I haven't lost any weight in almost 4 weeks. I go for my 2 month check up and I haven't lost any weight since my last appointment. How is this possible? I know when I went back to regular foods, my...

When I was in the hospital my surgeon told me that I would feel a pressure in my chest when I am full. So, that has been the gauge I have been going by. I don't know why I am able to eat more than a 1/2 cup of food. I haven't been able to eat even 1/3

I just bought my rowing machine and I couldn't be more excited. I already have a treadmill, a kettle bell and resistance bands. I think the row machine will really help me to get out of this plateau I've been in for the last few weeks. Now if I can onl

I swore before I had this surgery that I wasn't going to be one of those people who "test" their pouch. That I was never going to drink coffee or a diet soda again. Here I am, almost 6 weeks out, a...

Well, if I had any doubt about my weight loss, my boyfriend family reassured me that I have absolutely lost weight. I was bombarded with questions about the surgery, my recovery, how much I'll lose...

That was intense. I literally felt like I was dying. I felt like I was hyperventilating and on the verge of passing out. I felt weak and sweat and scared of dying. I've never been so close to passing out in my entire life. I thought my boyfriend was go

Gotta admit I've been struggling a bit. I am unable to get 60 oz of water in, averaging about 25-30 a day. I'm barely getting any protein in too. I get about 1\2 of a protein shake in & try to ...

It's taken a few days but I'm finally feeling like my old self. The pain of my incisions are gone and the sharp pain I had in my side decided to give me a break today. I could even lift my arms lon...

I had my surgery on 3/1/16 and I haven't wanted a bite of food. It's been water, Ginger Tea and sugar free popsicles the entire time. Today, I woke up and all I want is something real to eat. I don't care if it's mashed potatoes, yogurt, apple sauce or

The pain has subsided a lot but when I sip water, it's painful. Anything more than a small sip hurts for a few seconds but then passes. I haven't had anything other than water, ginger tea and sugar...

That first 24 hours after surgery were TOUGH! The liquid Vicodin did hardly anything at all, it just knocked me out. Luckily, today I feel so much better. Still sore but I'm moving around a lot easier now. Getting my water in has been difficult and try

Good lord, I am nervous. I had a revelation though and it's made me feel a bit better. Part of my fear was the reaction to the anesthesia. When I've had oral surgery, I fought against the gas due to a panic attack. It was so bad they couldn't proceed.

I just got into a huge fight with my Sister, which went from zero to 100 in about 1 minute. Luckily, we've both apologized and have agreed to move on but, in the course of the argument, she hinted ...

I've noticed that the closer my surgery gets, the more I am here. It's less than a week and my insides are in a panic. I still can't believe I am doing this. It is SO drastic. I am risking my life!...

I was doing so well. Getting my 1200 cals in. Walking 30 min to an hour a day. I was finally losing weight. I stood up off the couch and turned slightly..and with that, my knee gave out. It started hurting and it hasn't stopped. I've iced it and I've s
