kayjay14 got a reaction from HapyTrls in The dreaded stall
It appears to be that I am in the dreaded stall. I started my journey on Oct 28th which was my surgery date. I weighed 243. I hit 199 in the middle of January but my losing has slowed and am now down to 195. How long have you guys been in the stall and when did you start losing again???

Everyone loses differently. It depends on how much you weigh. People that way more, tend to lose more initially. I started my journey at 243 and am in a stall right now at 195 and I had surgery October 28th. Be patient, it will start to come off

So I'm a little over 3 weeks post op from gastric bypass and the scale says I lost 21 pounds however I really can't tell a difference when I look at myself. I can tell a difference in my pants in the fact that they are much looser but I really don't feel like I've lost 20 pounds. When could y'all tell a difference in your body when you looked at yourself?

I started the pureed diet yesterday and had some scrambled eggs this morning. It felt good to actually chew some food, instead of slurping it. I only did a little because I didn't want to overdo it and did not have any issues with it. I'm excited about going into this phase and start eating more textured food. I have to admit while I have been on the liquid diet, I have not felt full and didn't feel that way this morning when I tried the eggs. I guess I will feel that way when I start eating more foods...

It also may be acid reflux since every time you eat you get nauseated.

My doctor said as long as you are not on pain medicine, you can drive.

Whew guys, what a world wind the last couple of days have been. I got through the surgery but the toughest part is the gas pains. It was really bad on surgery day after surgery and it was so bad I stayed a extra day in the hospital and am now home. I am finding it difficult to sip all the time as I seem full. I am burping and passing gas the other way so I seem to be doing fine in that department. I hear my stomach making noises all the time though... Is that normal?

I can't believe that my surgery is tomorrow! I'm excited and a little nervous. Not nervous about the surgery itself but about life after surgery. I did a week preop diet and did not cheat once. I'm so proud of myself for sticking to the diet. Never in a million years would I think I could have gone a week without eating. Please pray for me, and thanks for the support

I was gun-hoe on getting the sleeve until me doctor told me that bypass is the better option for women. Women and men metabolize differently. It was a long discussion, but I'm having bypass tomorrow!

Once all the requirements were met, I was approved within the week. The doctors office didn't call me until week 2. If you're really anxious, call the insurance company and they will let you know if you are approved before the doctors office will
