Happy Surgery Anniversary Thicklin
 

I remember you from the hay day on the board.  Everyone has moved over to facebook, but we are still around.   I am happy to hear that you are doing well and still working your tool.

Topic: One Year Anniversary

On 05/03/12, I started my weight loss journey.  I have accomplished so much since them.  No more diabetes.  No more blood pressure medication.  I can wear knee high boots (and yes they do go over my not so big calves now).  I can wear some heels.  And short dresses.  Life is good. 

Of course there was some drama along the way.  Haters who thought I shouldn't have any surgery.  Haters who thou

gth I lost too much weight.  Family and friends who did not recognize me. 

I am proud of the fact that I am able to do things I have not been able to do before.  So no regrets. Just enjoying life and learning about the new me.

Taking it one day at a time.

Strawberri it is completely normal for your body to take a losing break this early out and even to put on a few pounds, but don't fear it is temporary and will go away and the weight will start to roll off, try to relax, enjoy your journey and stay off the scale for a little while.

Topic: 14 days in, I am worried!
i had my 1st post op doctor appointment yesterday and my doctor says I am doing well so I was really proud. I'm getting in my protein and my liquids just fine, but the scale has not moved in 3 days. As a matter of fact, I gained 2-3 pounds. I know its early in my journey, but I don't understand how I can gain weight when I am still on clear and full liquids only. Could someone please share with me how they maximised their weight loss and if this is normal? Thanks in advance!
