    fit bit

    Yes I have for the past 2yrs. I love it. It integrates nicely with myfitnesspal and it has an app on your phone(DROID or iPhone).
  2. So sorry it took so long to take a look at your myfitnesspal journal, but I can see easily why your weight loss has stalled. You are drinking too many carbs and calories, so here are my suggestions: Here's what my NUT told me after reviewing myfitnesspal... Do not use eat or drink the following: 1. G2 – Use Powerade Zero instead 2. No smoothies of any kind, not even if you make them yourself 3. No muscle milk – it is way too high in carbs 4. No cream Soups 5. No sugar free pudding OK to use between meals : 1. Lean shake 2. Pure Protein 3. Syntax whey isolate I am guessing that you have turned to protein shakes/smoothies, etc because they are convenient for meals, but they are most likely slowing your weight loss because they are higher in carbs. Please try to have 3 meals per day with about 2 ounces of protein food and 1 ounce of fruit or veggie or appropriate whole grain. Save the shakes for between meals
  3. Can I ask what your start weight and height was? I'm in the same boat I had surgery the same day as you and started out at 293.4 I had been stalled for an entire week with the scale moving up and down. I exercise and follow the meal plan and as of yesterday morning I was 280.6 I could cry, to think I altered my body in such a major way and I'm still not losing. I could've lost 10lbs in 3 weeks on my own.

    1-week stall....REALLY?!

    I was sleeved on 7/19 I have a not lost weight since 7/30. It's been incredibly frustrating disappointing and aggravating. I started at 293.4 on surgery day and I'm at 283.2 today and over the last seven days I've seen it go as high as 286. I emailed both my NUT and the nurse and they both said it's normal and it will pass. But I'm beginning to wonder when?! It's been a week now!

    weight gain 13days post op?

    Not really. I feel lighter. Other people have noticed I look smaller but I weighed myself this morning and I'm still gaining I'm actually at 283.4 this morning guess that's better than the 285 that showed up when I woke u at 6am and checked. I think I'm going to email the nutritionist before I take a sledgehammer to my scale.
  6. Hello I'm 13 days postoperative I was sleeved on 7/19 at Celebration hospital with Dr. Kim. Up until this week I had been consistently losing at least 0.5lb or more a day. My weight at surgery was 293.4. I know I'm going to be a slow loser as I have had a thryroidectomy and I my metabolism has been shot since then. Anyways here my question?! On 7/29 I was 280.8 On 7/30 I was 280.8 On 7/31 I was 280.2 Today I was 282.4???? That weight was on the same scale after using the bathroom. I did take some stool softeners and senna lax last night. And they did work this morning so how did I gain two pounds. I'm getting in at least 60oz of fluids and at least 60grams of protein(my NUT sat my Protein goals at 81-107grams because of my height I'm 6ft tall).

    Help... gained 4 lbs

    I'm in the same boat I'm 16 days post op and got down to 280 at around 11 days and as of today I'm up too 282.4. Depressing but at least I know it's not fat....it's either water or poo. Just have to wait it out.

    weight gain 13days post op?

    Still going up. Now I'm up to 282.8 I would laugh if I wasn't crying right now lol. I cut off 85% of my stomach just to gain weight? Talked to my nurse she mentioned starvation mood, poop, water retention blah blah blah. Upset right now.

    weight gain 13days post op?

    My time of the month is no where near. I did eat chili yesterday maybe it had a lot of sodium? I will get my thyroid hormones rechecked at my one month appt. I'm so obsessed with the scale I actually have 2 in my bathroom I weigh on. I will try to do every other day lol.
