That's awesome!! I got down 50 lbs and have been on a stall for two weeks!! Stalls suck but it helps to see others get through them!! ; ) I stopped taking the omeprezole and my doc will probably not be happy but every time I took it my stomach hurt! I am still taking everything else except the calcium which I have a hard time swallowing. : ( I probably should get a pill cutter I guess!! So we are running about the same! : )

Oh good to know it will move again!! Haha I am at 220 and want to see 219 sooooo bad I can taste it!! Literally!! Haha I'm trying to get my water in but it's not easy at all!! Ugh! Move scale move!! Thanks for giving me some hope!! ; )

Thanks! I'm waiting impatiently!! Hahaha grrrr I'm glad to know its normal though!

He wants all calories to come from food now not liquids and he wants me to eat protein first then if room vegetables and if room... Hardly ever... Carb. Drink anything zero calorie and non carbonated in between meals.. Three meals a day.

I am a month and a few days! My doc took me off all protein shakes the start of the third week! He wants all my calories to come from food and not liquids now. I have to drink and thing non carbonated and zero calorie in between meals. Three meals a day.. No liquids 30 min before a meal or 1 hour after a meal.

My doc only required me to do liquid diet three days before surgery. They have to put in a fifth incision to put a paddle in and hold up your liver. My surgery went perfect and I am 4 weeks out and a few days and my tummy is doing fine. Just make sure you tell your doc. I'm sure it should be fine just do your best. I got wonton soup one day and gave away the wonton and sipped the broth!! Haha it was gooood!

I am a month and a few days out and I just ate a whole slice of med. Pizza not the crust.... It made me full but no issues... Is this bad?? Hahah first time trying pizza.

Count me in!! I was sleeved 4/23 and am on a two week stall!! Maybe I can get it moving!! Haha I will post my weight and goal weight on the 30th??? Or do I post it now? Lol

I was sleeved 4/23 and have been on a stall for the last two weeks!! Very frustrating.... But I feel better and that's what matters!! Although I do want to throw the scale out the window every time I step on it.... Maybe it's broke?? Bahahaha hang in there Sleevers.... I hear stalls happen often and it's a way for your body to adjust and rearrange itself before it let's go of any more of it's stored back up weight. Shrug. It's gonna be a roller coaster ride!! I love roller coasters!!! Wooot!!

Awesome... Did you encounter any stalls!?? I have been on one for two weeks!!

Awesome job!! Did you encounter any long stalls!?? I'm a month out and have been stalled for two weeks now! : ( what did you do to get it moving again? Or how long did it last?? That's if you had any! Haha it's really frustrating! You look marvelous!!

No hair loss here but I'm only a little over a month out. I have been and continue to take Biotin. Not sure if it helps but trying it. Also making sure I get in my protein. : )

I was sleeved on 4/23... I have been the same weight for two weeks now!!! Getting frustrated... Anyone have the same issue and what can I do to get it moving again?? Ugh!!!

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate your encouraging words! I am gonna wait a week before I weigh myself again! Haha That all makes sense... I'm so happy to have this forum to talk to people who have been through it!! Thanks again and you look Awesome!

I am taking biotin chews... Haven't lost any hair yet... But ya I hope my stall doesn't last that long I will go crazy!! My friend showed me a picture of myself before I started this journey and reminded me how much different and better I look and feel... It helped a little... But I'm gonna get a new scale if mine keeps reading 220!!! Hahahah

Sleeved 4/23 I am on a stall too... One week now!! Does anyone know what to do to get moving again?? Getting so frustrated!! : (

It may be because of the kind of food your eating. But get it checked or at least call doc and ask.

I was sleeved 4/23 and I have been stalled for a week now!! It sux! Haha have you moved again? What did you do? I'm getting annoyed! Hah

Awesome!! I was sleeved on 4/23/14 and I was doing good but I haven't lost or gained 1 single pound in a week!! Did you ever encounter this?? What can I do to get it moving?? Ugh!!!

My doc gave me little one ounce plastic cups and I filled four of them up with whatever I was drinking at the time and sipped one over each 15 min period!! Worked great! Never got full and liquids got in! ; ) likewise When I started cottage cheese and such I used 2oz cups with lids you can get at the store to measure so I didn't over do it. Filled em up and kept them in the fridge and grabbed one for whichever meal I was having.

My doc took me off protein shakes.. : ( but I have been and still am taking biotin chews I found at GNC and I haven't had any hair loss just normal shedding!

I think that's my problem... I'm not getting enough protein!! Thanks for bringing that up!! Gonna need up the protein starting tomorrow!! Still in the soft foods.

I never lost my energy... I started vitamins (chewables) three days before surgery... I also found chewable squares of biotin and I have not lost any hair at all except normal shedding. I found protein ice that I drank on my clear liquid diet!! I think this helped! It is real high in protein... Chike has a great ice coffee packed with protein and tastes great! I had this every morning. Their shakes Taste better than most as well. I had my surgery 4/23!! I had a ruff day the first day post op because I didn't get my butt up and walk enough... The gas is what hurts! My doc wouldn't give heavy narcotics because it binds you up but he took pitty on me and gave me one dose and said "walk walk walk" Ahahah so I did and felt much better!! Not sure if this helps.

Awesome!!! Great job!! Did you encounter many stalls!!!?? I am in one now I think it's so aggravating. Eating next to nothing and no loss? Grrrr keep up the good work! Congratulations on your success!
