Just when I finally saw the scale move... bam.. the next morning it said two more pounds. Ugh Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App Gaining is also part of losing. During my stall I went up two pounds too. But I didn't let that discourage me of my ultimate goal. I have another 60 lbs to lose and this is just the begging. Hang in there. Keep tracking your meals and Water intake. Don't cheat on your meals and your stall will break. I promise.

I usually add unflavored protein to my regular protein and I can get more for one bang. I do one scoop of unflavored isopure with one premier and you get 59 grams right there. Sometimes I can't finish it. I'm trying to hold on to my hair and keep my calories low with high protein intake.

Hello everyone. My stall was for two weeks. Though my fat percentage kept going down my weight wouldn't. Then one morning I woke up and didn't feel like weighing myself but I did and bam. 2 lbs less. I'm happy that that's over. I've lost 24 lbs total now. Looking forward to losing much more

I'm only 3 weeks post op and I feel like I'm hungry all the time because It's that time of the month soon. I don't always give in but I can't wait for this to pass. I've been on the same weight for about 10 days. Hate it. I've also been having tons of mood swings. I feel bad for the hubby sometimes

I'm April 18th too. I've been doing do good I've been on solids for Almost 10 days Now. Don't know if it's coincidence but have been stalling on the weight loss. I've lost 22 lbs since the preop so I'm happy about that. I get really bored drinking the protein in the morning. It takes all morning to be able to finish. Some days I feel like I can eat more that others. I've gotten scared already because I feel I'm eating so much more than the first day. I know I won't be able to eat like I used to but sometimes fear and panic kicks in. I'm almost on that time of the month so I've been craving chocolate - but haven't consumed it. Maybe that's also why I'm stalling and having tons of mood swings.

I got stuck too about 2 weeks after surgery. I've been hanging on to the same weight for about a week now. Though my weight is the same my fat percentage has gone down. Also it's going to be that time of the month soon so that will make me rests in water. I've been feeling 'hungry' and I think is because if that. I used to get real hungry and crave chocolate about a week before so I think it's all that. I know the scale will move again. I've been able to fit in clothes I hadn't been able to fit in 3 years so I'm happy. Hang in there. Keep you nutrition on point and it will pass

I started my preop on 4/4 weighing in 210 lbs. VSG 4/18 and today 4/23 I am 193.7. [emoji85] Thats a lost of 17.2 pounds in 19 days. I can't believe my eyes. I weight myself this morning without my glasses and I was so certain it said 199 and I said to myself: there it is. I'm gaining weigh. When I got off and looked closer and saw 193.7 I was shocked. I mean happy but it just feels unreal. I've been struggling with my weight my whole life and now it's literally just melting off me. The doctor and the staff always said to me: you are going to do great. This is just what you need. And I always smiled back but with some disbelieve. Today I can say it's been the best decision I've ever made! And I'm not even a week post op!

Home today. Minimal pain. Just felt sick when I took liquid Tylenol for the pain. Man. It had sugar. That made me feel sick for like 2 hours. Never doing that. As much as I hate it I'll stick to the oxi. Some gas but not too bad. Besides the little soreness in my stomach I feel normal. VSG: 4/18/16 HW: 225 SW:198 GW:125-130

Hello everyone. I am 12 hours post op. Still at the hospital. Besides some pain manageable with pain meds that's it. No nausea or vomiting. My doctor said surgery took all of 35 minutes. I remember when the put the oxygen mask on and the I woke up in recovery. When they told me it was done I didnt believe them because I was feeling too well. So I looked under my gown and there they were. 6 little scars. Looking gorgeous. No bleeding or bruising. I can't explain to you guys how happy I am that I made this decision. Have not regret any of it. Sooooo many good things to come! Preop weight: 210 Surgery weight: 198.2 Goal weight: 125-130
