I hope all works well for you. I see my doctor for my 1 year visit in July and she's supposed to give me a referral for plastic surgeon. I'm trying to figure out how much is good to have at ome time. I've lost 72 pounds so far.

Hi! My name is Roz, I am a 43 year old mother of 3 from NY. I had my surgery on July 20, 2011with Dr. Vamulapalli at Montefiore Medical Center. My surgery went well but I had to stay an extra day in the hospital because I wasn't able to drink enough liquids. On surgery day I was 248 and today, a month later I am 223. I thought that i had prepared myself for life after surgery but it is nothing like I anticipated. All of the sugar free drinks that I loved while preparing for surgery now leave a weird metal taste in my mouth and I was even having trouble with water and protein. There was a week that I threw up everyday, but I think that I may have been eating too fast and once I drank a little to soon. Because I could only eat about an once every few hours without the protein in between my puree stage has been extended. I'm still not eating verymuch but I can drink water now. I haven't lost any weight in the past 2 weeks or so so I'm a little scared. I worked out a little last night and that went well. I'm just really nervous and have not idea what is going on. I hope things get better.

Wow! Thank you very much for this post. I too hit a plateau at week 3 and have now gone 3 weeks without weight loss. Were you able to figure out why this happened to you? I don't eat much so I thought maybe my metabolism was slowing down. At least I know that this will pass.
