Had my surgery on august 28th, and so far have lost 20 pounds already! I know it's going to slow down soon, but I'll take what I can get right now. At first I was really frustrated with the liquids only and all that, but it seems like the surgery kind of slapped my"food obsession" right out of me. I don't think about food constantly anymore, and it's way easier to ignore. Even things that I loved before like pizza and chips, are just kind of eh...I'm not hungry right now. So weird!

I was sleeved on 8/28/12 as well. As I sit here eating my 2 oz. of yogurt, I'm grateful for this "tool" to get me to my goal!

I'm the 27th too and lost 10 so far. But I Lost 20 on the three week pre op diet. Plus I figure I will lose slowly since I gave less to lose. I have 25 more to get to goal and really hope I can do that by Christmas but kind of in a stall right now. Haven't lost anything for 4 days.

Congratulations to everyone!! I was sleeved on August 29th, and I'm down 22 lbs. so far. I'm loving the no food obsession thing right now. Preparing myself for when the weight loss slows down, but enjoying it now!!

Sweet! I'm glad this is working cuz my only other idea was to have some one lock me up in a room with a treadmill and refuse to feed me until I worked out lol

Being in a stall this early is very frustrating!!! I thought maybe I was stalling because I wasn't getting calories and Protein so I started upping my Protein two days ago and I still haven't lost anymore. Ugh!!! I know I'm just being impatient but since we r just over 2 weeks out I thought I wouldn't hit a stall for a couple of more weeks.

Anyonw have ideas for breaking a stall? I'm exercising, getting 40-50 grand if protein, and not getting too many calories at all. Do I just ride it out?

Ride it out, continue getting in all of your protein and fluids, and exercise. The weight will come off. Stay off of the scale!!!

I know ur right about the scale. It's just hard not to step on it. I think I will officially not weigh in until Tuesaday.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
