I'm at a stall. I've been between 170 and 175 for the past couple of months, which my DR. told me to expect after I dropped the amount of weight I did. The past week or so, I've been seeing that my weight is slowing creeping up to the 180 mark and I'm scared to death. I've been monitoring my carb and sugar intake and I've gone back on the protein shakes for breakfast or lunch. I'm extremely worried that i'm going to gain back all the weight. I've seen myself falling into past habits (binge eating disorder and weighing myself every day up to 3x a day), eating sugary food (candy) and not getting enough liquids in. It probably isn't helping that i'm trying to complete my degree for college and I signed myself up for 6 summer classes to finish in the next 4 months. I need help. I tried talking to my husband, and though he is sympathetic, his advice is stop eating bad food, which is easier said than done. If anybody has gone through something similar, i'd love to hear how you overcome this stall.

Hey everybody i'm about 5 weeks out after my surgery and so far i've lost about 30 lbs. (I opted with the ds) I did have some complications in surgery and i was in the hospital for almost 4 days. About 2 weeks after my surgery i developed severe acid reflux and i'm currently on my 3rd PPI and also taking carafate susp several times a day. The acid reflux is so severe i'm still out of work and will be for the next 2 weeks. Every time i eat or drink i get incredibly nauseous and theres a weird pain that radiates from the top of my stomach. Its been so bad i've been in the hospital twice to get fluids to prevent dehydration. My cat scan showed there was no leakage and i'm getting an upper GI and an endoscopy done later in the week. Has anybody else that got the DS surgery had symptoms like this or just had a rough time recovering from surgery? Any help that can be provided will be much appreciated!
