Are you walking or working out? I need to start working on my arms....no motivation to workout. I can walk with friends, maybe I need to get them to join a gym with me! LOL I've only lost 1 lb since then too. I don't like the stalls. In fact after I weighed last evening, I ate some ice cream! First time I've done that. Since I got my taste and smell back I'm tasting everything. I'm craving orange juice. I wonder how that will set? I'll be trying it tomorrow.

Finally got a referral to a cardiologist. Now the wait begins for the paper work game. My primary did increase the new med I started last week. I walked 2 miles yesterday and today. I figure that won't hurt. The weather here has been beautiful. The rest of the week will be in the mid 80's but the evenings are very cool. I have on sweats now from walking but I think I could just do a t-shirt tomorrow. Hope you have a great day....I'm in OK, where are you?

Sorry, I just saw your comment. I'm doing good but feel like i'm at the 4-5 week stall. I haven't lost but 2 pounds all week. I did lose some inches, so I know it's working, just want the scales to drop too.

@vhude That is amazing! I'm almost 6 weeks post op and only down 25 lbs. You are doing great.

@vhude Dr added another b/p medication but it's not working. I just took it about 9:30 and it was 177/97. I guess I'll give my dr another call. I don't think I'm stressed more than anyone else. I try to stay calm but when I take it and it's high I get anxious.

Good luck! I was so scared I'd be in so much pain, but it's amazing how little I've had. I can't do anything sugar-free. It gives me a headache and causes my stomach to hurt. I can't even drink sugar-free lemonade. But, I've known this for several years. Once I talked my nurse into giving me regular Jell-O within 6 hours my pain was gone. I don't think my Dr believed me, but it's my body and I know it well.

Amazing! Keep up the good work. Are you feeling good?

Great news! I wish you weren't nauseated, hopefully that will get better very soon. Keep up the good work!

Have you been working out or anything? Do you have a fever?

Bless your heart...do ice chips help any?

Congrats! Are you able to get in everything needed? I keep reading stories about how hard it is to get it all in.

Thanks! If I didn't have fake nails I would be chewing them! The liquid diet is kicking my butt. I think this is the most nervous I've ever been before a surgery.
