I love edamame, However my paper work reads dry edamame.... can we eat raw... I love it! Im 6 weeks out tues

Thanks guys! I will start small w 2-3 oz and go from there! This is harder than I thought in my head but so glad I did it!

So I've been doing so good with food nothing bothers me, last night I took one bite too much im guessing and it got stuck in my throat lower area. Had to throw up .... Tonight at dinner same thing chicken was going down nicely then one more bite. Got stuck! Had to throw up. I'm 6 weeks out and can't figure out how much I can hold yet, any suggestions on how to find out or how much we can hold, I know everyone is different but some kind of gauge would be nice! Thanks y'all!

I accidentally forgot and used one with my first coffee in forever, (i do iced) and I thought oh no issues maybe this is ok, so I may try again... Thanks for asking!

Yes plain Greek yogurt does suck! Love the suggestions:) thanks gals!

Hi sorry for these questions but actually am curious! Ok, one I'm on soft foods.... I love yogurt can't do plain .... is everyone not eating flavored yogurts?! Like chiaboni? There's are not super low sugar. And does anyone know what the number we should keep our sugar to daily!? Also is there a way to only track Protein on MFP my fitness pal, or see it where it shows calories?!

Hi guys, saw my Dr. today and it went great down 29 lbs in a month could not be happier and now onto eating soft foods but after a month of liquid anything sounds good Anyways, Larry at my Dr. office suggested we do a pic on our bathroom mirror (recent one) so we see it everyday... and every 3 months add a new one under the old, this is because we tend to "see" the same old person everyday in that mirror even though we are changing drastically, this is too remind us of our amazing effort and progress even if that darn scale isnt moving our bodies are changing and we need to remind our selves daily... Thanks Larry! And best of luck to you all! xoxox

Surgery the 25 th down 26 total 16 since surgery! Stalled week 2 all week today my period is here so we shall see! Was so hoping for 30lb down on my one mth apt!

Love love love that idea so darn cute! Too bad done having babies or I would steal congrats and proud of you too

You are doing fantastic, however I know what you mean.... I was 240 and 233 day of surgery today I went up a lb to 218 so far 27 since pre op and surgery was sept 25 th. I've lost 16 after .... I have the same thoughts too but trying not to focus on it. My good friend in NJ lost 45 in two months I'm nowhere near her! Lol anyways, I like you did tell people around me, lets face it they will figure it out anyways and I feel people are just waiting to know how much I've lost! I might tell people I don't know, not weighing .... Maybe you can too . Hang I'm there you will be laughing at this day in a few months! It is a huge adjustment physically emotionally and mentally! Xo

Stupid, but my breasts going to nothing! Like I'm so afraid, and can't have gross saggy ones either.... Just don't want anymore surgeries....

Wow! So sorry , this must be so hard an frustrating! I pray it gets resolved soon!

I am also wondering..... I take centrum chewable and I thought I read somewhere to take 2 for us. But bottle says take 1 ? Should I be taking two? I can't chew they gag me. I crush and do in protein shake.

Yes yes yes I do! They are like aren't you supposed to be excersising and I'm like yes but I have NO energy. I hear this passes also still on liquids till 1 mth tue yay!!!!

Oh sorry!!!! Never had dumping yet, however what you describe sounds just like it! Feel better!!!

Someone suggested smooth move tea on my TMI post a week ago.... Almost mth out.... It worked and was pretty mild compared to a laxative , I made that mistake And almost died! Lol anyways I liked it I let my self get a week out and uncomfortable before I use anything. Good luck.

Hi all! I posted in this one way earlier . Ill be a mth out tues yay!!! Dr on weds and looking forward to moving from liquid diet!!!!! Done! I'm about 26 lbs w pre and post op so far. I'm totally getting protein in about 70/ 90 a day because I pretty much only do protein shakes! Ugh!!! Lol anyways I feel like my water is low though possibly 40/ 50 oz a day. Am I the only one having trouble getting water in when out and about, if I'm home I'm good about it.... If I run errands or carpool kids whatever we moms do I forget! Anyways, I have been reading about everyone having a relationship w a Nutritionist. I'm jealous! I got a phone call w her and an email w info and have emailed her a question or two since. She lives in FL and I'm in California! Wth! Anyways thanks for support and answering questions all the time! Hope everyone is doing well. I'm glad I did this just ready to feel "normal" again! Xo

That's actually a great point! Thanks!
