Food Logs Discussion
Gonna chime in. I am an avid food logger. Haven't looked my weekly averages but plan to tonight. I do log everything in religiously.. Can afford a guilty pleasure every now and then in part because I am so active and because I log and know where I stand each and everyday. I encourage anyone not logging to start. I firmly believe it will make you a success. No more wondering why you are not losing. The food log won't lie as long as you record everything going in your mouth. For me the way I got so fat is I was a sneak eater... If no one saw me eat it... It didn't. My great mass was attributed by myself as poor metabolism and just damn bad luck... Ha who was I kidding. Had I logged back then I may have not gotten so fat!! Now 196 lbs lighter... There is no way I am going back to the old me. Log log log!!!

Severe bowel impaction = er visit.
I like the ones like a pearl. You only have to take one a day and they are tiny. I have always had this issue. When I take these I go everyday and its normal. Thank god honestly!!! I seriously thought I would have to go to the dr several times over the past year. Plus research I have done online shows positive studies with rny patients and a probiotic

Terrified of hair loss
My hair loss lasted from month 3 to 6. To most overweight women our hair was our shining glory... Only pretty thing about us ... So it was a freak out moment.. But it passes. Protein is the key.. I do take Biotin and I use the shampoo that has biotin and collagen in it.. It does pass and you shouldn't need a wig!!! date of surgery 02/21/13 surgery weight 340 lbs. current weight 146 lbs

Depression ?
It's natural to go thru some sort of depression.. You are still healing. Your energy levels will go up as the weeks go on and as your Protein levels increase. Believe it or not the damn endorphins do kick in.. Get out there and move your butt!! date of surgery 02/21/13 surgery weight 340 lbs. current weight 146 lbs

"Ah Ha" moment... aka "How the hell did I let myelf get to this"
So surreal coming on this thread today. I happened to be going thru old pictures of my nephews wedding and I kept telling myself... How did I let myself get so big!! My boys tell me know they can't remember me being that big!!! So the mind does forget but my soul never will forget how miserable I was!!! So thankful for my new lease on life!! date of surgery 02/21/13 surgery weight 340 lbs. current weight 146 lbs

Remembering when...
The thought of exercise was just that... A thought 2 biscuits with gravy bacon and eggs was a small Breakfast Rash between thighs from just walking Women were nice and men couldn't look me in the eye Now... One egg fills me up Running 2 miles a day Thighs don't touch Women barely speak to me an men talk to me like I'm thier long lost friend... Sad but true Just some ramblings for a Friday

9mos post op! Need some advice!
Sounds like you are doing everything right.. The last 10 are just the hardest to lose. Up the Protein.. Increase or decrease activity... Just shake up your whole week and see if you can't shake something loose date of surgery 02/21/13 surgery weight 340 lbs. current weight 146 lbs

Constipation is a MOTHER!
When I first started out I drank a tea called smooth move. It helped. Now I take a probiotic everyday and that does the trick date of surgery 02/21/13 surgery weight 340 lbs. current weight 146 lbs

It's hard because our emotions are all over the place in this whole process. Makes one realize how much we relied on food for comfort. Hugs your way and congrats on not making the wrong choices date of surgery 02/21/13 surgery weight 340 lbs. current weight 146 lbs
