I'm stuck too.... I'm seven weeks out and losing about a half pound a day, so I'm happy. But food is no longer a happy event my favorite meal is a piece of cheese wrapped in a piece of lunch meat.

Was taking nature plus chewables Ick....

Anyone taking iron supplements? I've been on since before surgery but the chewable ones I am taking irritate my tummy so bad I can only take at bed. I could use some ideas on iron...

I also enjoy " Bariatric timer" android app.

If you have android the app is called "eat slower"

Food is no longer enjoyable....water isn't working either getting dehydrated no matter how hard I try.... but the weight continues to come off

Virgin bloody marys are delicious

Status Role Call SW- 372 Preop-344 Cw-312 Gw-175-180 And here are my before and one month pics....a few days late but nonetheless Lol.

Tomorrow is my one month will take a photo and post then.

I'm having pains in my abdomen and am three weeks out my doctor said it's just the muscles healing from surgery. She said its normal and should go away within a few weeks.

Surgery was February 16th got postponed in January due to illness. All is going well, not losing as quick as expected but getting 60~80 grams of protein and drinking 64~90 ounces of water a day. Looking for a good. "unflavored" protein powder. All ideas will help...

I'm still waiting on my surgery date. I've been reading everyone's posts for about a week now. Just saying hello!

Progress is a whole lot slower than expected, weight wise. I'm down 20 since surgery on the 16th, down 47 since November 1st when I started my pre surgery diet. Other than that I'm healing very well all incisions are pretty well closed and glue fallen off. My blood pressure is down and I'm off my water pills, also off all diabetes medications. Have soo much more energy and my lung capacity is increasing every day. Getting in my protein and my water almost every day as well. Loving Premiere protein chocolate with 30 grams of protein in each drink.

I sip virgin bloody Mary when out....

Day 16 post op, threw up for the first time today...liquid Tylenol didn't agree with me this morning. Been on liquids since pouch not happy! The stall is real as well...been at 18 lbs Lost for 4 days, kind of upsetting but I keep on keeping on.

Good luck Crosby!

Day 10 weigh in I'm down 16lbs... down a total of 44lbs

Caltrate makes a chewable calcium. But my Dr said to wait till I'm one month postop to take.

Not having any luck with protein intake... nothing tastes good since surgery, except my popsicles. I don't know what to do.

Day four postop and I'm settling in at home...gas pains are still horrible. I'm walking and drinking water eating what I can mostly broth with potato flakes. And jello. Good luck to all getting their surgery this coming week.

Good luck Roxanne and Go Go niner

Woo hoo! Summer poolside in a smaller swimsuit!

Omg have to be to the hospital for my surgery in less than 24 hours. Wow how the time has flew by (when I never thought it would get here) . Its been 18 years I've been looking into RNY and its almost finally here. Thanks to everyone for all the presurgical support and assistance. I'll update as soon as I can postop. We are having a family day today, going to a movie then swimming at an indoor pool, not sure if I'll make it back on later. See everyone on the losing side: )
