I've been stalled for awhile... I had 2 good weeks totaling about 17 pounds and since then I've been going back and forth with the same one or two pounds. I've been running, eating carefully, etc. but that scale just won't budge! I think I'm losing some inches but still...

Watch the Costco ones because sometimes you get some chunky ones. ? They're great about exchanging them, but it's a hassle.

I got mine done April 12th... how is everyone doing?

I am 36 years old and a full-time single mother to a 4 year old and a 2 year old, (both girls). When I realized it was time to make a serious change is when I went to the doctor after my youngest turned one and I weighed more than I had when I checked in to the hospital to deliver her! I was so hopeless and embarrassed. I just felt like I was at my absolute rock-bottom. I am only 5' 0", so weighing over 220 at my heaviest just made everything so hard. I thought to myself, I am too young to feel this old. All I wanted to do was eat and sit on the couch watching t.v. I have two little girls looking at me for their example of what a woman is. I had recently left an abusive marriage because I wanted to set a good example, so it made sense for me to decide to get my health in-check and show them what a strong, independent, healthy woman is. It has been hard. I had to wean my youngest before I was quite ready and it wasn't easy trying to recover with two little ones, all alone. Some day though, they're going to see everything I did for them. 9 months ago I couldn't imagine running 200 feet. Today I pushed a double stroller and ran my first 5k! I ran the whole thing. I'm down to 184 after VSG April 12th at Kaiser. I got this. ?

If you eat too fast or drink too soon after eating you can have that feeling. Could be that...
