  1. Same here but I was in so much pain from my stitch I could hardly stand up much less walk. I felt my stitch pop this week when I was coughing and I feel so much better. I'm hoping I can start walking now and get the scale moving. My friend told me the same thing though. She said just keep going g and the weight will come off. She said I would continue to loose and stop.
  2. Any suggestions for where to find good recipes or a cook book?
  3. Soma has amazing bras. They even have one for back fat. But they are pricy. I always look for coupons first. But I haven't ever had a more perfect fit in looks and comfort.
  4. I didn't ever have a drain. I called again today and as usual they told me it's very common with the sleve.
  5. I really thought I would have been feeling better by now I am 3 weeks post op and can not walk or stand up for more than 10 minutes without my big incision forcing me to sit down because it hurts so bad. When I sit down it usually stops hurting but every once in a while I have to lay down for it to stop. Any thoughts or advice?

  17. Just protiens very few carbs. Protien Shakes with less than 6 carbs, scrambled eggs or eggwhites, yogurt with more protien than carbs, ricotta cheese, string cheese and cottage cheese. No oatmeal unless it's the specially formulated bariatric kind because it has too many carbs. My nutritionist is very big on very low carb. She said our bodies burn our carb tank first and then fat so low carb is important for fat burning.

  19. I'm almost 3 weeks out and at a stall also and even gained 3 pounds before the stall. I have been here for over a week. It started when I started stage one foods. I'm thinking maybe it's because I lost 50 pounds before the surgery and had a lower bmi going into the surgery. I currently weigh 207.
  20. I had an Amazing suregon. Dr. Allen Alavrez with Sage Bariatrics in San Antonio! But I did my research first, he was not the first suregon I visited. It was important to me to have a great doctor.

  22. I haven't gotten that far I'm my diet progression but does it help if the meat is really tender or you put it in a food processor?
