Awesome how has it been so far I'm kinda stuck in a stall right now

Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App

I just broke out of a stall a few days ago. Was stuck at the same weight for a week and a half. I don't stress about it though. I've noticed my weight stalls (and sometimes even goes up a pound) and then whoosh - I'm down 3-5 lbs in a matter of days. I'm pretty sure it's just my body building up and then releasing Water weight.

I stay focused on what I can control by sticking to my eating plan and trying to get exercise in at least 6 days a week. I can't control what the scale reads day-to-day, but I know as long as I do my part, eventually it will keep going down.

I had my surgery April 5 and last time I checked I was down 50 lbs. I don't go back to my dr. till July 19 so I am anxious to see what progress I make in the next month. I also just broke out of a stall a few days ago but I have been drinking more Water and added bicycle riding to the exercise I have been doing.

Surgery April 1, 18 weeks today. Down 39 pounds since surgery. I feel like I'm losing slowly but I was 221.7 going into surgery so I knew I would be. I'm just happy to be losing :)

Hi I had my surgery April 1st. Happy to say I'm at goal. I've lost around 60lbs but set a new goal because I'm still not the size I wanted to be (size uk) I'm fining it hard now to remember I still have to take vitimins etc. I had surgery coz I just wanted to be a normal person and stop obsessing about food diet etc. And I do feel I am that person now. Very happy. But I no I need to start looking after my self in other ways. And remember to a take my tabs and get my protien. Sounds like you are all doing well. Xx

      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.

      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.
