  1. welcome to the group k9qt. glad you are doing better mdm imgine having those right out of surgery. ive been chewing them twice a day since surgury im use to them now. had 3 btls on my last one now. my nut told me they were the best for me so i will order more. i started by taking little bites at a time now i can pop the whole thing in my mouth lol
  2. lolly explain how you eat so little and burn up so much and still lose. squisha ok. i was concerned that i wouldnt lose anymore wieght eating under 900 cal but you are living proof you can lose
  3. momof i just went through that. i had stomach flu like symptoms aka dumping. my eating wasnt back to normal till today. i had no appetite i could barely get anything in. my nut said i went through something violent with my new tummy and it takes a while to be ok. you will be fine. it took me 11 days before i was back to normal. by smart water for the electrolytes. i lost 5lbs of water that night so give your body time try a full liquid diet for a day and slowly add soft foods thats what i did. i really had no appetite for food for 11 days. its back in full effect now. lol ready its called a yeager meister i dont know how to spell it. it was my first time having it. i had the best sandwich today. i went to trader joes my fave spot. i purchased whole wheat hamburger bun, breaded chicken breast, light sliced cheese lettuce and tomato. omfg it was so good. 1/2 bun 1 breaded chicken brest it was small 1/2 light chedder chesse slice 2 slices of tomatos 1 lettuce leaf under 300 cal 14 grams of protein less than 20 grams of carbs taste just like a wendys chicken sandwich

  8. man. momof thats how i felt thanksgivng night i dont think it was the flu if it was what timing that was eating that rich food and that uggggggggggg. my tummy is still shaky after that episode.
  9. my nut told me it could cause ulcers
  10. as for protien intake. are you logging your food somewhere, believe it or not a lot of food have protien in it you would be surprised. i also have a problem with getting in my cals im suppose to do 1200 i get 800-900 a day. but if you are jogging you really need more cals and protien. do you have a nut to talk to? i eat until i feel full or i feel bubbles or that feeling in the top of my tummy. i am almost 3 months out and lost 35lbs since surgery and i started lifting weights for my arms also they are horrible. lol reeally talk to a nut about your cals and as far as good food high in cal thats hard to find it either has to many carbs or fat.
  11. ok i ate. at my job for lunch we had chlie relleno chicken tamales i ate half of each and enjoyed it i love mexican food. maybe i will eat that everyday lol. and by the time my lunch time came around i was hungry i normally eat every 2-3 hrs but i went to the 4th hour
  12. shay the reason is, is that i lost my appeite and i dont like the taste anymore. ascooke thank you sweetie milb i dont eat much i eat under 800 cals a day. i just dont have the desire anymore labelle im not concerned about not being able to eat as much, i just dont have desire at all bigbooty i feel you on that. its worse when you just dont want to eat peggysue i agree i have decided to order protien supplements like nector that i can add to my Water and drink it all day making sure i get my Protein in. and when i feel that feeling of eating than i will eat. thanks you guys for being here its nice to come to a place to chat with like minded folks

  17. ready sounds like broncitis i have that it is awful feel better soon mdm get back on that horse girl green i need to start excersise myself. had my first drink last night. no effects at all had a yeager miester. the past few days ive felt heavy and bloated. i think im on my monthly, yes i think, because i had a hysterectomy but have my ovary and cervix i still go through the hormonal part but i just dont know if i am having a period because i dont flow. the scale move about .04lbs we will see wed on my wiegh in day. i go for my second check up monday and meet with my nut excited because i get to see my primary dr who hasnt seen me since the day of my surgery. i will let you guys know
  18. last night i had so much fun at a co workers farewell party. a co worker got me a yeager miester, never had it but he made me down it and guess what i had no effects he wanted to get me anoter i was like noooooooooooooooooo im cool dont want to push it. i didnt get sick or anything danced for hours on end.
  19. kristi my nut said a little over 100 is safe for losing weight i dont get to 100 sometimes im under 80 it really depends on what i eat that day
  20. yea i am pear shaped and always had the lower body problem. i have this work skirt that i wear and its now loose around my waist but still tight on my hips. there is is site that cater to pear shape with jeans best fit i ever had no gap a the waist either i just cant think of the name right now.
  21. i was sleeved 9/12/12 like mgsmith. i have lost 19lbs prior to surgery and 35lbs post surgery total of 54lbs. my NSV is my work uniform was way to big for me, my daughter gave me some cute jeans that at first i couldnt fit now i rock them. my feet are much smaller which means i can wear my smaller shoes. my face is way thin and younger looking i love it, and ppl tell me how good i look almost everyday. i get down because i see ppl that had surgery around the same time as me and they have lost way more. but my nut said i am on target, they expect 30lbs lost in 3 months i did that in 2 months. i dont eat bad at all i eat all good healthy foods ive had maybe 1.5 cookie at work since surgery. i dont crave sweets anymore and when i do eat them it taste like sugar to me. i get all my protien through food my carbs are under 100grams a day, my only problem is i cant get enough calories in thats the hard part. the down side is i go through periods of naseau for days and then i feel better after a few days. i can only eat 2 -3 bites of dense foods. soft foods i can get in with no problem (exp) cottege cheese yogarts, cheese chili. but whole meats like chicken i get really full. some days i feel like im not going to lose all of the wieght but i guess thats a normal feeling, trying not to feel like im on a diet. trying to just be normal.
  22. yea what getting said. get well girlfriend
