    I Hate Stalls!

    Hi are you both getting in your 64 ounces of water everyday and protein ? Although you may not be losing pounds you are probably losing inches, I know I felt the same way and my clothes were still getting looser then I drop a pound, just continue to do what your doctor says and I am sure your stall will break soon. Good luck.

    Hello Everyone

    Welcome Donald your taste buds does changed after surgery LOL, things I use to love to eat before surgery I cant even stand the smell lol, have you tried other Protein drinks? I am drinking premiere protein without any problems as well as occasional Isopure thats already mix . Congrats on your choice to be healthy and I agree with your doctor as time progress you will have more energy, have you tried walking for at least 10 - 15 minutes per day try that may help with your energy as well. As far as Vitamins I am taking chewables by bariatric advantages cherry flavor and love them. Congrats again on your choice to be healthy and i am sure before you know it your blood pressure will be under control and you will be off those meds as well. By the way I love that fish you caught, pure protein LOL. Keep us posted my friend.

    Roomie

    Hi I had a private room and my husband had his own bed too and spent the night with me everyday I was in the hospital. They like for your support person to be there with you so they can assist you with walking . It was great. And the floor was just for patients who had the surgery and it was great. Good luck with your procedure.

    Surgery next week ....

    First I would like to say congrats on your choice to be healthy, you got this, everyday will be a new adventure for you the unknown can be scary but trust me when I say this the new you is so worth it, I had no fear of the surgery and was like you afraid of the what after, but i had the best sleep ever as well as while I was recovery i was not in that much pain and i was burning the wheels off of my iv pole as I walk around the room. The rewards are so worth it, I was taking off all of my diabetic medications upon my release from the hospital and my blood pressure medications, I was even taken off of my high cholesterol medication within two weeks. I have been off all meds within two weeks of having my surgery on May 19 and I have more energy and feel great. I will keep a spot on the losers bench . keep us posted my friend and its great that you have supportive friends.
  9. Congrats I am happy that you are doing well and adjusting well with your new tool keep up the great work.
