I am going to appologize to anyone that had something rude or hurtful to say about my last post. I am sorry that I went on a rant about not getting a response. I was having a bad day and when those days come up I turn to this board for the support I need to get me past whatever is going on.. I do read other post and even more so now that people have made it known that I should do that before posting anything. This is a forum for support right? I needed support and I felt like it wasn't there when I needed it. Now that I look back at it. I shouldn't have posted something that was going to cause such a fit. My remark about "stupid questions" was just that a remark. We all say things that we don't mean to say at times "that's life". My stall has passed and I have lost 3 lbs over the past week. I changed NOTHING!! I kept doing what I had been doing since the beginning and it passed on it own. Thanks for the Positve Support from those of you that provided it.

Glad to hear your dropped 3 more! It's always nice to break a stall but sadly, they do happen from time to time.

Yes, you're right. There is an enormous wealth of information reading this board.

I hope you saw that I too apologized for my snappy remark back- your post just hit me wrong when so many people give so much and I had see your problem addressed so thoroughly. Still, I should not have come down on you- we are a support system and that was SO not supportive!

Glad you have broken your stall- and you have lots of tips now should you reach another one.

What is a big happy family without a few spats here and there? We all have our bad days and I was happy to see how many people jumped in to comfort you instead of the flaming that would have occurred on a lot of forums! :grouphug:

Glad to hear you broke your stall. I find that if I just keep going it breaks. I have also found significant (about 3-5 ibs) weight gain my TOM and a short stall during ovulation. It is like clockwork for me.

MommyTawnie,

Your weight loss is fantastic. Keep doing what you are doing. This forum is supposed to be for support. However, people are emotional creatures. A little vent now and then never hurt anyone, as long as we all come back to our senses fairly quick .LOL

Have a Great Day,

Michelle

Glad your stall broke, glad you didn't change anything, glad it's over and hope you know that you can vent about them here. I think it's an emotional journey, and if you don't get replies, contact someone via the private message system. I've always been quick to reply to messages, and like I said, I can't see every posts, it's just not possible. If you thought the replies were negative, I apologize, but my reply was intended to be helpful to let you know that stalls are discussed on here, and if your post doesn't get the replies you're looking for then seek out the information.

Support comes in many forms, your initial post was pretty much telling us that have been here for almost 2 years contributing to this forum day in and day out, that we suck because your post got lost in the 200 plus new posts that hit this forum daily. I'm really sorry that a forum of several thousand members wasn't there for you, but in reality, I've always told anyone and everyone they could contact me privately if they needed something.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
