Why can't the fat just disappear everyday?

Feeling like this may be the longer than the 6 month pre-op wait some days!

So, anyone watch Dr. Who? One of my favorite episodes:

The dreaded stall! Well just keep hanging in there and remember the three most important elements after weight loss surgery is to meet the daily requirements for Protein, fluids and Vitamins. Do some exercise. And then wait for the magic to happen.

Hang in there, stalls are very common.

Maybe journal your food, Water, Protein and exercise to see if you are following your post WLS plan.

I asked my doctor about quickly losing 10 pounds of ugly fat, they recommended cutting off my head -I need to find a new doctor. :)

At least your doctor has a sense of humor!

:D

I was only making a joke. My PCP isn't like that.

        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!!
