I'm only 2 weeks out but I have heard about the dreaded 3 week stall. The only thing I've read was to increase your fluid and protein intake but I would like to know what to do as well once my time comes

You may also need to increase your calorie intake especially if you are exercising

thank you.

Glad you made it! keep us posted!

way to go! that is incredible!!! is that total weight loss from before and after surgery? or just post op?

I read through the comments here: http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/195065-you-know-you-lost-weight-when/ just to remind myself why I was doing this

You're supposed to get nervous: It's surgery. To keep calm as possible, leave a couple of simple preparations for the last two days so that you're occupied until you head out to the hospital. For example, on surgery morning, change the sheets. It's something to do and, if you want a nap when you get home, the bed will be fresh and crisp. Last-minute mind-occupiers should be at home only; get the shopping done by a couple of days before surgery.

nervousness is normal but you got this!!!

Congrats!!

Hooray! Good job getting down to the right weight!

Fantastic!

I don't post much but @Elode is cracking me up!

You're welcome!

Congrats! That is a great feeling to get that last appt done! Fingers crossed you get approved fast!

Praying all goes according to plan! Three months next week and down 49 lbs!!!

@Daisee68 Thank you so much. @marybowlus Congrats I can not wait until I can say the same thing.
