very emotional lately
MOMW replied to weightlossmomma85's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Being emotional is all part of the process. It is very normal in the early stages. You whole system has just got turned around. It will take a few months before it settles down. -

grazing (good) alternatives
MOMW replied to Fiddleman's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was and still can be a grazer. What I do is plan my days food to incorporate my grazing tendency. I break down my meals so I eat about every 2 to 3 hours. I plan on two of these meals after supper as this is my worse time. This works for me. Good luck in finding what works for you. -

Sorry about your struggle. We all have them. Glad that you are taking control now. I eould suggest try eating like you did in the beginning and get your protein shake in. This should shock your body back. If you the gym, change your routine. If not get up and walk, outside at the mall or wherever, and climb somr stairs. It is all movement. Come to the boards for suppprt. I am in weight watchers and this is great for weekly support and accountability. Hope this helps. You are too important to waste this gift of surgery and better health.

I use 3 cheap weekly pill containers. One for morning one for afternoon and one for evening. I dish out all of them plus my meds one day a week. I kmow then what I have taken.

I do not use gas x myself but get up and move around as that should help.
-
I do the pictures but never thought about the silhouette. That would have been neat too.

I only do a 1/4 c. My dietitian only has us count protein. But I only do the quarter cup to save on the carbs.

I like the yoplait frozen greek yogurt. They have one with honey that is great. It has more protein than regular.

Consult Appointment tomorrow!
MOMW replied to JennyBeth's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Congrats on this next step. Keep strong. Your date will be here soon -
Don't beat yourself up. You are human and this will happen. I think sometimes when such a big goal is right in front us, we subconsciously think we don't deserve it and are scared. So, we resort back to our OLD way of life. Good luck. Just go back to basics, come here and look at your success. You DO deserve it and have earned it.

When does hair stop falling out!
MOMW replied to sarahzamudio1091's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
One key to help slow the hair loss is to get you protein in. -
Measuring Surgery Success
MOMW replied to AlbanyDan's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I take my measurements too. Sometimes as the scale slows the inches go down. Clothing size I use some but it only is a good measure if you use the same style and from the same store.
