  1. So I have a question. I have been having ALOT of trouble with constipation, I'm drinking the water, moving around, yadda,yadda,yadda. What I reallly want to know is, Can being "backed up" cause my weight stalls? I find that I don't "go" for 4-5 days and by then I have to use a laxative and finally do go(sometimes on minutely!). And when I go a decent amount, I start losing pounds again. Sorry, totally TMI, but I need help!! Thanks,

  8. Been stuck at 219.6 for a damn week! But this morning was 217.2lbs woohoo!! Not sure if it was because I walked or increased my calories/fat intake or went #2 but I'm happy as a fox in a henhouse! a

  9. I need to wait and see what exactly I'm left with after I hit my goal weight. BUT, I do plan on the vaser lipo if needed, cut and color my hair, whiten my teeth, a little laser hair removal in "certain areas"(don't ask. ugh!), zap those damn veins off my legs, maybe some Latisse for my eyelashes as I have close to none, and a nice resurfacing of my face. Later, money allowing, I would look into a breast lift with a nice C cup perhaps. Maybe even a tummy tuck. Much of this is just me dreaming but some of it I do intend on making happen! Woohoo! I say if you got the money and are willing, go all the way baby! I've been fat ALL my life and have no clue whatsoever what I might look like with a thin,rockin' body. I am excited to find out though! Worm to butterfly in my case! Good luck!
  10. It is NOT just you at all! I am having a HORRIBLE time with constipation! Before my sleeve I went maybe every 3 days and now it doesn't seem that I can go on my own at all! I also have to take narcotics on a daily basis due to back pain so I know that exacerbates matters quite a bit but I have no choice right now. I've been trying different things like colace, dulcolax, Align probiotics, but so far nothing really makes a difference unless I take more than the recommended dose. I am also drinking more fluids but can only do so much. I firmly believe my weight loss "stalls" correlate in part with my constipation when I can't "go" for 4-5 days. Ugh! It's making me crazy! And to top it off, I've been stuck at the same weight for the past 7 days.(I have gone poo a few times) Thanks for listening.Good luck!
  11. Soory TMI, but getting overly "cleaned out" really screwed up weight loss. This is getting so discouraging--5 days same weight. I've never gone 5 days the with NO loss.Really messing with my mind! ;-(

  12. well, 47lbs gone and 88lbs to go! So far so good.

  13. Thank you for the suggestions so far. I am buying some benefiber TODAY! I am so DONE with this constipation. Thanks again!
  14. What does that "reputation" thing mean on our profiles??

  15. 41lbs down and 94lbs to go. weight is 224.2 today. Short term goal:want to be 199lbs by July 1st(my 38th birthday). 25lbs in just under 2 months. I think I can do it!

  16. I vomited and dry heaved right when I woke from surgery for maybe an hour or so. Not fun after having 80% of your stomach cut out but there was no damage done and it did go away. I had alot of that gas pain that took a couple weeks to get completely out of my body. By the 3rd day I was great and shopping on Revolution avenue. Everyone is different. You may NO nausea whatsoever. goodl uck!

    The Dreaded Stalls...

    It is so horribly frustrating!!! I would like to hear from a doctor for some scientific hard facts as to the WHY these stalls are happening and what exactly our bodies are doing during this time. I am NOT happy with losing 4oz in 3 days!! I know I know, patience. I am getting fed up with "patience". Grrrrr! Lol
  18. Damn weight is the same for 3 days now! I really hate this. I know I should be thankful for what I do lose,but I normally lose 1 lb every 1-2 days. It's so FRUSTRATING!!!
