  1. Thanks!! The problem is I will lose up to 10 pounds then stall a few weeks lol
  2. I love parmesan tilapia. Now Chili's have an awesome tilapia ethics chili pepper and avacado and mango sauce.
  3. I have to go shopping too. I am now officially in size 14 jeans. I also can wear depending of course the shirt XL and larges and a couple mediums. I am 5'8 started at 287 today 218
  4. By tomorrow morning I will be at 70 pounds lost forever. I am in a weight loss frenzy right now since my month stall. Losing a pound a day!!! WEEEE!!!!
  5. I didn't have to pay not one penny. I have bcbs highmark. My out of pocket Max was 750 and that was met early January last year before I even thought of surgery
  6. I had my first stricture procedure when I was a little over 3 weeks post op but it started a week before. I had my second stricture procedure day after Christmas. I felt like I was developing another one but its better now
  7. I feel like this today. I even had a b-12 shot today and I an completely exhausted. I an overwhelmed as I have so much homework to do and all I have energy for is typing on this phone
  8. I am 4 weeks out from gallbladder surgery and it hurt like HADES!! This was the worst pain I have ever felt and that's having all 3 of my kids natural. Sorry to scare you but everyone is different just like with the gastric bypass
  9. Doing good glad my stall is over lost 4 pounds since!! From 224 to 219. And I'm on that monthly so hopefully some of that is fluid retention lol
  10. Got mine today and I am 3 months post op and been weak and dizzy today. Didnt experience this with the other months!!
  11. My best guess would be a 16-18. They run small anyways. I am 3 months post op and went from 22w to now comfortably a 16. I am 5'8
  12. According to my bottle of papaya enzymes you can chew 4-9 daily
  13. If you can take 4 weeks it is best. Some people go back to work after a week or two
  14. You are experiencing the stall that happens at 3-5 weeks out. Usually lasts a week or two. Your body is playing catch up and is trying to hold on to water. Try for a day or two to up your calories and just keep drinking your fluids and your protein. I am 3 months post op and just got over my second stall. First one was at 3 weeks out lasted for about two weeks and this one lasted for 4 weeks.
  15. 65 ounces is great!!! I was and still am required 75-80 grams of protein a day since coming home from surgery 3 months ago. You are not going to stretch your pouch!!! Hopefully you can keep doing a good job with the protein because you will have to get more daily soon
  16. HW 287 two weeks prior to surgery SW 276 CW 221 total lost 66 pounds 55 since surgery 10/29/2012
  17. I don't like the word cheat!! Especially since we can eat regular foods just in moderation. I see nothing wrong with a nibble here or there just as long as its not nibbling all day all night every day. But if you have 5 chips in a week that's pretty good instead of the 5 bags a week. Or the one slice of pizza compared to the whole thing. Plus the toppings on pizza are good for you depending in the toppings. Cheese is. Veggies are. Protein in sausage and the other meats. The only thing not so good is the bread but we are allowed to have some breads in moderations. Please don't use the word cheat!! It just makes you feel guilty like you did something bad and need punished for!! We are human!!
  18. Yup it happened to me!! Some days I am more hungry then others.
  19. Papaya enzymes are to help digestion. It especially helps with food that is stuck Or if you feel you ate too much. Some people just use meat tenderizer in warm water
  20. I had this before surgery. Luckily my surgeon schedules the EDG just a couple weeks after your first visit so it was diagnosed and treated way before surgery. This was the second tine I had this too. And yes the antibiotics to treat it is aweful and harsh and does cause a yeast infection and thrush sometimes
  21. Good luck!! I will he thinking of you today!!
  22. I weigh every day!! I am addicted and if someone tries to take it away they may lose a limb or two lol. I get down when I haven't lost any but I know its a process and eventually it will go in the right direction. And when it does it makes me feel more motivated
