I had my GS on July 30, 2013 and I am excited about my new journey!

I started at 262 lbs, now at 244. I have my first post-op Dr. appt today. I had the best post-op experience. Almost no nausea and absolutely no pain! I actually asked Dr. Burpee when he came in right after surgery if he had to call it off because I didn't feel like I had anything done!

So glad I found this site, great info and great place to vent and share achievements!

Tony:

Weight lost as of today is only 23lbs. I am averaging 600 cals and have been doing Water aerobics and cardio every day but have completely stalled with weight loss. Very discouraging....how are you doing?

Hello, Well now that your telling me your down 23lbs that is great for you!! but now im discouraged because im only down 16lbs as of today but im sure it will pick up, as far as a stall are you loosing inches? because everyone is saying you may stall in loss but you loose in inches.

Yes, I'm down from a size 26 day of surgery to a 22 today. So I guess I've lost some inches! My daughter had the same surgery in April and is down 60 lbs. She stalled until about the 2 month mark, then it started falling off her!! She's stalled again but this time isn't worried about it. She keeps telling me not to weigh myself daily, but its really hard not to!
