I have been stuck at 245-247 for 2 weeks. I am 4 1/2 weeks post op. i was 280 pre op and 260 day of surgery. Lose a pound, gain 2. Lose 2, gain a pound. It's been 1 heck of a seesaw!

But!!!!!!! I tried on some clothes that were very snug 2 weeks ago when I was still 246 and they fit now! I used to wear a size 18 jean and today I slipped ok a size 14! Just want to remind u all that even if the scale isn't moving, don't get discouraged. Tere are other ways Rolf judging an measuring

So I get these terrible headaches' date=' And I just got sleeved 10/30/12, has anyone experienced the horrible headaches? I need to get some stool softeners also. When they say liquid foods after 1 week, would that be 11/06 for me, cream soups, Mashed potatoes.[/quote']

Are you taking the dissolvable peppermint flavored nausea pill? (Sorry- don't know the name off hand) one of the major side effects of it is headaches.

Also even minor dehydration can cause a headache.

My date was 10/31, I've had a couple of headaches too- I'm on liquids for 2 weeks- but I have my follow up Friday and I'm doing well so I'm hoping they'll let me add like yougert and scrambled eggs then.

I am 7 days post op and I will see doc on Wednesday. I thought the cramps were healing pains? I hve no real issues other than time. After released fr hospital, 3 days of liquid 4 th day add protein shakes I was surprised my tummy did not mind shakes it took all day to drink two. Today I started putting crystal light with water hopefully my tummy will like it. This is truly a discovery journey. Good luck

Yeah my period came on the 6th of October so I'm expecting it again within a few days..hopefully that's just it and I can break this stall. My carbs are always low . Even on my fitness pal I never near the amount of carbs ok goaled at

What amount of carbs (goal) do you show on MFP? Just curious.

Goal for carbs 82 an Protein only 22. I'm trying to figure out a way that I can change it on my own to reflect my lifestyle but u guess it creates it for u based on ur weight...

Oh u can change them! I just can't do it over my phone but if I go under goals on myfitnesspal.com I can change them:)

Don't get discouraged! My scale went up 2 lbs (prob. water) and I know it is just a matter of time before I lose it and several more pounds. It has to go down! There's only 1 way for it to go from now on and that's down!

really? Can you tell me how to do so?

Hi Ladyt,

I was sleeved 10/22/12. For the first week I had a constant headache. I'm not sure if it was from being put under , or from the pain mess in the hospital. But after about three days at home it went away and I felt so much better. Losing the headache made a world of differance . Try hard to keep up on your Water intake , I just kept telling myself it was helping flush all the chemicals out. Hang in there, you'll feel so much better soon!

There is a private support group on Facebook for October sleevers if your interested

Do you have the link ? I can't find it.
