I stopped coming to this forum because I am losing soooo much slower than people on here. I am 50 and post menopausal, so I knew it would be slow and I am not hard core dieting. I eat what I want, just a lot less of it! Had several weeks if being really sick and have been inactive too, but today did some before and after pics... I has surgery 2 1/2 months ago.

Are? I hear about them on Facebook, etc... A good low carb sweet treat is all I can gatherI'm not allowed nuts until 3 months, but sure and follow your doctor's orders. I think nuts can get stuck in staple line and cause serious issuesThere are some reviews about leaking and stuff... Never had that happen at all! Just follow instructions lolI got the black and decker on amazon. I love it and love I can switch attachments and use loose coffeeThen eat! LOL just kidding sort of, I've been hungry ever since surgery. I mean when my stomach is empty I know it! I am also hungrier more often. Some believe you won't be hungry after surgery, but it's not true for all of us. I am almost 8 weeks out and I get hungry everyday, but it's more at appropriate times. You'll find a little protein will fill you up nicely and you'll get hungry faster when you eat carbs without protein, like a piece of fruit.Google b-6 great for nervesI buy mine on amazon. I am on my 3rd tub of fuzzy navel and have a few other flavors. I get them on amazon for $32 with free shipping... You have to look for the ones for that price and free shippingOrdering some nectar before surgery! I don't know how I would have made it the first few days and weeks without it! I couldn't stand the chocolate or anything with milk! It just tasted like sludge. It's not uncommon to not be able to tolerate milk post op. I don't work for them or anything lol just know how much it helped me! I have the cappuccino and roadside lemonade too, I prefer the fuzzy navel. I start my morning off with one and I have a head start on my protein! I like the cappuccino, but it's really too sweet, but if you love sweet coffee you'll love itI have a single serving coffee maker. You can use either k cups or lose coffee. It has two baskets! And half the price of the pricey ones!I seem to drink all the time! I have to admit, when I am queasy I only take small sips. Would not getting enough water cause vomiting? I get close to 64 if not more... I don't measure, but think dehydration isn't an issue. I had a UA the other day and one indicator for dehydration was normal, but that's not definitiveI'd also go by what your nut says. There are a ton if opinions here and I wouldn't say any are wrong! I can't eat protein and nothing else. I would totally goof up! There are some who suggest no carbs T all, again not necessarily a good thing. Also, do your own research! Your brain needs carbs to function properly! I strive to stay between 30-50 grams a day, but don't always stay there... I think you're doing great! Like someone said... 4 lbs a week is great! Water and protein are super important, but if you're getting in what YOUR nut says get some fruit or whole grain! It will pep you up!7 weeks too and lost the exact same amount, but I keep telling myself only 60 more to goal!The first month! And if i lie down too soon after eating my stomach really goes wild even nearly a 2 months out, but it's a lot quieter now than early on!Account
