alene 74 Posted July 23, 2013 Yep, I do believe that I'm officially in the dreaded 3 WEEK STALL!!! I've been the same weight since Friday. Thank God for this wonderful site, because if I didn't know about the 3 week stall, I would be totally freaking out. I'm cool, it's all part of the process...but. .. WHEN IS IT GOING TO END?????? :-D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alene 74 Posted July 23, 2013 I'm two weeks out too, but I went on a clear liquid diet a week before surgery so this officially makes three weeks. 1 lovexciaral reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jillybeans58 17 Posted July 23, 2013 Does anyone try lunch meat? I have been having really thin sliced turkey and American cheese....only two ounces total. I was hoping that the Protein would help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sguer56 12 Posted July 23, 2013 I have to vent... Yesterday was my son's birthday and we celebrated at chuck e cheese... I had to sit and watch as everyone enjoyed pizza, wings, salad bar, cake, and ice cream... While I sipped on Water. It was worse than when my family took me out to eat at a Mexican restaurant (my favorite food) while out of town and tried to coax me into eating something while I was on my preop liquid diet. Everything smelled so good, and I was dying to have some cake (which is something I love) everyone kept commenting on my willpower, but that had nothing to do with it... The fact that any of that food could have caused complications and sent me to the hospital is what scared me into not eating it. Most times, I feel like nobody around me understands... 1 Mayfly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Melhendy 15 Posted July 23, 2013 Does anyone try lunch meat? I have been having really thin sliced turkey and American cheeseToday I had a lunchable that was turkey and chedder cheese. It only had about 1 oz. each of meat and cheese. did not eat the crackers or the small candy. It went down okay. It was nice to have something to chew! Technically, I'm not supposed to be on soft Proteins until tomorrow, but I had a couple eggs yesterday, so I thought I would try the lunchmeat/cheese thing today. Going to pick up some cottage cheese later this afternoon for tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melhendy 15 Posted July 23, 2013 How are all the July 8-ers doing with their incisions? My doctor glued mine and all but one the glue has come off. A couple of the larger ones still have glue IN them, like in the middle of the incision - will that eventually dissolve or what? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also just got a cold so sneezing and coughing is really sad......in fact I am in a really bad place because of it. Just so miserable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lorrieann1 49 Posted July 23, 2013 My glue is all gone except what was left on my actual skin and is peeling still but the wounds are all closed well. Funny that one of the tiniest ones gave me the most pain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
