Yep, I do believe that I'm officially in the dreaded 3 WEEK STALL!!! I've been the same weight since Friday. Thank God for this wonderful site, because if I didn't know about the 3 week stall, I would be totally freaking out. I'm cool, it's all part of the process...but. .. WHEN IS IT GOING TO END?????? :-D

Me too but I'm two weeks out! So annoying.

I'm two weeks out too, but I went on a clear liquid diet a week before surgery so this officially makes three weeks.

Does anyone try lunch meat? I have been having really thin sliced turkey and American cheese....only two ounces total. I was hoping that the protein would help.

Yes I ate thin sliced Turkey and a thin slice of mild Chedder yesterday. Yummmmmmmy

Good everyone around me ( you know all those experts who know nothing about surgery) told me I am crazy! It is protein and turkey!

I have to vent... Yesterday was my son's birthday and we celebrated at chuck e cheese... I had to sit and watch as everyone enjoyed pizza, wings, salad bar, cake, and ice cream... While I sipped on water. It was worse than when my family took me out to eat at a Mexican restaurant (my favorite food) while out of town and tried to coax me into eating something while I was on my preop liquid diet. Everything smelled so good, and I was dying to have some cake (which is something I love) everyone kept commenting on my willpower, but that had nothing to do with it... The fact that any of that food could have caused complications and sent me to the hospital is what scared me into not eating it. Most times, I feel like nobody around me understands...

Tomorrow is the big day for me July 24th the day my new life begins....

Today I had a lunchable that was turkey and chedder cheese. It only had about 1 oz. each of meat and cheese. did not eat the crackers or the small candy. It went down okay. It was nice to have something to chew! Technically, I'm not supposed to be on soft proteins until tomorrow, but I had a couple eggs yesterday, so I thought I would try the lunchmeat/cheese thing today. Going to pick up some cottage cheese later this afternoon for tomorrow.

How are all the July 8-ers doing with their incisions? My doctor glued mine and all but one the glue has come off. A couple of the larger ones still have glue IN them, like in the middle of the incision - will that eventually dissolve or what?

My incisions are glued but one stitched......the stitched one hurts so bad I wanna punch the wall! I also just got a cold so sneezing and coughing is really sad......in fact I am in a really bad place because of it. Just so miserable.

My glue is all gone except what was left on my actual skin and is peeling still but the wounds are all closed well. Funny that one of the tiniest ones gave me the most pain.

Apparently this is my cranky face. Sans make up but get - there's a chin

Wow! That's great!
