I am 5 weeks post op.I think you are doing just fine.Dont obsess you are losing weight rapidly.

This is going to sound crazy but I am not going to weigh myself for another 2 weeks when I go back to see the nutritionist .I am on soft foods.I can't take or handle a stall right now....Wouldn't be able to handle it...sounds crazy but I know me...compulsive.I need the first 50 pounds off to feel like this bypass is really working....sometimes I think..."did I really get a bypass?I really went through with this?"It blows my mind!

You are losing quickly...

I'm due to get bypass in hopefully April. Waiting for some tests and the doctors decision then we move from there. I too live in Pittsburgh. Where about are you? I'm in the south hills. McMurray. Don't be so hard on yourself. Stalls happen. Not from anything your doing. It's just part of it all. Hang in there????

Hello, I'm new to the site as well. I'm 7 weeks out and had my surgery in Pittsburgh. I have already had a stall for about two weeks but started losing again this week. Frustrating, but I feel so good. I lost 60 before surgery and 25 post op. At 85 lb loss I'm half way to my goal. Best of luck!

Congratulations! That's fantastic! Where did you have your surgery? Mine is scheduled for April 26!

April 26 will be our 19th wedding anniversary, so I will remember your date for sure! I had my surgery at Magee. It went really well.

Awe Happy Anniversary to you! I'm guessing that's why your name has 426 in it????

So glad your surgery went well. Guess we will both have something big to remember that date by!

I also live In South Hills! I just had my surgery on Monday (the 18th) .. I've seen so many progression photos- I can't wait to be able to exercise normally and get this weight off!!

Cat.jackson your right here where I am!!! So neat to know there are people right in your own are! I'm in McMurray. Where are you?

That's how I feel too! I can't wait to be like 5 months out to see where I am! I wanted sleeved but my acids have made that not possible ????

How are you feeling? How was your healing? Have you had any troubles? Happy to hear from you!????
