Hi All,

Didn't see an October Post Op thread so I figured I'd start one.

I was sleeved on Oct. 17,2017. I had no complications, only pain I dealt with was the gas that was stuck in my rib/chest area for about 4 days. I didn't have any nausea or vomiting and have been doing great. Only frustrating thing is I hit a stall about 10 days ago and the scale hasn't moved yet. How's everyone doing?

Boatnam 1 lookin' good, I would have been,proud to be your friend in either manifestation. But I bet you feel better now in the healthier body.

Kakatlady, yes i do feel like i have way more energy, blood pressure is really good now even without bp meds. Things have slowed down on the scale but still grinding away at it.

Wow! What a transformation! Congrats and hats off to you! You must feel so different now, compared to when you were at your highest weight! I love to hear that you are doing water exercise. That has to be awesome, because it is easier on your joints! Great job! You are a true inspiration!

61 lbs makes a BIG difference. Pink dress pic was taken in September and the other was taken Saturday. I feel like a completely different person.

What are some of your favorite meals/snacks?

Nice job!

I like the 100 calorie cocoa almond packs, Dannon low fat light and fit greek yogurt (cherry is my fav) for snacks. Meatballs and rotisserie chicken are so good to me.

Precisely ... no pain from weights, machines or my own weight and arthritic joints.

That is great! I had looked into it, cost and not being able to drive is a big part of why i opted not to. I was so excited when I was down to 300 because then I could use my Wii fit board again! Thats my exercise and chasing around a 4 year old niece all the time helps too!

So we will be closing in on 6 months here soon, what did everyone expect to lose by then? I was hoping for 75 pounds but with my current stall not sure i will make it.

I was hoping to lose 75lbs also. So far, I have lost 55lbs. I've had a few stalls, but I'm going to continue to power through them and get as close to 75 as I can.

You should have no problems hitting your target. Best of luck.

I really did not expect to be under 225 at my 6 month, let along my 5month! I would be happy to hit 210, as I now am 5 lbs less than I was in 2001!
