You know, I really thought this was a great place for advise, obviously, there are a lot of "perfect" post op people who don't require any advise! how dare you mock us! I myself seen a question someonr asked and answered it honestly and am getting laughed at? This obviously isn't the place for me. I'm really embarrassed for you.

Lol, I'm guilty of licking cheese puffs when I was a week out, but, got over the craving and now I'm almost 6 weeks out , what I do snack on are Gerber Graduates cheese puffs! They are so low in calories and totally disenigrate in your mouth! My dr said they are perfect to snack on when craving carbs, just don't over do it! Hope this helps!

I felt regret on day 3, I cried to my husband that I was sorry I did this, cause I wanted to eat, he hugged me and gave me a kiss and ended up not eating lunch that day cause he felt sorry for me! But that feeling left as fast as it came and I'm almost 6 weeks post op and haven't looked back at all! I've lost 22 lbs and 23 1/2 inches, it's awesome to wake up every morning knowing your outfit you wore in the past is now almost too big! You will see, hang in there, you will get past this feeling of regret before you know it!

You look terrific!!!!

Awesome!! You look amazing!

I never quit either, my pulmonary test and chest X-ray were great, my surgeon never said anything about quitting. I healed great, not one problem at all, I have tryed to quit 6 times in my life, quit for 6 years Started back up. Worse thing I could have ever did,thanks to my ex-husband:(!

I've been stalled for almost 2 weeks! Today was 5 weeks since my surgery and it's really starting to make me think I'm doing something wrong! But I'm not as I log everything I put in my mouth :/ I will be patient as all the veterans say to be and just wait for something to happen I guess???

Here is a before and after face pic ? Liking the difference so far! Let's see yours'

Thanks for the vote of confidence , down 2 1/2 lbs this morning! I'll take it!

Thank you , yes I did measure myself . As of Saturday I loss a total of 21 1/2 inches, which makes my clothes just loose, but guess what? Down 2 1/2 lbs. this morning! that makes me feel a little better! Thanks again friends!

Wow! Everyone is doing great! Wish I was:( only 18 down, it will be 5 weeks on Friday , wish I knew what im doing wrong, following everything to the "t"! Maybe I'll see a difference next week? Sigh....

Super job' I could only wish!

You look awesome!!!

I have gained and loost the same 2 lbs for 8 days now! Doing everything right and no loss? I'm depressed as I can't seem to loose any more than the 18 lbs I lost by the end of 3rd week! I work 50 hrs a week and only had time for 35 minutes of exercise in the last 5 days! I am getting 70 to 80 grams of protein and carbs are at 40 grams for the day! I'm at a loss with what to do too? Smh...

Last August my sugar level was 210! Type 2, this scared me! I was put on janumet, day of surgery, 7/17/12 it was 154, 3 weeks after surgery, 95!!! No more pills! Also my cholesterol, high blood pressure pills are a thing of the past, didn't expect it to be so short of time though, I'm very very happy!

My surgery was July 17th, lost 18lbs, haven't lost anymore since last Sunday!! Actually I gained back a lb!! I am getting all of my protein and liquid and between 600 to 700 calories, I see my surgeon on Wednesday, hope to get some advise.

After 2 weeks post op, I went to my md, blood pressure was normal (I didn't take any pills for two weeks after surgery) so that made me happy, he said stop blood pressure mess, then had blood work results 3 days later he called me and said sugar and chesterol levels are perfect! No mess right now for anything! This was amazing to me! So happy...good luck
