just sharing some good advise....
Hello,
I am so glad to know that everyone else is in a stall. I have been staling for 2 weeks now and I am getting a little aggrivated! How long did you stall? I have lost 26 lbs since surgery and doing REALLY great!
Congrats to everyone sounds everyone is doing great keep up the great work and Hope everyone has a MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I put a little (1TB) of flaxseed on my yogurt in the morning. 2-3 Docusates a day and I am eating veggies, so that helps. I know what you mean! I used to get at least 30 g fiber per day from food, and doesn't benefiber have only 5g or something? Anyway, you might need more.
I will be 4 weeks out on Tuesday and I have lost 21 lbs since surgery and 50 total. I am still have quite a bit of pain just below my left breast and I am throwing up alot even though I measure all my foods and never eat more than 1/4 of a cup at a time. I keep stalling and I am not quite sure why? I am not eating carbs of anything bad at all. Any advice?
Thanks!
Glad to hear you two are doing well. I am down 32.5 pounds. I'm at a small stall right now because it's that time of the month, but I'm sure it will go down a little more in the next few days. I go to the surgeon on Wednesday and hope I will be cleared to start working out. I hit onederland last week. I was so happy because I was kinda stuck at 200.5 for a few days and the scale just wouldn't move (very frustrating when you are so close you your first goal). I'm am now at 197. I am hoping to lose 7.5 more pound by New Year's. I want to be at 40 pounds lost. anyway, that's what's been going on with me.
Merry Christmas,
Amanda

So it lonly took me a couple days to find my way back to the Nov. Forum to see hwo you are all doing!
I wanted to update you all on me, so I had my first stall of probably many to come(LOL) and it was only about 1.5 weeks so not too bad. At that time I was down 29lbs and I am so freakin happy about that! So at the 6 week mark nothing which was to be expected, so later on that well this week I decided to climb back on the scale to make sure I was still doing good, and hoping the scale wouldnt go up, well it didnt and lsot another 4.5lbs YIPPE
So my total lost since PATS in Oct has been 47.5lbsAHHHHHHHHHHH only 2.5 till my first goal of 50lbs! It was my goal to get to before Xmas and Im still hoping that I will make it!
I was really happy to share this with you all.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Hugs

One thing I have noticed is that before my band, I could always eat a little more. But now, full is full. I've literally left "1 last bite" on my plate and pushed it away.
This is how normal people feel, on normal portions of food. This is not how I ever felt pre-band!
