What are you doing now?

I also find it so weird that so many Drs have weight expectations. My Dr never put any on me at all.

I'm in the same boat. I posted a topic about it. My scales have not moved an ounce. Not a single ounce in 2.5 weeks. It sucks.

I'm surprised that your doc EXPECTS you to be at a weight, though. Mine says "slow but steady" and expected me to stall.

Don't let anyone, doctor or otherwise, push you around. If you are following the plan, and I assume you are (are you?), it happens to everyone, from what I hear.

Absolutely I follow everything like I'm suppose to I've even went back to liquid form foods to try and help! I'm so stressed out about it it's definitely not the easy way out! The only thing I don't get to do is go to a gym but I love on a farm and believe me I get exercise like crazy! It's just so frustrating and I'm nervous that if I don't weigh what is expected then maybe I'm stretching it or something

      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!!
