that was me

Pain is definitely subjective. I remember I went out for the day with friends a week after surgery and i came home in immense pain...i was so scared. now 6 weeks later i am pain free...just go at your own pace. Eventually it'll subside. And take your meds if need be.

good advice...

Thanks so much! I think it's because I felt like it was too soon to fall off the wagon. But I won't dwell on it. Treats are a part of life. It's just about balance, which is where so many of us have had trouble before.

so true

yes Candace! failure is not an option!

Well i just finished week one of a stall...i didnt gain cannolis and all lol But I hope it's over soon

ditto

Thanks guys. Back to the regularly scheduled program. I wont be around cannoli's and cupcakes every day. Thanks guys for keeping me accountable.

cant wait to find out

Thanks so much for the kind words.....last nite was a little scary.....i so dont want to fail...ughhh but I will get back on the wagon!! I will not fail!

I've been doing so well...and here I am in the midst of a stall...hitting six weeks and i CRUMBLED Another baby shower yesterday....and food and Desserts galore then I saw it CANNOLIS ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....i had 4 and a mini cupcake i know i was well over my 1000 cals help

wow that makes sense!

possibly...i had surgery on the Monday and my period came a whole week early on that Thursday, three days later

i was very anti-rerouting my intestines, and the whole thing with the dumping, and malabsorption of nutrients

If you haven't thrown up is it safe to assume that you aren't overeating???

maybe a haircut I will see how my body reacts to the weight loss. i am mostly excited about the clothes and maybe my skin...microdermabrasion or something

I guess I have to learn the difference between snacking, and grazing.....lol

Funny u should post this today...but I am usually fine...today i got so nauseous after taking my vites...my bff suggested taking them at bedtime....i am gonna try that

Yeah we are lol I was losing my mind, so hopefully bumping up the calories will help.

So I spoke to my Nut and she thinks I am eating too little. I should be closer to 1000 cals...and she said I can incorporate Snacks....so here goes nothing....thanks guys You guys keep me sane

woohoo!
