    mav2126 got a reaction from Frustr8 in What is your rate of weight loss???   
    How much are you losing over what time period??? I want to understand the rate that people are losing weight over time. For example I lose 2-3 lbs. every 2 weeks. It seems like its gotten into a regular rhythm.

    mav2126 got a reaction from TeeJay84 in Broke my stall!!!   
    i broke my stall. I was stuck at 228-229 for 2 weeks and I just weighed in at 225. Woot! Woot! I can't tell you how stressed I was during the stall. I thought I would never lose weight again and that I wasted all this effort on the surgery. Man it was a roller coaster. Not fun.

    mav2126 got a reaction from GreenTealael in Am I cheating??? Yes!!!   
    Ok. So I am 3 weeks post op. I decided I didn't want to be on puree anymore and jumped to normal (healthy) food - definitely supplementing with Protein Shakes. I am tolerating everything well. I am just listening to my body and taking it slow but I am definitely eating ahead of schedule by a couple of weeks. Am I a terrible person?

    mav2126 got a reaction from Orchids&Dragons in Surgery Tomorrow!!! Holy Crap!!!   
    I am 1 week out of surgery. First couple days we're rough and felt like a big adjustment. Now I am in puree and not really liking it. Looking forward to get to real food. Ate scrambled eggs - only one egg - and that was good. No aversions or changes to taste buds. So it feels like not much has changed. Still crave bad foods...

    Ok folks. It has begun. I had my "last" meal last night and started the all liquid pre-op diet today. It wasn't bad. As long as I drank a Protein Shake every 3-4 hours I had no hunger.

    Its the end of my 7th day and I am still alive. I think you do get used to being hungry between drinking shakes. Only 7 more days to go and then it is off to surgery. I took 2 weeks off from work but I hear some people are fine in a couple of days. I hope that will be my experience.

    I think it is still hard. I am on 6th day and it is still hard. But I have stuck to it and have had zero cheating and I will continue to stick with the program. Sorry to hear you are struggling. Stay strong.

    Thanks Trixie. I noticed when I am at work I am not hungry. The second I get home and have time to think I am hungry. :-(

    mav2126 got a reaction from sleevedinschool in JUST GOT SURGERY DATE!!!   
    Hi All-

    Just got surgery date of June 27th. I have to admit I am nervous about it. I am hoping everything will go OK and I won't be vomiting all over the place. I was at my doctor's office today and met two very nice patients. They both said they had pain free and vomit free experiences. That made me more comfortable and hopeful that I won't have a bad experience.

    Anyone else out there that has a similar sleeve date as me? Should we count down the days together?
