Will be here tomorrow after 11:30am

I THINK....the 3 1/2 week stall have finally broke (dear lord please). I got on the scales yesterday and had lost a pound, checked again today to make sure that pound had 'stuck' and lost a other.....hallelujah!!!!!!

Thanks!! It definitely does feel good to tell people I've lost 50 lbs! I feel a difference in some clothes but haven't had to shop yet. I am getting soft and squishy though lol

I know what you mean. I lost 41 and I don't have to shop yet, but lots of clothes are looking baggy. Yeah!

That's what I thought!

I am really soft and gushy too now. I'm hoping that is a good sign.

Anybody have trouble with eating brown rice. I'm going to make shrimp fried rice for my family tonight for dinner and I'm wondering how I'd react too the rice. I'll probably just eat some of the shrimp. But I was wondering if anyone else had tried brown rice yet

I am definitely softer and more jiggly....yay and boo all at the same time!

I have yet to try rice....rice was evil with my lap band and I'm just a tad scared of it, I'm cleared to eat it, just chicken

Yeah. I'm pretty sure I'll just have the shrimp. I'm too scared to try the rice yet.

Do you have a recipe?

Okay y'all are giving me a complex' date=' you've lost twice what I have!!!!![/quote']

I'm where your at... I just keep telling my self --- slow and steady!

So I meant with my Nutritionist for my six week appointment.. Let me just say, I have never cared for her. Well, I understand that some nutritionists may be regimented and strict because they have non compliant patients (I'm compliant though) but mine has the personality of a piece of driftwood!!! I lost 36 lbs since my surgery 6 weeks ago and not even a "good job" came out of her mouth. If you going to work in the medical/mental health field, I strongly recommend a class in compassion!!!!!! My new name for her is the"NUT NAZI". Thank god I don't have to see her anymore... And if I need to see a nutritionist again ill ask for a new one. Ok done with my rant...

I don't get that at all....at my 1 month I was down 12 from surgery and 27 total and all I got from the whole office was 'you're doing great, keep up the good work!' As long as you aren't totally bombing they really oughtta big giving huge kudos!!!!!

HW 312, pre-op (lap-band) 294, pre-op (RNY) 255, surgery date 2/11/13, goal weight 154, current weight 223

I get nothing but praise from my Dr office. And right now i am not losing big number which they don't expect because I lost 40 pounds before surgery. I think everyone here is doing wonderful.

Oh and just a random thought. Does anyone find that all people want to do is hug you since surgery.i think secretly they are feeling how small i am getting. Cause they really can't tell cause my clothes are still huge. Hmmmm???

About to attempt cream of wheat for the first time since D-day (dumping day...). Never thought a bowl of cream of wheat would scare me!!! I had 1/2 a syntrax shake mixed in low fat milk right before I ate in an attempt to even things out :/. We shall see!!!!
