I’m sorry you’re having a tough time right now, but it WILL pass.
By three months out, you’ll be back to normal and mostly healed. It is NOT the easy way out. You have to respect your new tool...
I’m almost 6 months post op, and today I finally arrived at ONEDERLAND!!! I’m so excited, I can’t believe it! The scale read 199.3. This is the first time in 21 years that I’ve been under 200! ...
Hi, I still get a horrid squeezing feeling in my chest if I eat dry meat or chicken, and I’m almost 6 months out. It could be bites that are too big, or eating too fast. I sometimes do both of...
So proud of you Lori! You’re so happy, I love it!
I was told by many that my feelings of hunger were just acid in my gut. I tried EVERY anti gas, antacid, and PPI, and nothing worked. I was only two months out, so how could I possibly have hunger?...
I just say, "thanks, I'm really trying." I was pretty free with telling people I was having WLS, so a lot of people know. But for those who don't know, I just say thanks, and that I changed my way...
Like everyone said in the above replies, PLEASE check in with your medical professionals first to make sure your meds are working for you. That could very well be the basis of your problem.

In my humble opinion, you're not too old at all. I'm almost 60, and I had my surgery in April of 2017. It's the best decision I've ever made, I just wish I did it many years sooner. I, too, have...
I'm soooooo happy for you Lori! You look absolutely amazing!!!
Oh my gosh! Yippee! I'm so happy for you! You're an inspiration, and I wish you all the best! I'm sure you will attain your goal soon. Congratulations!
Hi Tom! Thank you! I think you're right about introducing a higher carb content regularly. I think it sort of jump starts you into weight loss land, and keeps things a little mixed up so your body...
Thank you Ann2! Thanks for the encouraging words!
Awesome! I'm really happy for you! I need to take and post pictures, too, like you did. We have to follow the course our bodies want to take, right? I sure I'll probably stall again, but...
Hi guys!
I'm happy to report I FINALLY broke my three week stall! I went back to very low carb eating (less than 20 grams per day) and increased my protein to 90 to 100 grams a day, and it is...
Congratulations! I'm so happy for you! It's been 20 years since I was in onederland, but now I'm only 4 pounds away! I can't wait to be where you are, now. Keep it up. Cheers, Patti
Lisa, you look amazing! I know you went through many trials, but the proof is in the pictures. Here's to wishing you continued success. Cheers, Patti
Thanks RehabNurse and Ann2! Today I've tracked all my food on MFP, and I've already consumed over 70 grams of protein! I eat EXACTLY the same way every day, except for dinner, because I'm a...
Hi guys! It's been awhile since I've posted, but I just had to share what I'm going through right now, and seek some advice from all you experienced sleevers.
My surgery was April 19, 2017, and...
I'm so proud of you Lori! It's like being out of food prison, right?
Oh, I'm almost four months post op, and I STILL have a hard time eating slowly enough. When I eat too quickly, I get a horrible pain in my chest that can last up to an hour. The key is to not get...
Good for you Lori! I'm so proud of you for telling it like it is!
Lori, you look so great! Here's hoping your stall ends as soon as possible!
Hi all, I too have hypothyroidism, caused by lifelong thyroid disease and eventually thyroid cancer. I had my entire thyroid removed, along with all the lymph nodes on the right side of my neck a...
Congratulations on your phenomenal weight loss and super fitness! You're an inspiration to me!
