Hey Ladies!! I am seeing everyone is doing amazing...! This passed week I reached 199lbs which I haven't been in the 100's since I was maybe in middle school. This is such an amazing feeling! I am almost 4 months post op and down a total of 64lbs. My thing is I want to stay motivated and get on a workout routine! How are all of you staying motivated?

I know this is a topic that has been discussed but I am about 2 1/2 months post op and drink occasionally...I know there is empty calories and all that but I was wondering can drinking too much alcohol stretch out the stomach...? Just Wondering...advice anyone...? HW 270lbs SW 258lbs CW 236 Goal Weight 165

I'm from Texas...and girl I hear you on that I'm looking forward to the weight to all come off and feel even more better.

Girl well keep up the good work! I'm starting to more workouts cause I can tell I'm losing so now I want to start toning! Haha I've been walking so I'm just stepping it up

Oh I know same here. How are you doing with taking your Vitamins and getting your Protein in? I have my days where I forget my vitamins and I try so hard to get all my protein in.

Hey! Sounds like your doing great. My surgery was the 15th of April. I'm down 34lbs. This week I'm slowing adding a variety of foods but still mainly soft. I can tell a huge difference in the way I look and feel. But everything is great on my end! just so glad the first month was over for me cause it was tough.

Awesome thank you...but I'm just scared to get a hernia, cause my doctor said starting too soon can cause them.

Ok so I have been dying because I'm ready to started toning! All I have been doing is walking and ready to start doing strength conditioning. How long should I wait until I start weights and working out my shrinking butt! I want to start doing squats and sit up! I am 5 weeks post op. Advice...Anyone??

Go for the Soups...like chicken tortilla.

Ok so I am 4 weeks post op and I feel like I'm eating and drinking ALL THE TIME! I try so hard to get my protein in with drinks and shakes and food and then on top of that the snacks and water. So this comes to this question. What does your daily eating schedule look like! And pointers would be great cause again I feel like all I do is eat (small portions) and drink and scared its stretching my pouch!

I hear ya it has not been fun.

Thank you guys I will for sure do the crackers...it has been a roller coaster day and really didn't eat anything.

Today I'm feeling sick to my stomach. I got up and ate an egg hoping that would make me feel better. But it didn't. Has anyone felt so sick and/or nauseous and didnt eat anything? I just feel if I do try and eat something I'm going to puke. I barley was able to keep my Vitamins down with Water. Any body has suggestions on what I should do?
