Frustrated by slow weight loss



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone---This is my first time here! I had LB on 1-12-10. As to date, I have lost 30 lbs. I lost 8 of that before surgery and most of the rest while on liquids after the fills. I follow my diet well, but have trouble with the excercise part. I work 12 hours on night shift, so my meals are pretty backwards from a regular eating schedule. I'm just wondering if there are other "Nite Owls" out there having problems with their eating schedules, or if anyone has any tips on speeding this weight loss. It's been a while since I've lost any serious lbs. and have been stuck for some time. Any advice will really be appreciated. Thanks!

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
