  8. stalls are normal, don't worry it'll fix itself
  9. Hi!! i'm no spring chicken either, i'm 48 and i'm not old so neither are you!! welcome to our group, we have great ladies in here. you should join in our text group as well. glad to hear you're doing so well, it really is worth it in the end
  10. to quickly satisfy the sweet tooth, a piece of Whitman's sugar free chocolate or Werther's Original sugar free chewy caramels. totally delish!! oh one more thing, nestle makes a sugar free frozen fruit pop, that's great to curb cravings..
  11. hi and welcome, me too Happily Divorced!!!
  12. welcome, what kind of issues are you having?
  13. have you spoken to your doctor/NUT?? it may be that you're healing slowly and maybe you just need an extra week or so on the pureed food???? i wish i could help ya out but i think your best bet would be to give your doctor's office a call and ask them about it because everyone's healing process is soooooooooo different. do you chew your food until it's like puree before you swallow?? i still do that and i think will have to eat like that from now on because it makes digestion easier. and i hear ya about the eating slow, i'm still having issues with that.
  14. are you in the regular food stage?
  15. @chilepeppr4 I'm on Long Island.. Starting the process with my first appointment 11/13 welcome and good luck and congratulations on your journey. if you have any questions feel free to pm me
  16. Hiya, i had a stall on my 4th week also but by week 5 i started losing again. i'm at week 6 now. as they say on here, don't be discouraged, stalls happen, it's just your body adjusting good luck!
  17. Hiya, good luck and if you need to talk you can pm me. i'm in Queens.
  18. i had an umbilical hernia repair at the same time and had to wear it for 1 month. I also wore it snug. If you don't have a hernia repair they don't make you wear it. I was so glad at my 1 month appt when they said i didn't need it any longer.
