Who esle Stalls around that time of the month?



Recommended Posts

7 weeks post op today and down 38 pounds..I am happy about my progress..it's getting better and better. I am gaining more energy since starting my B12 and uped my calorie intake to about 500-600 daily ( I am hungry every 2 to 3 hours.) My average weight loss is 3 to 3 1/2 pounds a week so far. I started walking this week since gaining energy to do that! However I stalled in weight loss 1 week before my cycle which was last week and finally lost 1 pound today. has anyone experienced this type of stall and do you experience it every cycle? How many calories are you consuming daily?

The day I came home from surgery I started and gained 3 lbs after surgery. I was told attention hat point it was Water gain becz of all the IV fluids. I lost a total of 30 lbs and stalled again 4 weeks after surgery and yes, it was that time of the month. My room mate tried to say it was water gain again becz I had gained a pound, of course I was not buying it. I stalled for just a bit over 2 weeks and back to loosing. I am not sure if it is related to that time of the month or just perfect timing.

I have been in a stall for 3.5 weeks now. But I know it will end and I will start losing again. Keep doing what you are doing and you will be fine.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
