Thanks for the support. I'm looking forward to "onederland" - haven't been there since high school. Unfortunately, due to a medication I'm taking I have to weigh myself everyday to see if I'm retaining fluid so that has been a bit discouraging during this stall. However, I've read enough to know that this isn't unusual so I'm refusing to let it get to me - especially since I can see that my butt is smaller and that I actually have a neck! And some of my pants are too big to wear now so I'll just keep a positive attitude until the scale starts moving again. And I'll keep reading for more helpful tips.

So I did indeed survive day one of the 5DPT! I definitely had a carb-withdrawal headache, but it was gone after a nap. My daily liquids consisted of Premier protein shakes, sugar free jello, sugar free pudding, sugar free popsicle, chicken noodle soup (broth only), and one tangerine as my 5DPT instructions said this would help with the carb headache. I lost exactly one pound so far so things are going in the right direction Thanks for the encouragement to do this @Nana Trish @cinwa !

TYVM Cinwa! I am assuming it is the carb withdrawal that is causing me to be fighting this headache. Going to grab a nap and see if that helps. Thanks again <3

Welcome to Thinner Times harrahgirl and congratulations on your up-and-coming birthday. You must be pleased with your 30lb loss.

Hi there! I've been lurking in this forum for about a month. I'm about to turn 62 (next week in fact) and had gastric bypass surgery January 29th. Since then I've dropped 30 pounds and have been on a "stall" for about a week. I've found a lot of helpful info on the forums (including finding out that a stall this early in the game is not unusual) so I figured it was time for me to go public (plus I'm not a naturally silent person anyway). I'll keep on reading as I can definitely use all the helpful tips I can get!

Start your engines, Ready, Set..GOOOOOOOO! Starting the 5DPT today lol. I weighed in at 159 again this morning. The first two days of liquids will concentrate on Premier Protein at meal times, Panera broth (only) from their chicken noodle soup (yum!), sugar free jello and/or sugar free popsicles. Lots of water. And ofc my daily vitamins, D3 and calcium citrate. I'm a little nervous but it feels good to know I can come here to get encouragement also. So excited for you Trish about 6 pounds! That is AWESOME! Well done my friend <3

You will find many posts on having a gastric bypass to treat weight regain by gastric sleeve patients in the Weight Loss Surgery Revisions board here at TTF: https://www.thinnertimesforum.com/forum/139-weight-loss-surgery-revisions/ Note that many revisions are not due to weight regain, but instead to treat GERD which is a fairly common side effect of the gastric sleeve. We are here to support you.

I am 62 yo and had a successful gastric sleeve surgery in 2014. Through asthma and joint issues, I gained 50 lbs that resulted in uncontrollable hypertension. Although I was forced to have surgery to avoid having a stroke, I was ecstatic with the results (I went from 231 to 140 lbs). Not only did my blood pressure go down, I was to stop taking the medication altogether. Thus, in 2017, I began having pain in my left hand, insisted on carpal tunnel surgery even though the surgeon disagreed. Since I worked in technology, I needed the problem resolved before a big project. A month after the surgery, the pain continued and extended up my arm to my neck over the next few months. Since I had cervical fusion surgery in 2013, I began to think that it was the cause of the pain. By September of 2018, the pain was unbearable. I was unable to type with my left hand and taking Norco for the pain which made it difficult to work. In October of 2018, one of my physicians stated that if I did not stop working, I would lose the use of my hands. As a result, I decided to register for short- term disability to rest my hands hoping they would be better if I took a break from typing. To date, I have not returned to work. As time went on, the pain increased in severity, and I was unable to do little around the house. Since leaving work, I have gained 55 lbs and am not only back on hypertension medication, my physician is suggesting gastric bypass surgery, which I am not happy about. If there is anyone out there who have had gastric sleeve surgery then later gastric bypass surgery, I would like to hear from you.

Congratulations Trish - I'm proud of you.

I’ll be here to cheer you on, my friend! Today is day 5 for me, and I’m down 6 pounds since last Saturday! I had gotten up to 159, and this morning I was 153 At least I’m back in the “normal” BMI range. And all of the carb cravings are gone! Head hunger is still a bear, but I think that’s something I’m always gonna have to deal with. The scary part is...I had gotten to the point where I couldn’t tell the difference between real hunger and head hunger anymore. Kind of like before surgery. That’s part of why this pouch test is so good for me If you stay busy, the 5 days will fly by! I’m here for you ❤️

Still in procrastinating mode, but I need to weigh on Saturday morning to see exactly where I am at, and then proceed. I will let you know <3 TY for the encouragement

You can do this.. I am so glad spring has sprung early here.. get outside, enjoy the fresh air; if you’re not inside you aren’t near food. And being outside takes your mind off eating.. I swear the first outing after this is over is an all day leisurely shopping trip with lunch out..we live in the country so walking is good. Even our elderly neighbors get out.

Wow, just incredible!! I see a huge difference between the before and after! Keep up the great work!! You’re doing fantastic!

I’m glad things there aren’t as bad as they are here in NY. It’s pretty freaking scary!! My 72 year old mother is not taking this as seriously as she should be...she’s letting people in her house that don’t live there, taking her dog to the groomer (one of the few that is still open) and going up to the nursing home to look at my grandmother through the window in her room, as they have been on lockdown for at least 2 weeks now. She’s bringing snacks for my grandmother, handing them to one of the aids, and that aid turns around and gives outside packages to my grandmother. One person in her nursing home has already died from this awful virus. But she refuses to listen, and I’m done trying. I’m staying in, period. Except for the occasional trip out to my back yard I wish they would shut the country down too...this is spreading way too fast, now we have people from NYC (I live upstate) coming up here to their summer homes, and bringing more infection with them. A huge number of cases are in the city, but we have had several cases in my town, and more one county over. So it all just sucks! WOW...10,000 steps? All at once? That is incredible!! When I was walking last summer, I would reach about 8,000 on average per day, but I made it over 10,000 a few times. Not every day though!! But my knees were still healing, so I have hopes that once this virus is gone, I will be able to reach that goal too. That’s partially why I started using the bike. I want my knees to be ready when I CAN get out and walk! When I said I have my food delivered, I meant a grocery delivery service. I’m lucky enough to have a grocery store about 5 minutes from my house. They deliver everything we order if it’s in stock. It’s been tough getting our hands on ground beef (for chili) so I used a baked pork loin, chopped that up, and made the chili with that. It was pretty good! I’m sorry you’re having so much trouble eating because of the stress...I have the opposite problem. When I’m this stressed, I eat more than I should. But I guess protein shakes and fruit aren’t the worst things in the world, but probably not enough calories if that’s all you’re eating. And as far as hubby being home starting tomorrow...I think a lot of people are experiencing what you talked about, lol. I’ve really enjoyed spending time with my hubby. I actually think we needed this more than either of us realized. But we’ve only been married 25 years, not 38...we shall see if I feel the same way then! Lolol
