I had WLS on Jan 13th and I am now 4.5 weeks out...and I think I am eating too much...I can eat a 4 oz yogert in a half an hour......it takes a long time but I can eat an whole egg? I am trying so hard to get my protein in with food because the shakes just dont agree with me an either does milk. I havent had any discomfort with the amount I eat? I have lost 31 lbs but nothing this last week and a half the scales have actually said that I gained a pound????? Could I have streched out my stomach already????This is so discouraging I went throu all of this and I just cant stop thinking that it is not going to work for me and all I am going to lose is this 31 lbs!!! Please help and give me some ideas Thank You

Kristen, you need to measure out your food. 2 onces is all that you should attempt to eat. Don't let yourself have the whole 4 ounces of yogurt. I don't know about the medical piece, (If you could be stretching your stomach) but it seems that if you keep asking it to hold more than it is supposed to, it probably will. I think you need to figure out a way to be certain that you are only eating 2 ounces. One egg is fine, I eat that and I am only 2 1/2 weeks out. But I stop with that. Exercise and water remember. Maybe you hit a small plateau, that happens, but it is your job to maintain what amount goes into you. Keep your chin up. You entered this journey for a reason, now go by the rules and you should be great! Dee
