On your feet all day, of course you're tired! Remember that you just had surgery and take care of yourself! (That was completely said in a gentle tone if it reads differently, lol!)

We had a GREAT time. Read about our experience at Not Your Average Joe's here- http://www.thinnertimesforum.com/gen...e-average.html

I live about 2-2.5 hours from Ocala actually. I live on the beach side. I'm a 15 min drive to the Kennedy Space Center.

If my husband took my scale away from me, by the 3rd day, I'd be at Wally World buying a new one. LOL I haven't lost anything more either.....this sucks!

Happy Easter back at ya!

Don't feel bad about the "April Loosers". I'll be right there holding your hand. We are in the same boat and appears that we are going to the same shore too. LOL

As for the clothing.....again, I'm exactly the same as you. I put on a pair of PJ bottoms last night that were really tight across my butt before surgery and they were falling off last night. I also tried on several pairs of shorts....and they are just right on me now and I haven't been able to wear them for at least 2 yrs.

OK....that's it!! We are like sisters or something, cause that is the same for me.....1 pound lost yesterday, NOTHING today. LOL

When will this DRAMA end....I'm so sick of feeling like I've lost, seeing it in my clothes....but NOT on the scale.

While you are out purchasing a new scale that likes you.....get me one too. NO stall break! I'm super bummed now.

Exactly, I didn't want to stall this early. I know that we are the lower BMI, but come on!!

Yeah...we are in the same boat! I weighed myself today and I haven't lost a freaking thing. I'm going to continue drinking those nasty protein drinks and see if it won't work eventually. Also, we are in the 3-4 week stall....where we don't loose weight. But its hard seeing/hearing that others are still loosing weight....and we aren't. It's almost depressing.

I still have a Gtube in me though and I can't exercise yet. I cry when I cough, sneeze, walking, sit, stand (and stand-still at that)......anytime/anyway I move...I'm in crying pain. I'm not sleeping well either. I called the Dr. 2 days ago and talked to his right-hand man and he told me..."you are just going to have to deal with the pain until next week Friday". OMGish....I'm beginning to wonder, if they really believe me or not. I'm thinking that they are thinking that I'm lying to get it removed earlier.
