    I had a good week up until Wednesday.  I worked out Wednesday morning and then by that afternoon I was having stomach pain.  I thought at first it was from working out.  Still had the pain by Friday morning, only worse and coming in waves.  Went to see the Dr. and he thinks it might be an intestinal hernia!  I got so depressed.  He told me to see how it goes and then call back at the end of this week.  By Saturday, I was having pain everytime I ate or drank something...now I am thinking it is a hernia and an ulcer.  Anyone have these problems at 2 months out?  The Dr. is out this week but the nurse said he will give him the message when he calls in later and see what he wants to do.  I am not having any throwing up or bleeding but the pain is pretty constant.  Not horrible pain, just there.  And I had to stop working out until we figure out if it is a hernia.  Then more surgery. 

    I am going to post this on the main board too to see if anyone has experienced these issues and what can be done.

    Thanks!
         

          
    I'm so sorry to hear about your strange pain  I don't have any advice, but I hope it doesn't require any surgery! (((((HUGS)))))

    OK, so I hope this is not breaking the rules because I have not had surgery yet but I thought I'd post anyways! Getting into the habit since my surgery date is right around the corner.

    I'm getting very excited about the notion of seeing my weight start with a 2 - - !!!

    Hope everyone has a great week :) 
    Oooh you're so close, you know it still takes some getting used to! I still write my weight sometimes with a 3 cuz it was that way for soooo long!

    Honestly, it feels like it'll never come.  Today the scale was up a pound... I'm afraid of stalling at this weight for a long time.  I know it'll come off eventually though... just wi****'d come off NOW! 
    I know how you feel, but stalls do happen and thankfully we do get through them. Bonne Chance! and remember patience is a virtue

    Highest weight.... 303lbs..
    surgery weight ....236lbs
    last week ..............222lbs
    this week ..............219lbs..

    Still loosing like a turtle but at least the numbers are moving now.. finally I may be off the plateau.. I sure hope so.. the nut at my support group said I lost all the easy weight before surgery( the weight I put on in the last few years) and now I was into the hardest weight to loose.. (weight that has been on for over 15 years.) That was the last time I was at this weight.. maybe she is right.. so on I will trudge .. a lb or two a week is better than none..

     I'm down 120 pounds - thanks to RNY!  Working on the next 25.  Then I'll tackle more...
    Howdy Folks,

    I'm a day late, but I LOST!!

    Starting Weight: 388
    Last Week: 262
    Today: 259 
     
    I'm within 9 pounds of where I quit losing on my last weight loss effort (250). Hoping I'll blow by that very quickly. (These silly mental walls we build!!)

    Everyone have a great week!!
    One food makes you larger, and one food makes you small... 
    Do the streets of San Fran clean out during the game? I think it's the best time to be out shopping or doing just about anything, because no one is out!!

    Hope your move is swift, uneventful and does not involve a third-floor walkup!
    One food makes you larger, and one food makes you small... 
    Woo Hoo- yeah for ended stalls!!!  I know what you mean , and I know I'm going to have a mental block around 220 cuz that's the smallest I've ever been as an adult.

    And yeah everywhere clears out on SB day, but we are actually moving into a 3rd floor walkup!!!!
