    Thank you for your message, Yes unfortunately I am still experiencing a solid weight stall.. no loss no gain... Nothing better as of yet, but I am considering going back to Mexico for a tummy tuck etc to maybe help me along.
  2. dreaming, Its been a long road. I have 20 lbs left to lose. After 4 yrs, I have learned that I can eat more, which is not always good...... I did the oatmeal test, to see how big the sleeve got. That's when you make oatmeal and measure it. Eat 1/4 cup at a time. see how much you can fit. I was up to 1 1/4 cups.
    I didn't think that could happen,,,, I went back to shakes. I bought so many shakes, you wouldn't believe it.
    Finally, I found one that tastes really good and is packed with protein and vitamins. NO GAS, NO BLOATING. I started taking it 30 days ago. I am down 10 lbs so far. Almost to my goal.....
    Now it is FREE for me. Contact me for details. azparksb@gmail.com or 520-331-3878
    Everyone should hear about these shakes. Barb

    Hey good luck with ur surgery today! Don't worry u'll be fine & trust me, it's sooooooooo worth it in the end here's to a new healthier you! Cheers!
  4. Hi Dreaming, I have lost 54 lbs. But never got to the goal. I still have 22 lbs left to go. As time went on, eating the wrong things, just got easier. Though, I can't eat much of it, I still can eat it.
    I am working on eating more veggies and I am taking shakes 2 times a day for now.
    I have tried TONS of shakes, lots of money and I hated how they tasted and how gassy they made me.
    I can't tell you how much money I have spent on finding the right shake. But alas, I finally did.
    My friend asked me to try one and it's AWESOME. I actually look forward to drinking it. If you would like, I can give you the info. just ask. I can graze though food meaning. I know if I wait, I can eat more.
    I have lots of friends that have had WLS. One of them told me about the oatmeal factor. Have you heard of it? You make oatmeal, measure it out in 1/2 cups and eat as much as you can until you are full. this will give you a gage on how much your stomach has stretched. UGGGH. After surgery, I could'nt even eat one scrambled egg. As to about a month ago, I can eat 1= 1 1/2 cups at a time.

    Since I started taking 2 shakes a day (it's been 3 weeks) I cannot eat as much! yeah! I think that my stomach is adjusting to less food. ANd I Lost 10 lbs! YEAHHHHH
    I still have to remind myself to Drink WATER. And I have been really bad about vitamins.....Until now.
    Let me know how your doing. How long has it been for you?
