yes it is normal. mine lasted about 2 months

May 21 , 2014 will be one year, what a difference

let me know results. thanks

May 21 will be 1 year for me also, have lost about 130lbs in 10 months and have been holding same weight for about 2 months, can be frustrating. weight is kind of up and down, hoping to snap out of this.still working out and eating right.

May 21, 2014 will be 1 year post op from gastric bypass, my goal was 200 lbs, but have changed it to 199lbs., current weight after 11 months is 210, started at 340 lbs. may not make 199 by May 21, but should be close. have no regrets in doing this, feel so much better. I have had my ups and downs, but glad i did this a year ago

I don't do cereal and milk anymore, had it twice in 6 months and was not good to me. I was a milk drinker before my bypass, but have had less than 1/2 gallon in 9 months.

May 21, 2013 and now 9 months later, down 120 lbs. I feel better, try to eat healthier and workout 4-5 times a week. weight lost has slowed to 5-7 lbs a month compared to 15-20 lbs a month in yhe early months, but that is OK.

you deserve to take naps. do this for a couple of weeks and then do a little walking and then slowly increase your walking. main thing is NOT to do nothing after the surgery, exercising it the key.

I think 9 weeks out is too soon, i waited 6 months before i drank. i dont think people will think you are a party pooper for not drinking. you have to ask yourself how serious am i about losing weight. what if there is food there at party, are you going to eat so people won't think you are fun. remember, it's all about you now for awhile. i think you can still have fun at a party and not drink and eat. i am not trying to be an A$$, i am 8months out and lost about 115#s, the road has been tough, but it can be done. Again, not trying to piss anyone off.

great job, next week will be 8 months for me and down 112 #, my weight loss has slowed down, can get frustrated at times, but i still try to eat right and workout 4-5 times a week. losing about 5-7# per month.

NSV:Ok,I was wearing 3x shirts before surgery in May, have reduced to 2x for several months. Opened my Christmas gifts and wife had bought me 3 shirts size 1x. I told her a was not ready for this size. She told me to try them on, well.. I was Wrong, 1x was just right, sometimes it is hard to go down a size, just not use to it. Hope all had a Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year

makes you feel good, doesn't.

ok, had gastric bypass on May 21, 2013, have lost about 100lbs in 6.5 months. went from size 50 waist to size 40. shirt size from 3x to 2x, not ready for 1x yet. had a stall most of november, but stayed up and kept eating right and going to gym. i had i friend of my daughter ask her if her Mom and Dad divorced, because he did not know who i was, funny as hell. thanks for all the topic to her on this site. it has helped

if iron is low and doctor recommands iron pills, poo will turn green and smell will be bad.

i finally did the same today, stayed in the low 240's all of November, just kept working out and watching my intake. good luck

Sleep apnea was gone in a month after only 20 lb weight loss

from Kilgore, had my surgery on May 21,2013, down 87lbs. good luck and stay focus.

i have lost about 80 lbs in 4 months, i am glad, but now weight seems to have slowed. wouild like to know if others have same thing happening. just trying to see if i am on the same path as others. thanks

went for my 4 month check up, have lost 72lbs since surgery and 82 lbs since April. Iron level was low, so I will start taking some iron pills. fill great, sleep great, get a little sick every now and then, but learning hoe to control it. hope to lose about 40-50 lbs.

i stalled about 2 weeks after 3 months, just watched what i ate and started losing weight again. got where i thought i could eat more, but was wrong. going back to a cup of something and not a bowl of something. it ready makes a difference. i do eat lot of friut, but just in small amounts.
