Hi All I'm new here!

I had my R-N-Y on Jan 5th and I feel really good! But I also feel that I might be eating too much! I don't know what to do I have my next Appt with my Dr Feb. 25 I have lost 40lbs but i'm now stuck there!!!

Hi Ann, Welcome to the January board! ONLY 40 lbs??? That is GREAT! I have a doctors appt tomorrow and hope to have finally lost to the 20lb mark - but probably not... People are friendly here and offer great support and advice. Good luck on your weight loss and your new life! Just enjoy the journey! Barbie

ANN!! Hello and WELCOME!!! You are doing GREAT!!!!!!! I know what you mean at times I think I eat to much, just depends on what your eating, Just give it some time the weight will come off!! Kristin

Ann, Welcome. Wow, 40 lbs is great, congrats. Dont worry you will lose more over time. I had surgery 3 weeks ago and lost 18 lbs. Once you can start to work out then I would think the pounds would come off more. linda

Hi Ann We share the same surgery date and I too have lost 40 lbs. I noticed that I too have been stuck for a week at a plateau!! But, I am trying to push water and exercise to help move the scale along!! Take Care!! Carolyn

We must be running about the same.... my surgery was 1/8 and I am -36 this morning. You are probably not stuck, just stalled. I find that I seem to lose 0 for 4 days and then it hits me 2 one day and 3 the next. We are all different and our bodies have been thru a lot. A lot for the better that is. You gotta love that meltin feelin. Good luck. Dawn

I had my RNY the same date, and have lost 25 pounds. I just got through a 3 week plateau. I found that joining a gym and increasing the water intake helped. I have been experimenting with many new foods...so far, so good. I had salad today for the first time. Never thought my strongest craving would be salad. Tanya
