Post Op September Sleevers, Roll Call

HELLO I AM DAY 6 I WOKE UP FEELING GOOD BUT AFTER MY SHOWER AND FIX MY Breakfast I FEEL SO SICK RIGHT NOW I CANT EVEN DRINK MY BREAKFAST, I HAD TO TAKE A NAUSEA PILL. LAST NIGHT WAS RUFF I MUST SAY. I THINK I STRESSED THE MAIN INSISION AND IT BOTHERED ME ALL NIGHT THE ACHE WENT ALL THE WAY TO MY BACK. YES I WAS SCARED BUT I KNEW I WOULD BE OK. I THINK I AM HAVING A REACTION TO TRADER JOES SPICY BLACK BEAN Soup, KEY WORD SPICY LOL.

I WAS ABLE TO GET MY 60 GRAMS OF PROTIEN IN AND I THINK THAT MADE ME SICK AS WELL I WAS FORCING IT BUT I COULDNT FINISH IT NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRIED LOL.

I HOPE EVERYONE WHO HAS HAD THE SURGERY IS DOING WELL. PLEASE SHARE YOUR PROGRESS SO WE CAN LEARN FROM EACH OTHER.

I was stalled for about 6 weeks. It is hard not to get frustrated! Luckily I am back to losing again. I think it is just our body adjusting to this new lifestyle. Nothing was different when I started losing again.

I wish it would warm up fast here so I can do more walking outside! We usually wont go if it is below 15 or so. I think we are past the worst part of winter.

becca you look awesome girlie. im tired of this stall. my breakfast and lunch are protien shakescant deal

so i use fitclick to log my food so i went back to december because it seems to be when i was losing 2-3lbs a week to see what i was eating and its seems my carbs averaged out to be higher than my protien intake. so instead of taking in 80+ on protien i will reduce it back to 60-75grams aday and my carbs at about 100grams. i am going to try for a whole week to see what happens. i have tried everything else so lets try this. plus i added working out but the scale and inches are not moving . i will let you guys know what happens

Hope it turns this around for you! I have had stalks but look at them as a readjustment period but if I wasn't losing inches I would be upset too! Hang in, you will work it out!!

Funny story.

Yesterday I went Bra shopping. They had a bra fitting specialist from Vanity Fair that measured me. As soon as she put the tape measure around my rib cage she said... "Your tinny" I know I must have looked like the world stopped spinning or something... I said to this lady .. " I've been called alot if things but tinny has never been one of them". She looks at me strangely then I explained that I'd lost alot of weight.

I'm telling you.. It felt strange and great all at the same time. It's funny how our brains still see us at Pre op weight.

I have gone from a 42DD to a 34-36D. If this keeps up I may have to buy some new boobs. Lol!!!

I went and got new bras yesterday too, went from a tight 42c/d to a comfortable 38b! Also now in a large top from a 2x!! Doesn't it feel great ??? ;)

Sue--- love the new photo!!! Looking hot lady!!!!

I'm glad you're here for support' date=' because this would be driving me crazy otherwise. I'm going back to my pre-surgery diet, 2 Protein shakes and one low fat meal a day. I'll let you know if anything shakes loose with that.[/quote']

Sorry you hit a stall. We all know it's frustrating.

I know it's not what you want to hear but I think you just have to keep doing what your doing and wait it out. Are your measurement changing and do you feel great about all the success you have accomplished?

I'm not sure about my measurements, I've never taken them. But I do feel great and I would rather be where I am now, even if this is it for weight loss than where I was 6 months ago. Thanks for reminding me that I need to remember how far I've come, it's really been a big change. I'm smaller now than I've been since high school.

My entire experience has been one big stall. I'll seriously go four to six weeks with no more than 1 to 2 pounds lost then drop 4 pounds in a week. Overall I'm down 50 in 6 months but it's been an exercise in patience. I'm somewhat surprised how good I feel at 185. I'm not done yet but I'm finding it much harder to stay away from slider foods and stay motivated.

We all go through it and its hard to always make the right food choice. However, just remember where you came from and never forget that Nothing tastes as good as SKINNY feels!!! Lol!!!!

Girl 50 Pds is awesome and you will be ok. I totally understand the slider thing. I think we are having the 6 month freeze lol. Things are going down much better and we can eat more. The stalls make I feel like a failure and your goal weight we all thought would be here in no tome. Just go back to basics hon one hour at a time. Review your information like I did before surgery. And just walk whenever I get the chance. We will conquer this 6 month freeze but by no means are u a failure!!!!

Is anyone else here a raging crazy B during periods once surgery!? I've never been nuts until this surgery now at period time I'm so emotional and kinda mean :/ although happy to be down 83 lbs. a size 10 might be worth it lol
