234.6...finally a loss! But won't meet my target. Oh, well...

I'm in, too!

Had a weird bad day...up 2 pounds one day for no reason, then back down the next. Oh, well... HW 265.8 SW 260 CW. 236.2 I'm kinda old, so likely a slow loser, but I'm good with slow but steady! Thanks and good week to all!

7 weeks out; no problems with jerky. I carry a package of turkey jerky in my car for emergency meals!

Two nights; no drain. Leak test at the end of surgery. I really don't think surgeons are "saying" you have a hiatal hernia when you don't. At least Aetna will not pay more for the hernia repair, but as someone else said, my surgeon corrected it anyhow. I knew I had it from pre op testing. If you want to go to Texas, BMI in San Antonio has great surgeons! Mine was Dr. Seger; Dr Duperier also is. "Top Doc". And, as a side benefit, both are very attractive and have super bedside manner. At least that was my experience.

HW 265.8 SW 260 CW 236.8 Thanks, Dema

Yes, mine are gone, too. Glad not to feel guilty seeing them uneaten...thanks, all.

Hi, all I am 6 weeks out and doing great. I have quite a few packs of bariatric soups, puddings etc I will never use. Also, some shake mixes with only a serving taken out. (My taster was not happy with protein shakes after surgery.) I know there are folks on limited income who could make use of what I have. Happy to put together a package and send your way...anywhere in US. PM me here if you are interested.

HW 265.8 SW 260 CW 238.4. (Whoot...stall is maybe over for now)

Weight today: 239.8...still stalling...boo :-(

Ok....I, too, have been in a stall and after 8 days beginning to creep down again. HW 265.8 SW 260 CW 239.6

CW 240.0....dreaded three week stall (but in my fourth week)

Even though I did not have frequent reflux before surgery, my doc put me (and likely all his patients)!on 40 mb of omeprazole daily for at least 3 months. Not a hint of acid issues so far at 4 weeks out.

That means we have already lost almost 20% of our weight loss goal. Wow!!!!

Yes, my pain was pretty bad for a couple weeks, getting better gradually and now very infrequent problem. Just been able to sleep on my sides for a couple days. Sleeve date was 12/10.
