yay! i too have missed salad and have stayed away from "Greens" because i am afraid of them! lol

i think that is true, what you say about it being a tool. it is so very hard, this journey. i mean, we have been eating and behaving this way for years and now our sleeves are making us accountable. i am 7 weeks post op and have been stuck at a 26# stall for almost 3 of those weeks. granted, my clothing is fitting differently, but the scale is JUST NOT MOVING!

i think that this site is a great way to help yourself remain accountable. also, i just joined myfitnesspal so that i can log what i eat. i too am able to pretty much eat whatever i want as long as it is not too much. i wonder, what is wrong with me. why am i still eating this CRAP. then the guilt comes into play. i have realized just in the past two days that i need to really pay attention to what i am putting into my mouth, my activity level and what i am feeling throughout the day. otherwise, i just backslide!

good luck to you!! and thanks for posting, it helps to know that others have the same struggles!

it is so hard not to weigh everyday! i want to know, darnit!!! i am just over 6 weeks post op and have been stuck at a #26 loss. i am not sure what to do. I think maybe i am not getting enough calories in and i will start drinking more protein shakes. thank you for telling your story, it helps to know that others are feeling and going through the same things...

a little bit of 50 shades of grey there! lol

or speculation thereof.... lol

same feeling is happening here! it is more of discomfort than pain, but also painful if that makes sense.

I felt the same way. i gained right after surgery. then lost 19# and had a stall for a WEEK! then lost 4 more pounds and am now at a stall again. smh.
