Yes, I am actually seeing this! While I am not losing weight I am losing inches. Almost defies logic (but I'll take it)!

This issue is obviously one of the most frequently posted, and I read all of them because I am right in the middle of my first stall. Yep, I had my RNY on 8 November, lost a quick twenty pounds and just like clockwork hit a stall around three weeks. I have read all the posts regarding stalls but I have not seen a good, scientific/technical explanation of this: How is it possible to not lose anything when one is only consuming 600-700 calories/day over a two or three week period? I mean what is going on? What is the medical explanation of what is happening? It is almost unbelievable that this is possible, but obviously everyone goes through this! Help me understand (and not get too bummed out)!

Hi everyone - I am glad I found you all. I live in Apollo Beach and having my RNY on 8 November. Nervous, nervous! Dr. Murr is doing the surgery. So far the staff at the TGH Bariatric Center have been great. So..there is no post-surgery group that meets periodically? If there is let me know, thanks!

Yes, me too! Glad to find some other Tampa area folks. I am going through the TBGH Barbaric Center Program. Just finished my Wellness Assessment and scheduled to meet with my surgeon Dr. Murr in early April. I am excited, anxious, nervous, everything!
