there are days when I can eat just fine and other days no matter what i put n my mouth i get sick!! I had my surgery 3/22/12 how long does this last? My doctor put me on medication to try to help and some days it does put not all the time. I stop loosing weight I only lost 50 pounds since the surgery nothing since thin. I don't understand I only eat most of the time once a day if I am lucky twice. The weight should be falling off of me i am not eat a dag on thing! I don't mean to be so negitative but right now I am very frustrated!
You've lost FIFTY lbs!! That's amazing!! I've just lost that and I had my surgery longer ago than you did..you should be proud.
I had a plateau and got SO frustrated; I asked my nut/dr what was happening, why wasn't I losing faster and they told me that my body was a bit stressed. Bodies aren't USED to losing 50 lbs that fast! You gotta give your body time to readjust, and the weight will start coming off.
Also, even when I wasn't losing lbs, I actually did lose some inches. Check how your clothes are fitting too!
Good luck
