Hi,

I lost like that from month 5 until now.

Nothing I did changed it so I just accepted it and stopped worrying about the scale.

Good luck to you!

Bodybugg is fantastic!

Ugg,and I went straight into menopause about 6 weeks after sleeve.Funny tha I never noticed the issues around hormones when I did my 2 years of research on the sleeve.But then,I suppose we often just...

WHO says 23-33%.But for myself at the higher end I still have a lot of excess bodyfat.Will go down to 25%.Why not?

Remember,we are talking losing 100% excess bodyfat.I will go and check but I think women should have round about 21-25% bodyfat to be normal.Men is usually lower.

O,go for 100%.Why not?The dr's consider it a success if we lose 75% but all my friends got to BMI of 25 or less.

I am 5'8 and wear a size 12 now at 168. I want to go down one more size then I am...

Hi

And boy,for the next week all shops are open 24 hours a day here in lalaland O,I mean Dubai..lol. So we can really shop till we drop! Might try it just once!

O,and blow that spirometer every hour.That really helped a huge amount with the chest tightness.

Hi,and when we say small sips,we mean small sips.For the first week I literally took 5ml sips at a time.I also didnt swallow the sip all at once I let it spread through my mouth a tricle a little at...

Tonight I had a little lapse in judgement.For the first time since surgery I ate what looked like a real meal.

Hi

104 pounds down so far.29 to go!

Best thing that ever happened to me since my band nightmare began!

Good luck

Maybe its just time to pin your surgeon down and ask him directly.Difficult I know but we are often to "soft" when it comes to dr's.Its your right to know what is going on.

Good luck and hope you...

I am praying for you and hope you get better quickly!

Did they check you for a leak?

Ok,45 min to eat 2 TBS of cottage cheese? Is that even possible?

Look,just eat slowly.But remember it is a meal.Then,why are you only getting this little calories and protein?Sip a protein shake...

I think your soft stop is when you feel any change in your nose (it STARTS feeling stuffy) That is when you should stop eating. You are so lucky to have a soft stop.Not everyone has that and I think...

Meats,fish and chicken...this is the solid proteins you need.With a protein shake per day if you cannot so enough of the meat fish and chicken.

Then,refined carbs and too much carbs definitely...

All 4 of us have had hairloss....a...
