72 pounds wow what are you doing? That's great! Did you have the sleeve?

I had my surgery August 25th and I'm doing great!

what's it about?

I don't like the way that place is setup. I didn't like that doctor that's why I went to Alexandria.

Im no longer drinking Powerade!

I walk 45 minutes on the treadmill daily. I drink water all day and one powerade and two premier protein shakes a day. As for seasoning I use Weber Salt Free Seasoning.

I can't wait until the new season comes out.

I only drink water and Powerade Zero along with my Protein shakes. I really don't eat a lot of stuff other then chicken. Im calling my doctor first thing Monday morning. What's the Halloween Challenge?

I am almost five weeks out and I have had two stalls. I eat like I'm supposed to. I get in all my protein and fluids but I noticed I'm retaining water. Is there something I can do about this? Do doctors prescribe fluid pills for this condition? I'm very aggravated and frustrated. This is really affecting me mentally. I need some serious advice. The scales are not moving at all.

I'm almost five weeks out stalled after my first 16 days for a total of 11 days but I lost five pounds this week. It is very depressing and makes me feel like was this really worth it. I know the results will show in the long run I just didn't want to be one of those slow losers.

I pray that you feel better.

And yes it really pushed a nerve. But I weighed at the doctors office today and I'm down three more so I hope my stall is over.

Thanks lady. I cant wait until I'm down 100 lbs or more. I joined the gym today so that should help.

Congratulations on beginning your journey. I was sleeves on July 21 of this year. I am super grateful for no issues, no food problems, etc. I had my 8 week check today and I am at 40lbs. Only thing I would do different, is not get discouraged during the early stalls. Mine lasted almost 2 weeks...then suddenly, I started dropping. The big the I didn't notice, etc through my clothes and I needed to realize it, I was still losing inches. So now, I just remind myself, it's going to come off, just be patient! This is the same problem I had. I stalked for ten days then finally I'm down three pounds! Yay me. I know I was losing inches but I wanted to see numbers on the scale. I am also down 40 pounds as of today. How much are you dropping in a week?

I've lost more dieting too, but with this surgery your chances of gaining the weight back is usually slim. Most people just start eating whatever that's how they gain weight back after the surgery. We need something to jump start our metabolism.

My doctor gave me two cards saying "The bearer of this card has had gastric limiting surgery and can only eat small portions of food. Please allow him/her to purchase a child's plate".

Thanks everyone is telling me I'm doing great but I sure don't feel like I am.

I know I should be patient but it's very hard. I'm getting in 60 of protein and I drink water all day. I just thought I would lose much faster then this though. I will call my nutritionist on Monday and I think I'm going join the gym.

Can you all please tell me what you eat during an average day? I had my surgery on August 25th and I'm down 37lbs and I've been at a stall for over a week. People are telling me that I'm not eating enough but I just don't have an appetite. I need some sample menus. I walk four times a week at three miles and I'm so aggravated. HELP!!!!!

Brand ? Type? Let us know because I hate pills and mildly detest gummies!www.patchmd.com
