  1. Think I have finally moved from my stall. Just shy of 7 weeks and I am down 42 pounds. Minus 4lbs in the past three days. I also went to my Primary Care Physician yesterday and I have not only said good bye to 42 lbs (the equivalent weight of 5 gallons of milk) but I have now said goodbye to Metformin, Simvastatin and Lotrel. Two of them having been a part of my life for 11 years. I am also walking about five miles per day, climbing about 10 flights of stairs and burning about 3200 calories daily. I am feeling very good about my decision to sleeve and know I am headed for a better life. Come on summer and come on roller coasters. Enough about me. I would ask that you keep one of our September sleevers in your thoughts today. She has had her share of struggles since surgery and this morning they are thinking she has developed a leak. She will be tested this morning and if positive surgery to follow. Good luck friend. 11/12/13.
  2. I am 6 weeks post op tomorrow and just came off a 2 week stall. Down 38 pounds total.
  3. I mix in a frozen banana with my chocolate or strawberry Unjury and some soy milk and blend. The frozen banana adds nice flavor and thickens the drink to a shake consistency.
  4. Hopefully at the end of a two week long stall. And guess what, it started at 3 weeks. I am down 35 pounds all together, but only 25 since surgery. So I think there is nothing for you to worry about.
  5. My engine has stalled. Ok maybe not my engine but certainly my weight loss. I am three weeks post surgery and this is my first stall with weight loss. I have been stuck for four days and am curious when these occur, how long might I expect before my body wakes up and says, oh yeah, I am on a mission to lose weight and start do just that? I have increased my water and exercise so I am now open to thoughts. No I have not called my physicians office, I figure they have far more important things to do than answer such questions.
  6. Fortunately I an on Omeprazole so this is not a huge issue for me, unless I consume a little too much. Then I will get heartburn every time. My bodies way of saying " hey, I am all filled up". He also put me on Actigall to prevent Gallstones. Anyone else have to take these?
  7. Two weeks post surgery today Starting weight 311 pre op diet Surgery weight 300 Today's weight 282 Total loss 29 lbs so far. Goal weight 200.
  8. Congratulations you gotta be pretty pleased with that. You'll be in the ones before you know it.
