I seem to be stuck too!!! My surgery was 1/21/08, if I count my weight before I started my pre-op diet, I'm down 72lbs, but if I count from my surgery date, I'm down 51lbs! It's getting frustrating now after the weight just fell off up to now!!! As far as a favorite food....I'm the Stricture girl, so anything I can keep down is GREAT!!! By the way, I'm doing very well after the last procedure, no throwing up.....keeping my fingers crossed that this is it!!!

I just had my 3 month surgiversary and I am down 70 pounds. I am in a stall right now and I have noticed it started when I first got sick. Once I was able to eat I dropped almost 10 pounds and now I am stalled again since I am sick once again. My fav thing to eat is anything that goes down. LOL Right now I am craving fresh fruits and those go down good for me. ***mutters stupid esophgeal web***

I'm just wondering where everyone is at on the weight loss front. I am a week shy of my 3 month surgiversary and am down 57lbs as of today. How is everyone else doing so far? I'm stuck in a stall right now (rolls eyes) but I'm trying to truck through it. Haven't had any food problems yet. Oh, and right now my favorite thing to eat is sliced strawberries tossed in Splenda and then poured over cottage cheese. Oooh, YUM!

Hey Tracie, sounds like you, me and Kathy (who also posted) are triplets! I let it go so long after my surgery because I thought the throwing was something I was doing wrong until I was down my mom's on Easter Sunday and I started throwing up even water and black stuff which was blood from the ulcers I developed from all the throwing up, I got scoped the next Wednesday and all was well for about 2 weeks then went downhill fast. I called my doc this past friday and since I was still keeping down water, they didn't admit me and did the scope as an outpatient procedure yesterday. I am keeping foods down again, just going slow, but my surgeon said it could even come back again, he said he's never had to do it more than 3 times....I just pray it doesn't come back! Definately we are not taking in enough calories, our bodies are in starvation mode and holding onto everything it can, so frustrating. I just want to feel good again and not tired and pukey! Take care and keep me posted!!!! Laurie

I am sorry to hear about your neck injury. You need to be careful. I too am not hungry all the time but I do crave sweets. I will have a bite of something once in a while but not much. Which I am very thankful for!!!!!!
