Last week: 279 Today: 277.5 Goal for competition: 240

Wow, I sure got crucified for eating three pieces of Canadian bacon... I didn't even put a slice of pizza on my plate! I finished off my horrible slip of again, my three slices of Canadian bacon with a premier protein shake. I didnt mean to or intend to start a war or rant and if I could figure out a way to delete my original post I would. I know your heart is in the right place and you don't want us to fail, and I appreciate that but take it a little easier. I am not like the people you know who are making poor choices and please again, read all of what I say before you unfairly make a judgement on me or my character and lump me into a failure category. Again, I do appreciate your willingness to care enough to respond.

Well, I'm the one who posted about the pizza. I have been very strict on my diet since about 3 weeks pre op. I have not waivered from my doctor's orders EVER and I'm totally fine with that and happy to have the new life that I do. My mom had invited all of us over for monthly birthdays and had called me in advance to let me know that she had ordered me thin crust Canadian bacon pizza. I freaked out and immediately turned here for advice. I got to my mom's and could not bring myself to eat it. It did t feel right. I ate three pieces of Canadian bacon and that was it. Please don't judge a person or their food choices or their "how I got there" story until you read all of their posts. Totally not mad, I just wanted you to know where my heart was when I posted the question yesterday. BTW, I'm 31 days post op and have lost 32 pounds. I have a new appreciation for food and my life.

I weigh and measure everythig too. I kind of dont want to feel the restriction!

We weigh in today right?? Last week: 284.6 Today: 279 Goal for competition: 240

Well, I couldn't do it! I could not bring myself to put the crust in my mouth! I ate some toppings, and was fine... Wow, I have already come a long way with my willpower!

Question: I'm on regular foods now! Yay!! Only I'm a perfectionist and don't want to mess up. My parents are having everyone over for pizza tonight. Is it ok to have a piece of thin crust pizza or should I just have tr toppings?

Does anyone know where I can find them at Wal-Mart?

Weight before surgery: 308 Date of surgery: 7/31/12 Current weight: 284.6 Goal weight for competition: 240 Weigh in every Sat

First NSV 18 days post-op: NO SIDE BOOB!!

Question: I woke up this morning with a cold. Of course it's Saturday so the doctor's office is closed. Can I take cold meds the same as before surgery? Sorry, probably a lame question.

Do you find that you just get pissed at everyone who is eating?? It's not that I want what they have, but I just want to grab my husband's plate and throw it at his head while I'm sipping on the same protein shake that I have had every day for 11 days! Bring on the flipping eggs!

Ok, I'm in a pickle, I am 10 days post-op and I am on Clear liquids for another 5 days before I start puréed food. I am also a teacher going back to school. Here is my problem. HELP! So... My whole school is having lunch provided by our business partners on Monday... I don't want to go. There won't be anything there for me to "eat" and I don't want to be rude to the BP's or be the topic of convo... What should I do?

Can you do it on the app or do you have to do it on the site?

Dont get annoyed, but what's a ticker?

I just saw a commercial yesterday about Gatorade having a protein drink... It was called Reboost or something like that. Does anyone know anything about that or tried it?

I CAN'T WAIT TO POOP TO GET RID OF THIS DARN GAS!! LOL!

I still can't see the threads I'm participating in.

I'm on day 3. My tummy is still gurgling so bad it's hard to do anything. Bleh!

Ok, I'm 2 days post as well and I don't have that full feeling at all! I think it's bc of all the gurgling... Advice?

Omg you guys! I am on day 2 post op and the gurgling and nauseated feeling and almost "spasms" in my stomach when I swallow anything is driving me crazy! Please tell me this will pass soon!
