Awesome job!! I was sleeved 3/16/16 and just broke the 3 week stall. Any tips? Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App 1excited I have been fortunate to not have had any stalls as of yet but I switch up my exercises every week because even before surgery my body got used to doing an exercise to quickly and then I wouldn't have results. I am also fortunate to have 2 personal trainers as best friends and have my best interest at heart so they make the routines for me each week. i am also very conscious about what I am eating even though it is still in very small amounts I am making healthy Protein packed choices I mainly eat meat (steak, chicken, fish and turkey) chat this point don't have room for much else. I walk everyday on lunch for 45 to 55 mins and take frequent breaks to help get to my 10,000 steps a day. Best advice I have for you is to be doing this for yourself and no one else you will be your best motivation or your own worst enemy. Sometimes we have to get out of our own way and step out on another path. I have changed my way of thinking no more mindless snacking, meals are prepped and thought out every Sunday for the week and exercise is on top of my daily activities to do. I wish you the best of luck on your journey!. Thank you for such amazing advice Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

How often do you recieve infusions. I was at a manageable point in the past (a blood transfusion here and there and a 4 week series of Iron every few months) however now it's just not working like it used to. Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

My friend gets that one. Is it on a needle? I will get the name on Thursday when I go back in. Oral supplements do absolutely nothing for me. My disorder actually postponed my surgery, when I finally got it I was at 9 and 4. I can usually tell when it is very low. I have shortness of breath, weak, dizzy, etc. I hope you feel better soon because I know it sucks. Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

What were your numbers? Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

Yes I get them weekly (I have been for 2-3 months now) along with B12 shots. My hemotologist actually increased the amount I am getting at each infusion and now my numbers are starting to go up. Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

I have a blood disorder and I have been getting weekly infusions for sometime now. It may take 2 or 3 infusions (remember the blood recycles every few days). Have they checked your B-12? Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

It really depends on your insurance company. My insurance company required 3 months supervised diet. During that time I worked on diet and exercise and getting all required clerence Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

I had my first meal yesterday as well. I made chicken salad (I boiled 1 boneless skinless chicken breast with 1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon. After it cooled I rough chopped it and pureed it with 1/2 avacado. So good. I was able to eat about 2 tablespoons initially then an hour later I was able to eat another tablespoon) Sent from my SM-G530T using the BariatricPal App

It is but I hope it doesn't bite me in the butt. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App That is awesome. If you have already spoken to your insurance company and they said you are approved and you can go ahead with surgery then you are set. The ball is now in your surgeon's court. Good luck!!!
