:/ This "diet" isn't working.....I feel like I never know what to eat...I don't know if I'm doing this right or wrong :/

Hi everyone! I'm Almost 4 weeks post-op and I'm not sure how many calories I'm supposed to be eating per day to lose weight..... As far as working out, I'm walking 3 days a week and doing cross-fit (what I can handle only) and I start bike riding my niece to school next week.... Thanks!

Thank you

i gained weight 4lbs since moving to soft foods.... I know I've been eating crap.... I'm basically eating protein and starches.... I need help with this.... I need to get back on track but I never know what to eat :/ I need a set meal plan! Can anyone help?

tuna and string cheese.... I've been doing it on the run... I'm also 17 dpo

spline possibly.... My doctor said it would hurt for a few weeks....

Congrats on being free! a man who doesn't support you, doesn't deserve you

My head hunger was terrible.... I couldn't help myself during liquids.... I needed spicy! I hate plain foods! So I got plain vanilla activia light and added tapatio one day, mole (my inlaws made chicken mole so I stole a tiny bit lol) and one day I had creamy tomato Soup with a little pepper.... I've dropped a total of 26lbs since surgery 2 weeks out! You will get thru it, I promise! Good luck <3

I would call everyday but then again I'm a pain in the arse so idk haha I would try either Thursday or Friday.... Depending on what state you live in, depends on how long they have to respond.... I live in California. By law, my insurance only gets 5 days to decide.....

just got home from the dodgers vs padres game.....what a night!!! Today, I'm 2 weeks post op.... I tried to go to the stadium with my water bottle and snack (canned salmon) and it got thrown away :'( I was so upset... I tried to explain that I had a medical condition and that I needed to eat that at 8:30pm and was told I could retrieve it from my car.... I knew I should've brought my purse with the rip in the bottom.....definately could've sneaked it in lol.... As far as the water bottle, they said i could buy one from the concession stand... Waste!!!! we got there about 6:45, hiked up to our seats, and sat until 10:15 when I finally decided I couldn't take it anymore!!! We went to the concession stand and I ordered a hot chocolate and a dodger dog (for my hubby) hiked back to the car and (once we found it!) we came home.... so, just a suggestion, if you go to a game, hide your food better than I did because there is NOTHING healthy at the concession stand except for water....and who wants to spend $5 on a bottle of water?!?

2009 I was a 40FF at the age of 21.... I said screw it.... Breast reduction!!! Now, I'm a 38D and I hope to still lose a little

Great job!

@amazon13 I know that.... And I understand that.... Fortunately for me, I have no muscles and as far as my hair, I take biotin.... My doctor isn't concerned about it yet and neither am I. Thank you for your concern. @jenn31MA I have not.... Where can I get it? I've tried just about everything and wasted so much money on them :/

Target has perfect 4oz servings.... As far as plates, I just bought baby spoons/forks... But they also have baby plates that are perfect sizes as well... Try Walmart, cheapest I've seen... Or dollar stores

Hahaha see? Look forward to that! I've been looking forward to my baked potato with avocado (doctor approved too lol) for dinner tonight.... Good luck girl!

I don't think it was head hunger....

pudding? Oh I would have killed during my liquid stage for pudding! No one told me lol Congrats!

finally off liquid dieting....about time.... I'm pretty sure I died and went to heaven this morning while I was eating my one egg white....it was so yummy <3 the liquid diet is no joke.... Definately harder than I expected!!! I know this is bad but on my liquid diet I didn't have any protein! I tried, and tried and tried.... They tasted DISGUSTING!!!! I'm still unable to find a protein drink/supplement I like that isn't full of collagen.... My doctor knows this and only suggested his opinion.....protein drinks are gross.... And he has no clue how we can stand them his exact words haha.... So he said once I start soft foods I need to fill my days with protein.... Egg whites, lentils, turkey, beans... Protein and fiber.....and my multivitamins..... So today has started with one egg white (6g protein), and a splash of pepper for taste.... I have canned salmon for lunch & dinner.... Which is about 8g of protein each for a total of 24g of protein... Better than nothing I guess

Today is day 14 post op for me.... I know exactly what you're going through.... Have you decided on your "first meal" yet? My doctor told me I can have egg whites while on soft foods....so today, I cooked myself one egg-white.... What you are really "craving" is the ability to CHEW something..... Trust me! I went through the same exact thing these last few days lol.... Now that I'm chewing my egg, I don't have the cravings I did 4 days ago.... I no longer want to order a pizza, just to lick a slice or have a cheeseburger just to get the tastes...... I'm very happy with my egg lol... If you haven't already, try activia vanilla yogurt or tomato Soup.... My doctor suggested these to me and they helped me get through my last week!

I'm 2 weeks out today and eating my first egg-white

Theyre making chicken mole and rice!!!! My favorite dish!!!! Damn you in-laws! lol

I havent been on here in a few days and since then ive been wondering.... WHY DO I HAVE TO BE ON LIQUIDS FOR FOURTEEN FREAKING DAYS!!!!!! okay but seriously i am so tired of water, powerade and tomato soup.... nothing else tastes good and now now I'm getting tired of the only things that tastes good -__- i move to soft foods on tuesday/wednesday and it cant come fast enough

every time I pee.... I know I shouldn't but I can't stop myself.... I like seeing the lbs disappear throughout the day

congrats!!!!!

Good for you. You don't need her as a friend. Sounds like a b***h I would have slapped a few times lol
