Oh, you are doing really well though since your surgery was just in November. Give it time, the stalls will come and go and will become more frequest as you get further out from surgery and you have less and less to lose. I felt like I was stalling for a couple weeks at a time ever since month 3 but now that I look back, it has averaged out to be double digit losses each month when all said and done.

I stall constantly now and then will just lose a few lbs out of nowhere. Regardless, the bigger picture shows constant losses. Early on after surgery you can look at it daily and weekly and see good results, but after 3-4 months, you need to step back and maybe start looking at your losses over a month then, otherwise you may be a little disappointed.

Like I said, I feel like I stall for 2 weeks at a time now but I eventually lose weight for the month. At my 6 month appointment a few weeks ago, my doc said I am where I should be at 1.5 years out, so trust me it will come off!!! Patience is definitely a virtue with this surgery.

Eh, don't worry about the guys wanting/not wanting you. I would take a girl with some substance to her who is happy than a thin girl who is unhappy about herself. Make yourself happy first and the guys will come flocking!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
