Marietta Georgia- so lost in the gym... what to do?
I liked the body for life program.- New guy here, you've GOT to read this!
Uneventful recovery here. No nausea, no pain. Constipation is my biggest problem right now. I think most people are looking for worst case scenario and what to do if it happens. If nothing happens.......nothing to talk about. The scary posts do stand out but I am encouraged by people SO excited to change their lives.- How to get enough protein
It comes with time.... Work up to it. Worry about hydration and getting rest and healing. The more you can eat, the more protein you can get in. I like to get up early and start with a protein shake. If I wake up late...Bleh. Ill never get it all in.- 6mo 12day post op 110.1lbs down
Holy cow!- Reward for achieving your goal?
I'm not really sure. I have achieved rewards a few times in the past but never collected them. I just can't get myself to spend the money. At least I know I earned them. I figure there are some things I am going to have to buy as a I lose weight... clothes and shoes, I'll have to update my hair and makeup. I want to get LASIK and get rid of my glasses. Some little, some big as the time comes. I guess I don't really have numbers in mind, I'll just know when it's time.- Caramelized Onion and Swiss Chicken Burgers.
No, Im single and rarely cooked Pre surgery so there's no huge benefit to me to buying in bulk like that. I don't have any place to store 80 rolls if toilet paper! For the meat I guess it's good but I can't talk myself into paying money to shop somewhere.- Hows your weight loss coming along?
Fantastic! Best thing I ever did!- Caramelized Onion and Swiss Chicken Burgers.
Yum!!- your last meal before pre op ?!
I had an enourmous brownie the night before I started the liquid diet.- Pardon my bluntness...
If this isn't a place of kindred spirits where I can let off a little steam about being sick of eating gross mushy foods, then someone please point me to that place. I thought that was here among people who get it, because it's certainly not among my friends who thought I could just puree a chicken thigh, or that I would just be eating salad right out of surgery. There is so much tough love here and that's awesome for people who respond to it. Not everyone does. A little corrective action is necessary. I see so much berating and brow beating though. *shrug * I guess if that's your way that's what the ignore list is for. When you're on week three of chicken broth and nasty Protein you earn the right to say you're sick of eating that.- Hows your weight loss coming along?

I don't think I can drink anything gelled.... Ech. Maybe miralax or benefiber.- Is it possible to start stalling in first 2 weeks? Concerned
Totally normal!- GOOD fast food choices ?! :)
If you have a restaurant around that does grilled or baked chicken (El Pollo Loco, KFC) that's always a good option. Your grocery store deli. You can buy Rotisserie roasted chicken by the piece. Hardee's will make any burger a lowcarb burger, wrapped in lettuce. You could get a turkey burger. Subway will make any sandwich a salad. Someone already mentioned chili from Wendy's, but you can also get burgers and chicken sandwiches wrapped in lettuce. Just tell them to leave off the bread.- Missed Period
The stress of having surgery plus changes in your diet plus rapid weight loss will probably mean the gift of a jacked up cycle for a while. Mine came early. Precious. What I wanted to deal with week one post op was that wench Moms Nature.- What Are Your Thoughts About Healthy Frozen Meals?
I used to buy Lean Cuisines, the ones with just meat and veggie. The broccoli beef I think was pretty good., - Easy way out or not, I'm glad I did it!
