I did not experience a stall at that time, but I have seen many people talking about it happening to them. I would only suggest you might be able to step up your walking either by going faster or going a longer distance. This might help to shake things up a bit and get the weight loss going again.

Stalls at 2-3 weeks out are REALLY typical - just keep on doing what you are doing and the scale will start moving again eventually!

I have the LeanFit vanilla whey protein shake from Costco and it says that it can be mixed with water, milk, juice or soy.  I've never tried it with anything but milk.  Nooshin said that especially in the first few weeks it should be mixed with milk to add more protein, calcium and other stuff.  I also have the premier protein shakes from Costco and they're really good, just like chocolate milk.  If you have a popeye's around you then you may want to check there.  I've heard that they will give samples and will also allow you to return any unused powder if you don't like it.

I had the whooziness after showering for a few days.  I just assumed that it was because I was anemic before surgery and then loosing some blood during surgery.  I also thought that maybe I was a little dehydrated.  I made sure that get up slowly and make sure that I was getting enough fluids in in case it was some dehydration causing my BP to drop temporarily.

You guys are lucky to be off your diabetic meds.  I wasn't on any in hospital but my GP put me back on metformin 500mg twice daily once I got home.  I'm down to 1/2 tablet twice daily and I go for another A1C at the end of the month and if it's gone down or stayed the same that may be it for me!!!!  My last A1C was only 5.9, the best it's been in a few years!!!

I hope both of you feel better real soon.

Hi Cynthia:
I had my RNY on Oct. 3.  I still get the dizzy spells, whenever I sit upright, either from bed or from my recliner chair.  Dr. Sampath told me to sit up more slowly, and then to sit until the dizzy,s subside, before actually trying to stand.  That does seem to help, but I tend to forget about this step and then it takes over again, I guess I just want to get going to quickly.  About the blood sugars, I stopped all my insulin (5 injections a day) and all my Metformin (3 daily), on the night before surgery.  Dr. You said it would take a few weeks (longer for me because of my extra stay in hospital) for my body to adjust to the new stress placed upon it.  I may have to restart my pills within a few weeks, but no more insulin for me.  My numbers went quite low a couple of times in the hospital, but have been fairly high (for me) since coming home, even though my total carb intake is very low (just extra stress on body).  Do you take any insulin or pills for your blood sugar?  I you do, you may want to discontinue until your body adjusts to all the changes/stress that has taken place.  I will be seeing my endocrinologist (diabetes doctor) next week for monitoring my levels, and to find out what my next step may be, but Dr. Sampath is wanting me off all my meds, except the asthma meds, which is what I am doing right now, and I just hope it can continue like that.  Good Luck with your blood sugar levels, and hope you can get everything settled down real soon.
