Glad to hear I'm not alone on this. Over the last 3 months, I'd stall for a week, lose a size, then take off again. But now I've been the same weight for 1-1/2 weeks and my 14's are still tight (next size down). At my 3 month check-up, I'd lost 80 lbs since my surgery date and the doctor told me to expect it to slow down some, but hey - this isn't slow - this is stopped! I'm going to try to get more fluids in. Been walking at lunch and bowflexing after work, but maybe I need to add some evening treadmill walks.

Surgery: RNY Surgery Date: 10/23 Surgery Weight: 426 Height: 5'4" Current Weight: 346 Total weight loss: 80 lbs.

I had the lapband before and my doctor or nutritionist didn't have any type of problem with me drinking milk. They were all for it. Sorry, don't know why your nut thinks different. Maybe you should ask for specifics. felicia

My surgeon makes me drink three cups a day. I'm having no problems. We need the extra calcium and vitamin D for our bones and it's also a good source of protein. The only reason you shouldn't drink it is if you're lactose intolerant. If you are lactose intolerant, you can get a different kind of milk. Don't worry. Milk is good for you as long as you're not drinking like a gallon a day! LOL

I had my surgery oct. 30th and didnt have any milk till about 4 days ago and ive been on a milk kick and have been having about 3 cups a day. one nutrition class said absalutly no milk and one class said its fine...well is it or isnt it? please let me know what you think
