Topic: RE: Dr Herron???
You came up in my recent stories..
You'll be fine- A good friend of mine was sleeved around the same time as me by him and is doing well. Just find multi-vites that u can tolerate now- chewable arent always the best tasting after surgery . You'll do great just fight the urge to give into the pain and walk your ass off. Best wishes

Thank you Donna and Laura!
It's getting closer and seems more real now, since all my appointments are out of the way.

What Deb said....

The body needs to "catch up" to the weight loss....

Look at it like a teeter-totter....with pounds on one side, inches on the other....

As you lose pounds, you won't lose inches....as the pounds slow down/stall, you lose inches...then you start losing pounds and (mostly) stop losing inches...it goes back and forth....

It's the best visual (May not be 100% accurate for EVERYONE), but it shows the point.

1.  It will stop
2. Are you getting all your vitamins in?  If so, are they designed for WLS?  Due to mal-absorbtion, "normal" vitamins may not get into your system.
3.  If you are tremendously concerned, call your surgeon's office. 
4.  Ask at your sugeon's support group of anyone have similar experience 4 months out....
