I went on a Princess Cruise 8 weeks post op. They were very accommodating. I found it easiest just to order the Protein I wanted with no sides and I stayed away from the buffet. I'm not sure what cruise line your trip is on but Princess had a great shrimp and cucumber salad that was available all day long. I also brought individual packaged lean body Protein shakes with me and my shaker .

Well before surgery i was getting it every other month. Since surgery it is like clockwork now. I have also noticed that my cramps are SO MUCH WORSE. The first day or 2 I can hardly move. Guess i need to go see the doc.

I'm also at around 800 calories - 70-90 protein - Sleeved on 3-11-13 I live by My Fitness Pall

Week 0-4 Liquids Only Week 4-6 Softs (eggs, yogurt) Week 6-8 Some protein rich foods like shredded chicken and fish Week 9 Most foods

I use it almost everyday to track my protein and calories.... I find the days I dont use it are the days I dont hit protein or go out of range in my calorie goal.

Like Sarah said all scales are different... On my scale im always 2 pounds lighter than on my mom's scale and teh doctor's scale always shows a 5 pound difference, You may also be losing inches, are you measuring? Your body needs time to adjust to teh changes it going through. My recommendation is wait another week if you still see no change go to your NUT and see if they can adjust your diet a little. I keep stalling out whenever I don't eat enough.

Talk to your doctor. Mine told me if I had to go on something that could hurt my stomach he would keep me on Carafate to protect it. See if that is an option

I also gained 10 pounds from fluids. You are probably retaining water. You need to give your body a little more time to adjust. I didn't see any loss right away either.

Yes i was told the same... no baths no swimming. I took a shower a day everyday. I did try swimming at 6 weeks and it was rough and i all i did was float and doggie paddle.

Im 3 months out -- I have had a lot of hair breakage. Biotin just wasted working.... my hair was too brittle - So much that i decided to get a pixie hair cut.

I am bipolar -- have been since i was 14. The surgery hasn't effected my symptoms or the way i feel in a negative way. My medication will need to be adjusted soon because of the 40 pound weight loss.

I am using Lean BoIdy for her --- its under 200 calories for 30 protein and doesnt have a nasty after taste

I'm a 42 H.... and as I lose weight I am not losing in the Boobs so my back kills me... I am thinking of a reduction once i hit and maintain goal for a year. I sometimes use a TENS unti on my back which relieves some of the pain

I just flew from JFK to Florida with Protein powder packets, a shaker bottle and my liquid carafate medication. Had no issues. They did take my medication for a few minutes to screen it since it was a large bottle of liquid. My mom does Atkins and travels with food all the time

The only flavor i can tolerate is Icy Orange of the pre made flavors..... I have yet to try the mixes
