Just found this board

I'm a little "slow" when it comes to technology! I've been posting on the main board for a month or two and just finally discovered this one. I had my surgery on 12/7. I guess I am one of the lucky ones because I really didn't experience much pain or nausea at all. I am so thankful for that because I know some people really have a tough go at it. My only complaint was the gas but that has settled down. My problem is that I started out losing so quickly.... 27 lbs by last Wed. and I have not lost a pound since. I know we aren't supposed to be watching the scales, but I was doing so well that I couldn't help it! Now I am paranoid that I won't lost as much during that "window" that everyone talks about and will not make it to that goal. Probably silly and I'm sure it will pick up again, but who else can I whine to if not my OH buddies? Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday.

Hi Theresa I had my surgery on 12/16 and am very fortunate. I feel good one week out. I wasn't bothered by nausea or gas. Very fortunate -- Don't worry about the weight stopping. There are many reasons -- just keep what you are eating in focus. I too am weighing everyday, but am still on liquids -- only a week out. Just give yourself some time and you will continue to lose. Take care -- Stephanie
