Topic: The dreaded stall

well I'm 3 1/2 weeks out and I've hit the dreaded stall just as I'm going back to work on Monday and already concerned about how I'm going to get food organized for the week, and just sleep I mean I went into work yesterday and was home by 4pm and was passing out dead tired at 8:30 so tired.

tomorrow is my birthday and today is my husbands, I arranged a thing tonight at our local pub for his birthday luckily one of their specials this week is a puréed basil tomato soup, guess what I'm having!! I am a little concerned as other than my two close friends none of my other friends know and they're going to question where I've been.

But my biggest wish as I blow out the candles on my invisible cake would be for the scale to move next Saturday for weigh in day. 

Thats all have a great weekend everyone!

Jill

That sucks Sam but it will all be worth it in the end.

Absolutely loving pinterest for the recipes too! My upper GI is moved to May 11 at the Campbell River hospital. Don't even get me started on how upset I was - they left a message on my home phone and not my cell at 4:20 pm the day before! Arrangements were already in motion for me going as its a 3 hour drive and my appointment was at 8:20 ..... I was not only furious but absolutely devastated.  Christina helped me through it - she said my surgery date won't be affected. Still looking at June or possibly even end of May.

Haha I was thinking the same thing. It's been a while. I'm on bariatricpal as well so it's nice to read what's going on there but the lower mainland forum on that site is dead. I've been reading all the horror stories about hair loss and so forth, my hair is already thin and I don't want to picture myself bald ??

has anyone experienced hair loss a few months after surgery? I'm keeping up with vitamins and biotin until I can't take them anymore. I had my pre-op form filled out today, can't believe April is coming to an end and my surgery month is upon me. 

They have great recipes on Pinterest, my muffin tins will get lots of use. I am so ready for this!! I hope everyone is doing well ?

I was thinking that too! And wondering how your upper GI X-ray went? Do you have a date yet? I've crocheted a baby blanket 10 dish clothes and half a regular blanket I've done my taxes and watched 37 episodes of castle cleared out my PVR as well as watched 3 series on Netflix, I really need to get back to work and glad I'm going back on Friday to get me out of this house! Lol! 

Canadian tire had a glass scale on for 11.99 and I went out and got it on Friday since then I've been weighing myself every day and a couple of days ago I had to stop so now it's just Saturday's I was getting too focused on the numbers.

im also interesting recipes like a crazy person for when I can eat real food hopefully after my surgeons appt next week! One month!! Woohoo!
