STARTING WEIGHT 375LBS

i have that same issue. i went to my dietician and she said if you drink to soon after eating it just washes the food you just ate out of your sleeved stomach which makes you hungry again sooner. also on the flip side if you drink to much right before you eat then you are leaving little room in your stomach for food before you get full. always drink 1 hour before or 1 hour after eating. never at the same time or within minutes of each other.
hope that helps!

LATE POST!!

Don't feel too badly about this, I really think the majority of us need to get back into it!
We'll be here all together supporting each other and kicking butt if need be (some people don't like that but oh well, better honest then not) I've put on quite a bit of weight over the holidays and hey I'm human, life happens, but now i'm going to get back into it (I hope ) My only real plan is to stop with the snacking and get into that gym. . .I think that is going to be harder then dieting, I have to completely turn around with how I feel about the gym. . . but I will give it a good attempt. . my goal is to go every Tues, Thurs, and Friday for 30 - 45 minutes. . . good luck to all of you!
