  1. As predicted, I stalled at 240, but it was short and broke yesterday after bloat so bad I had to dig out some of my pre-op clothes. Ugh! 

    But the stall is breaking, and I'm 238 this morning. 

    Thats the good news. The bad news is that I'm going through a cycle of nausea and vomiting that really sucks. Team says it's normal for some people. 

    And I am, it seems, "some people". 

    On the plus side, the B12 shot seems to be actively helping. 

  2. Down another decade! I hit 240 this morning, and I'm trying not to get overly excited about seeing something in the 230s tomorrow.  It's a little like the night before your birthday as a kid, only over and over.

      Fantastic! I too just saw the scale drop 3 pounds this morning (after a bit of a stall), it was great to hit the 60 pounds lost mark today.

      So nice! I'm excited for you hon! Yay!!😊

  3. Tax Day! And I've discovered that STRESS makes it very hard to get even water to enter my stomach (Don't get me started on getting it to keep moving and exit.)  I guess it's time to take up meditation again so I can stay hydrated. 

  4. Ugh. Only lasted 5 minutes before all my medicine came back up this morning. Oh well. Tomorrow is another day.

  6. I know my surgeon said to wait a long while before buying clothes, but my pants are already falling down, and my bra is so big in the band, I'm not sure it's actually doing anything. 😅

      thats a great problem to have. I've heard of many opting for sport bras, no clasp; just a pull over. cheap ones from Walmart or so

      That's what I've been doing, and already they're too big. :o

  7. NSV! Four inches off my waist since pre-op! I HAVE a waist again!

      That is awesome! I haven't measured myself but I'm thinking I should. I start pre-op diet in a little over a week!

      Keep up the great work!

  8. I'm doing great after surgery with getting liquids and meds down, but every time I get stressed, wicked heartburn. Ommmmmm

  9. Three days post-op with a near miss on dehydration.  The first day or two out of the hospital were the worst for keeping liquids down. But I seem to be healing quickly now. Just waiting for post-op swelling to go away. Ugh.
