Whoosh effect and weight loss stalls
AmyNCgirl replied to xochtlem's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved on 3/14 and I've hit this same experience as you. Except i've gained .2 almost daily for the last 3 days and it's getting really close to gaining a pound so I've feel your concern. I've reached out to my nutritionist to find out what I can do to break the stall. I'm more active because I've returned to work and walk the campus here 2x/day. Working on my Protein intake but otherwise I feel great. The scale just hasn't been nice to me after the 3rd week. Let's just keep focused and stay the course. I have seen the inches leave so there is still progress. -

Surgery scheduled 3/16
AmyNCgirl replied to KristyVSG's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
My surgery date is March 14th! I'm estatic and I just enjoyed myself tremendously this past weekend. But oddly enough, I didn't binge eat. I just enjoyed the foods and savored the flavors but no binge eating and when I thought about my choices they were all Protein packed even the Peanut Butter. So Yay Me!! I've worked too hard on this journey to give it all up now. I'm all in!!! -
March 14th is the day! I've started my preop diet and im super pumped!!!!

This process is moving so quickly for me. I've had my first consultation on the 4th and my psych evaluation in the 10th and my upper GI eval. Next is my first group nutrition class on the 21st. They've said that it's likely my surgeon will be the end of February or early March. My 20th wedding anniversary is February 24th and we're supposed to go cruising for a week. I'm willing to eat the pre-op diet during the cruise if that's what it takes for me to get on the losers bench.

I'm in Winston Salem and I've just recently started my journey. I have my psych evaluation on this week and Nut visit in 2weeks. I was given a timeframe of late February or early March. I'm nervous and excited at the same time.

What Was Your Final "straw That Broke The Camels Back"
AmyNCgirl replied to bigjoe102's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
The above picture did it for me. I'm the one on the right. I felt like s linebacker yet everyone told me how nice I looked at my brothers wedding. I was so angry at myself for getting to be that large. I've loss and gained weight all my adult life and just made excuses for my relapses. Enough is enough. My dad died at 46 for being a disobedient diabetic and I REFUSE to be so selfish that I give up on myself. I haven't had the surgery yet but my journey has already begun. My mind is made up and I have an appt to meet the surgeon on Friday.
