Suggestion: Can we have a "Stalls" subforum?



Recommended Posts

Very good idea!

That would be great...then I could just stay out of that sub forum and never have to read another post about a three week stall ever again!

How about pregnancy forum too?

Why would you want to read about stalls over and over? Use the time to get moving and do something constructive and don't obsess over your weight stalling. Actually I cannot even imagine there is anything to discuss there. It is what it is.

Well it's obvious people are going to post about their stalls like it's a new thing rather than do a simple search on the forum, so we might as well corral all the posts into one sub forum that the rest of us can avoid. Maybe the administrators can post a big banner at the top that states "STALLS ARE NORMAL...GET OFF THE scale AND START LIVING YOUR LIFE!" But I doubt it would help.

I think having a stalls forum would serve two good purposes:

1. It would collect information about stalls in one location so people in a stall can find ideas to break them. It would be very easy for them to converse with other people in the same situation and be comforted that it is not just them.

2. It would allow those not in a stall to have a break from stall talk. Ohhh! That's a perfect name "Stall talk" < I'm a genius.

I'm all for this. I think it's a great idea.

Please come up with a Forum name, forum description and the appropriate place you think this forum belongs.

Thanks for everyones input.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
