Went to weigh in and I have lost 5lbs since my last visit a month ago. I was really pleased. I explained to my Doc that this website has really helped me in rethinking my surgery. I explained to him that alot of things that are being said was not told to me during my office visit and during post-op classes. I really think I have a better handle of how I am to treat myself...

:thumbup:Thanks for all the support and information. I have gone back to re-evaluate my eating habits and yes I can see that I was not on track. I started a fresh on that next day and have kicked my cardio into overdrive and I can truly see and feel the difference in just the last 3 days. I guess I have not looked at this situation the way you all have stated to me. It is a tool and I still have to use my brain. I know that it is all mental. I go next week for a doctors visit, so I will let you know what the outcome is

I do understand that everyones body is different and we all lose weight differently, but I guess I was expecting more from this. I really love working out, especially spinning, but the weight is not moving. I drink plenty of water, no soda or beverage. I have a really hard time with bread so I have just about eliminated from my intake. Would you suggest protein shakes for a kick start...:blushing:

I had the surgery in Birmingham AL a year ago. I have only lost 15lbs. I went to see my ob-gyn this year for my physical and he asked me about the surgery, said I still weighed the same as last year. I felt so embarrassed. I have expressed this to my surgeon and have had several adjustment and nothing has changed. I told him that I feel stuck more than full. It really takes me awhile to eat. Please can anyone offer me some suggestions or help?:confused2:
