alwayscold 1 Posted January 7, 2013 One month today!!! I've had my ups and downs. I'm still trying to get into a routine since I started back to work. I get fustrated because I lost 16 lbs the first week and a half now I'm stuck at the same weight for the past 2 1/2 weeks. When will I loose again? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alwayscold 1 Posted January 8, 2013 How r u doing since your surgery gottagetfit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gottagetfit 15 Posted January 9, 2013 Doing great thanks, except a pill getting stuck in my esophagus last night for the first time. Down 30#, but seeing weight loss slowing now. Trying to go to the gym regularly and walk. I go back to the surgeon tomorrow for her to hopefully advance me to soft foods! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alwayscold 1 Posted January 9, 2013 That s good to hear that your doing good. Be careful with pills that happened to me once also. I'm surprised your not on soft foods already I've been on them for two weeks already. Every Dr is different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gottagetfit 15 Posted January 9, 2013 What did you do when a pill got stuck? It still feels weird at the bottom of my esophagus today and it's been well over 12 hours. I am able to eat and drink though... Yeah, my doctor is very slow progressing the food stages. It got drilled in our heads prior to surgery the risk of rupturing our pouches...i was on liquids for a week after surgery (no protein) then pureeds for a month! I am so sick of it! What do you like to eat on the soft stage? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
