoping when that date comes and they submit it to my insurance that it won't take long to get approved and to get a surgery date. I am so ready to get it done already. Now I'm just counting the days..I'm not the most patient person either
  23. how do you like it on here so far? Do you have a surgery date yet?
  24. how do you like it on here so far? Do you have a surgery date yet?
  25. No, I don't have a december surgery date yet. I can hardly wait. I still have my last support group and nutritionist appointments to go t nov 25th. hoping right after that they can schedule it. i just had gallbladder surgery nov 7, but my dr says it should be no problem to be on schedule for my gastric bypass surgery.
