I am still stuggling with protein. I just don't love it. I get one protein shake in a day and know I have to get another but just can not seem to force myself. Something to work on I guess.

I go to my PCP tomorrow I prefer dr scales over my home scale.
I think my biggest challenge is exercise right now. I went on a tour of my local YMCA tonight and am pretty sure I am going to join. They have all the workout equipment for aerobics, cardio, and strength training as well as yoga classes, aerobic classes, spinning classes, and other classes. So I should be able to find a routine I like and it is only 2 or 3 miles from my house. Oh and no contract I can pay month to month.

Still on soft foods, and having a real problem with nausea. I forget to start out eating slow, and end up in the bathroom within 5 minutes. Am walking 20-30 minutes/day, and today I did a 1 mile workout video (only had to stop and rest a couple of times).
I'm really frustrated with the slow progress the last 3 or 4 weeks.
I'm a combination of Mary and Lisa... I have been out on the TN board, but thought I would check out this board. I too have been in a stall (Lisa) and feel like I'm the slowest loser in the world (Mary). I'm glad to have read your posts, because it lets me know it's not just me!
Starting weight: 246 (6-1-07)
Surgery weight/date: 230 (9-4-07)
Lowest: 196 (10-5-07)
On the 5th of this month, I got all excited 'cause I had lost 50 pounds since June when I sought out my doctor. I have not lost ONE POUND since then!!!! I actually went up 3.5 pounds with my period on the 11th, thought that plus some would come off after that, but NO! It too****il Sunday for those 3.5 pounds to come off. Today I am 7 weeks out from surgery and SO hoped to be below 195 today. I had another 2 week stall last month and only dropped 4 pounds from that one. I sure hope I drop more when this one is over.
Does anyone know what causes these stalls?

Hi,
My surgery date was 9/11/07. I am not moving along too fast either. Don't ru**** You have been eating fast all of your life. There is no hurry anymore. Try doing something while you are eating, like house cleaning or something to keep you from thinking about finishing your food already. I take a bite and busy myself with something, then I will go back and take another bite and keep doing that until I have ate enough. I have the same problem as well. How long can you possibly eat smooth creamy yogurt? You can't chew it, there is nothing to chew. I guess you just keep swishing it around your mouth for awhile and then swallow it. Ha Ha. I have a real problem with this as well. Keep your chin up and slow down a wee bit.
Yours truly,
Brenda NJ
