vincereautmori you and I are doing the same and I excersice daily. I'm not complaining because I am so thankful for my sleeve. 15 more lbs and I will be at the weight I was when my husband and I got married. I was still overnight but I haven't see that weight in over 16 years. -

I have that head hunger and thank god I didn't have any issues either and I was walking 3 miles and lifting weights at 2 weeks. My issue is that I cook for my family everyday and I taste the food as I make it. It's horrible. Although I don't cook with sugar. But last week was my son's bday and I had a cookie. I was so mad at myself. I hate that. I wish chocolate would make me sicker than a dog. THAT WAY I Wouldnt Touch it. -

J Dillon that's great. Is that since surgery? I was sleeved on august 20 and I'm 30 lbs down. It's slow for me. I'm averaging like 3 lbs a week and I excersice so much. So frustrating. -
I live in southern annapolis. And I did have my surgery at aamc. My surgeon was Dr Gandsas. My experience was wonderful. I had my surgery on august 20th. I came home 2 days later. I used my pain meds through my iv as needed to get up and walk to ease the pain. I didn't have much gas at all but I walked as much as I could anyway. Several times a day. I started walking further everyday and today I walk 3.50 miles a day and am lifting weights.

Thumper I was sleeved on the 20th of august and I've lost 21 lbs so far. I excersice 6 days a week I normally do 30 minutes of cardio and 30-40 minutes of weights 4 days a week and 1 hour of cardio 2 days a week. I shared this on my the start of my 3rd week from surgery. I did over do it one day but I guess now my body is used to it because I feel great. I did have a 2 day stall while on liquids but now it's been pretty steady. And Karen I will keep you in my prayers it sounds like you have a lot on your plate. Just keep in mind that this too shall pass. -

I get pain on my left side after I've eaten. Is that a sign that I'm too full? I have my one month dr visit this week. I only lost 2 ounces since yesterday and I know I shouldn't weigh myself every day. Anyway my period is due soon and I'm hungry. Which I thought was wierd to feel like that after my surgery. This is the first time I've felt hungry like this. Does anyone else feel like this? -

I am 3 weeks out and nothing but broth really sits well with my sleeve. I've tried chick salad tuna salad egg salad and fish. I miss my liquid diet already. The thing is with broth I'm not getting enough protien in. Plus I'm excersiceing and burning between 400-500 calories a day. I've lost 20 lbs and am thrilled with my weightloss. -

I just had my coworkers tell anybody who asked about me while I was out. That I have had surgery. I'm working from home for 2 months too thank god. But I don't care what people think. I did this for me not for them -

I will be 3 weeks post op and have lost a total 18 lbs since my surgery. I am so happy with that lost. Today I have made it to my first goal. I have 9 lbs to go to reach my second goal. Thank god I feel great. I do get a little bummed when I go to friends and family get together because it always seems to be around lots of food. But I stay positive knowing that I'm losing this awful weight. I no longer have to take blood pressure medicine. So happy about that and excersice is much easier than it used to be. I have had some constipation but I know have 1 cup of decaf every morning and it seems to be helping. Prayers for everyone -

GREAT NEW SINGLE LOCATION FOR "STALL TALK!"
soniaJ replied to LivingFree!'s topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I am only 2 weeks out and I have been stalled for 3 days. I have only been able to drink 3 out of 4 shales a day. I've been excersiceing too. Do u think I'm not taking in enough calories?
