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!!!
-
Stomach/guts haven't been very happy these last few days. Feels sort of like an esophageal spasm(but not as severe as I've had before surgery).Hope it gets better soon.

Iam 5 weeks out from my surgery. I also went through the heightened sense of smell after surgery.It drove me CRAZY!! I hated it! I guess it took about 3 weeks for my nose to get back to normal. So glad for it too! Your smeller will hopefully become less sensitive soon as well.Good luck! Hang in there! -
800 calories is ok though. Prilosec is so wonderful! Saved me many times! I am down 34lbs (lost 2 lbs overnight) had a 3 day stall at 233.2 but 231.2 this am! woohoo! I am eating normal stuff, but no raw veggies or fruits like you.Nothing has given me too much trouble as of yet.although i did eat about 4-6oz of smoothie too fast and had to stick my fingers down my throat! Yuk! Glad 2 talk 2 u!

This losing a pound every 2 days is bugging me. I'm used to losing a pound a day! I'm not one for patience I guess!

Trying not to panic

I agree with Meggiep. The sleeve is only a tool. We still need to count calories, carbs, protein, and make sure we exercise. It is imperative we make sure we get enough protein and water in daily. I know counting calories is tedious but it may really help you figure out why you are gaining weight. I am one month out and have lost 30lb.s. I write down EVERYTHING that goes into my mouth every day and it has been my saving grace. You might be surprised what you find. Anyway, good luck and I hope you start losing again! :-) -
One month anniversary of sleev today. I have lost 30lb.s! woohoo! (now if only I could do that EVERY month! haha)

Super duper job sister!!!!!! I knew you could do it! Hang in there you're doing wonderful! Woohoo!

iI had my sleeve done through alighterme.com"s Dr.Ramos Kelly. 3/15/11 and I must say I had a great experience down there. I totally trust him and felt very confident in my choice long before I even met him. When I DID meet him, I knew I had made the right decision. He has a caring bedside manner and will answer any questions you may have. His calm demeanor puts you at ease right away. I'm glad I chose him for my surgery and I would do it again in a heartbeat! If you have any questions I can help with, please send me a message. Good Luck!

How are you doing sister? Over the gaining ? Must be frustrating! My weight stalls for like 3 or 4 days at a time! Grrrr! WHY? I hate it.But 26lbs down and 3 weeks out so I shoudn't complain. Hope you're doing better!

I took 3 weeks off total.One week for the surgery down in Mexico(4 days) and 2 weeks at home recuperating. My first day back to work was somewhat tiring but by the 2nd-3rd day I ws feeling pretty normal. I'm a Health unti coordinator and CNA2 at a hospital and my job can be strenuous. But I personally did well. 3 weeks was good for me. good luck!

Same weight today as yesterday.I'm trying to take my own advice and be patient but it's NOT easy.Ugh!
