I love myfitness pal! It helps so much to stay on track.

I flucuate on my grams of carbs daily but stay under 30 grams. Protien 40-90, if i do Protein drink I can get more protein in. Usually 300-600 calories daily. Currently due to my feet I cant exercise like I should. Hope this helps.

Sorry my finger slipped & hit send lol I mix things up w my food by adding a little spinach dip to my tuna. Marinating my meat, melting cheese on it. ( using weight watchers or 50-75% reduced fat cheese), grilling/cooking veggies w my food. I still cant eat a lot of stuff tht others can eat for some reason but i do very good w meats, so far any kind of meat. eggs & bacon (turkey bacon or theres center cut bacon fron oscar meyer. Not something I wld do daily but every once in awhile to chng things up.) Turkey breast lunch meat, rolled up w cheese in it.

I live in Texas & its about a 6-7 hour drive. So we drove in. Its real close to Del Rio so we stayed 1 night there & drove in for surgery.

Please keep us updated on how things go. Very interested!

I had my surgery in Acuna, Mexico. After crossing the border the hospital is just a few blocks. My doctor had performed SURGERY on my cousin who also had no complications & has done very well. He knows of others tht used same doctor w no complications. Its a private hosp owned by some doctors. My doctors name was Dr. Luis Alberto Cruz Gandara, he went by Dr. cruz. There is a plastic surgeon that is a doctor in this hosp. (sry I cant think of his name) he said he ws very good. If you're interest I can give you his number & you can tell him I recomended. Just let me know.

Are you 6 weeks out? If so the honey moon is not over, maybe a stall. Do you knw wht your calorie, fat, carb, & Protein is daily? I use myfitness app to input mine daily. It helps a lot. Depending on what you ate eating & how much maybe switching things up from day to day. Like more for a few days then less, more carbs for a few days then switch it up w calories & fat. I hv been a slower user but I am losing & in inches also. I try to switch things up thru the week & sometimes it varies a lot. This is gross but constipation can also put you in a stall, so making yourself go at least a few times a week helps a lot.

Yeah for your husband for taking you. Its great that they are doing something & not sending you home yet. Thank you so much for keeping us updated & please continue.

Just my opion but have you thought of rotating every few days your calorie intake, fat, carbs, & protein instead of it maintaning close to the same daily? Just a thought.

Awesome post! Loved it!

My surgery was July 16th & I still cant do water. I dont do well w liquids period...as in I cant get much dowm me. Lemon lime gatorade wrks the best so far & since the past weekend, i hv add water to my gatorade & added crystal light to it. Tastes great & hopefully it will continue to wrk so I can get on "just" crystal light. I hv tried it but so far I cant. But if you havent tried crystal light maybe give it a shot. Everyones body is diff, you may be able to do it. Your body is going through a shock w this surgery & sometimes it can throw you into an emotional world wind...try to stay positive & think of wht you will look like in the months to come. You can do this.

Lol i ate a few slices today & then wondered

Surgery was July 16th, you thk kiwi is ok to eat? Due to the little seeds in them?

Please keep us updated. Will be praying for you.

I sure hope you start to feel better. I wld go to the doctor today & see what he says. I also wanted to ask how old & how much did your nephew weigh? The reason Im asking is because I wasnt allowed to pick up/tug/pull for 6weeks after surgery.

For me the nausea & vomiting came quickly & left quickly. Mine was from eating too fast after surgery. I was fine after I vomited. I hv always been a fast eater so tht ws something hard for me to get used too. Everyone experiences things diff after surgery. Im not a doctor but it does sound like it ws your blood pressure.

Thank you! The softners make ne nauseated but i take them cause i hv too.
