Yup I know exactly what you are describing. I had to increase my calories by adding avocados etc... Cause i was getting dizzy and weak. It's hard to eat and drink while at work especially on a busy night. What I do is I pack all of my lunches and snacks and leave them nearby where I can grab them quick. We can't have food or drinks at the nurse station so I leave mines in our break room and go at least every 3 hrs. But I keep a protein bar in my jacket for those busy nights. It's hard, I am still trying to figure out a good system.

Non scale victory!!

I suffer from the same thing. I usually do miralax and colace anf if that doesnt work i do a senna tea. but since I have been on vacation this week i didn't go for 4 days :-( then I started drinking Plain regular iced tea and that did the trick!!!

Usually I get full fast with 2-3oz of food. Today I have been eating every 2-3 hours non stop Since this morning. I tried my acid meds and drinking water. The only thing that calms my stomach is food. What's wrong??

I have been drinking iced coffee the past couple of days get fluids and protein in and that helps my hunger i have learned. I have been sticking to protein bars instead of shakes (I can't do shakes anymore, gag at the thought of them) I need healthy snack ideas?????

I work as a nurse as well night shift. I had a hard time adjusting. On busy nights it's really hard for me to take in my fluids and eat.... I also retain 2-3 lbs of water. Whenever I work i noticed that I wont loose weight until a day or two after my shifts are over .

I retain 2-3 lbs when I work nights

So last night I took a Tea.... A senna one in order to fix certain problems with going #2. It's been 8hrs usually the tea works in 4. I am suppose to go to an all day meeting and my stomach is rambling away. This doesn't look good..,

Hey everyone. Prior to my surgery my boyfriend and I have had some trouble. Not big trouble but some. Now that I feel more confident I feel very indifferent. To the point where he has noticed. I don't know of this is a phase or I am just done with our relationship. Has this happened to anyone?

I drink with straws just cause I can take liquids fasters that way

thank god it was wayyyyy better than i thought. senna didn't kick in till this evening. weird cause its usually fast on me

I sent you a request on FB I hope I did it right

Finally after a 2.5 week stall (ugh how dreadful) where I was ranging from 205-207 I weigh in today at 203!! A size 14/16 as of this week as well!!!

Feb 8. Surgery weight 240. Weighed in today at 203. Finally broke my 2 week stall. I am ready for onederland!

I have Kaiser as well, had surgery done at Kaiser West Los Angeles as well :-) I didn't have to pay for anything but every plan is a little different. I stayed overnight, thats how long Kaiser keeps you unless you have complications. I would call the admitting department in regards to when and how payments are due and paid.

Got my Flow second month in a row. Woohoo! Downfall is I am retaining some water weight, grrrr.

We are stalled at almost the same weight. My cousin stalled at this weight too when she had her VSG last year. We are so close to onederland!
