It's very frustrating. I even hit a complete stall beginning on week 3. The scale didn't budge for 14 freaking days. I finally started upping my calories from 450 to about 700 and the scale is finally moving. Also started working out hard yesterday. Slow and steady wins the race, right? ;-)

I'm not as fast as others, either! But as long as the scale comes down I don't care! I didn't put this weight on overnight, I must be patient!! :-)

Yes, I know it's frustrating, I was 2 weeks in a stall...then I started upping my calories, eat every 3 hours (hungry pains!) and the scale is moving now! So, you right, and be consistent! Good luck to us! lol

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        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!!
