The absolutely most important thing for me has been following diet the Dr. gives you stage by stage! Exercise is important, however I think stopping eating as soon as you feel full is the most important thing in the beginning, and avoid snacking and stay hydrated. You will have stalls but just try not to get upset and stay with it, you will lose inches even when the scale isn't moving! Premier Protein shakes are my favorite, find one you like and drink them!

Oh -- forgot to ask; do you exercise? If yes, what's your schedule?

I do exercise, I prefer the treadmill to walking outside, I feel like I get a better workout faster! Also lift some light weights, to start out after surgery take it slow, walk for 30 min a day if you can't do it all at once do 15 & 15, as the weight comes off it will get easier! Walk away the pounds videos were great at first very low impact! After surgery in the hospital start walking the halls as soon as they will let you up!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
