Topic: RE: I'm not loosing!!
Kati,
You are doing EVERYTHING RIGHT. Our bodies take a little time to adjust. They are not sure what is happen and the weight loss slows (or stops) because it thinks it is going into hibernation. You will weigh yourself one day soon and will be down 3 or more pounds. I hate the stalls but they all pass and they are usually followed by a big loss. Hold in there! I can't wait till you post about that loss!

Topic: RE: Are you still sipping your fluids?
Hi Camille,
I find myself drinking more than sipping as well. I don't think it will streach the pouch as the water will exit fairly quickly and it is not like we are drinking a huge amount in one gulp.

Topic: RE: How's everyone Weight Loss & eating going?
10 weeks 4 days post-op. I'm down 45.2 lbs.
334 day of surgery
288.8 this morning.
I've been bad and have started introducing carbs to my diet when I should not (by my doctor's plan). I'm going back to basics tonight with my dinner. Even with breakfast this morning I wound up eating less than I thought I would because the bread made me feel miserable as I was eating it.
I may have cheese soup for dinner just to make it a light night. Then make sure I go back to my true basic eating plan.

Topic: Are you still sipping your fluids?
Hello September members,
I was just wondering about the fluids, Are you still sipping or do you drink with a normal swallow. I try to sip, but sometimes I am so thirsty I drink and swallow and feel a little discomfort at my pouch. Do you think that would result in stretching it?
I would surely appreciate everyone's thoughts on this.
Topic: RE: checking with with September surgeries

Topic: RE: The scale won't move !!!
I was banded on 9/7/2007 I lost 35 lbs and then it stopped. The scale stopped moving about 3 weeks ago. I also have not had a fill yet I will be getting my first fill on 11/28/2007. My doctor said I will start lossing again after I have the fill. I have not been able to do any exercising because I had a problem with my incision. I started going to gym this week I hope that helps
