After 7 grueling months of stalling I'm finally moving again! Lost 10lbs in 1 week! Can't believe it! This stall is FINALLY OVER!!!! Maybe now I can head for onederland!!!!

Congrats!!!! I think I am starting to feel a similar frustration! I stall like every 2 weeks. It's so annoying! 10lbs in a week is awesome!!!!! WTG!!!!

Thank you, unfortunately however i had to start a very strict diet . . . i'm glad i have the sleeve cause it helps with the hunger, I don't feel it anymore. . . i do only about 900 calories or less a day and no more then 30-40 g of carbs a day, less if possible, and tons of water. . . i've cut all diet sodas, alcohol, sweets, flour products, fruit, etc. . . reminds me of my olden days before the sleeve, only this time it's easier cause again, the sleeve helps combat the hunger. . . good luck to you and i'll let you know when i hit onderland in hopefully 5 weeks!

OMG... THIN.... YOU gooooooo!!!

Wow is all I can say, and YEY!!

You have actually given me some hope that my journey isn't over too... how long did you 'diet' for before you reaped the rewards? I've been doing semi maintance for about three weeks... and I think in another week or so I'll be ready mentally to try again!

Any handy hints would be appreciated... but, in the meantime.... WELL DONE YOU! =]

Was it a 7 week stall or a 7 month stall? Seven months seems like a really long stall? Did you call the doc or see the nutritionist during those months?

Yay! That's exciting that the scale is moving again! 10lbs in one weeks- WOW! You will be in onderland in no time!

coops - I started my "diet" last monday. . and it took 1 week to lose the 10 lbs. . the handy hint i can give you is don't give up. . do your best ever.and always remember "you are the product of your success". . . you can do this!

wondering1 - the stall was 7 MONTHS. . . I'm past calling the WLS people. I was self pay and only rec'd 1 year of counsel. . my PCP is not into bariatric surgery, so i cant talk to her, the only real help i have is this forum and myself. . . i see the bariatric surgeon now only 1 time per year with out cost except for my copay and unless something happens on an emergency basis. . .

sunnyd - thank you! yes when i first had my surgery done i had lost 25 lbs in 2 weeks and 53 lbs in 7 weeks. So yes, i'll be in onderland in no time flat as long as i keep this up. . . and thank goodness it's a might easier this time around because of the sleeve. . . alot of head hunger but that is combatable with Water and crystal lite. . .

thank you all for the well wishes I'll definately let ya'll know each week how it's going ok!

Congrats on getting through the stall! Wow, I hope I never get one that lasts that long!

And if you ever do Nancy, don't be discouraged, just know that it does happen. . . . i lost really fast, faster then most and my body was paying for it near the end. . . but if you do get stuck, just remember to go to back to basics and remember where you started and how hard you have worked to get where you are. . . then kick a$ and kick start that stupid stall and WIN the battle!!!! together we can overcome this evil fat. . . good luck everyone!

WOW! Congratulations! I know you've been working and working and feeling frustrated, so I'm so pleased for you that the stupid scale moved!!! Way to go!!

Hi group, well as promised i'm happy to annouce that i lost another 10 lbs this week. . . so since i've been on this "diet" the last 2 weeks without any cheating or anything (I am so proud of myself) 20 lbs have dropped off. . . it's really tough, but i'll get through this ONLY 4 more weeks left before increment #1 is done! I CAN DO THIS. . . . I AM THE PRODUCT OF MY ACTIONS

Thin you are making my day! 2 years out and a 7 month stall and 20 pounds in a couple of weeks. YOU FREAKING MACHINE! I likey.
