With the edges cut off so it was mostly cheese lol

3 cheese ravioli's from Papa Gino's.

Be careful. They tell you to wait for a reason. It's not just your eating, your body is going through a LOT of changes and you want to make sure you are providing a safe environment for the baby.

A second opinion might not be a bad idea. I know you don't want to go too high and jeopardize the weight loss, but right now you have to make sure the little one is well fed there will be plenty of time after he/she is born to lose more weight.

I have before but I'm honestly not sure if I do now or not. Could be an allergic reaction to the new condoms we got :-/

Are these common after surgery? I know immediately after it might be because of the antibiotics they give you in the hospital, but what about several weeks out?

We're going out to a Thai restaurant with friends tonight. Anyone have any suggestions on things that might be ok? I'm in the soft food stage.

It depends on your surgeons program. I have to wait a full year.

Haha I can't wait!

My book says we should avoid them because its harder to control your intake with them, doesn't mention air. I use them anyway. Not all the time, but I don't avoid them.

Thanks!! It definitely does feel good to tell people I've lost 50 lbs! I feel a difference in some clothes but haven't had to shop yet. I am getting soft and squishy though lol

We went for it the night of my one week post op appointment. Surgery on Weds, did it the following week on Thursday lol libido never left thankfully still where it's been. I kinda hope it does pick up more as I lose more weight and can do more positions.

I know tomato soup counts as a liquid, can I drink it between meals out of a cup? Or is that considered snacking between meals?

They are for the most part, this is the first time I've had conflicting info from them. I'm going with the nutritionist's info on this one though.

It's your decision but PLEASE think it over very thoroughly before you cut ties with family. Like a previous person said, maybe just distancing yourself for awhile might help. I speak from personal experience, you never know what can happen. If you cut ties, and god for it something tragic happens, how will you feel?

April 26th is the date I get to start solids! I'm counting down lol

I'm still on soft, moist foods. Canned chicken, tuna, scrambled eggs, ground meats, etc.

I mean I eat food more than twice a day, not that I eat more chewables. So I took one at breakfast but then either lunch or dinner is going to hurt

I got chewable Pepsid but the directions say you can only take 2 a day and I eat more than that lol

The Dr wouldn't refill the prescription of Prilosec she said I shouldn't have any issues and if I am it means I need to eat less or chew more. I've been eating the amount I was told by the nutritionist, which is 1/2 cup. Sometimes less. And I chew as much as humanly possible. She said I should only be eating 1 1/2 medicine cups of food. The nutritionist packet says 1/2 cup. I don't know, I'm just sick of being nauseous and gassy

Had my 6 week follow up today! Officially lost 30 pounds since surgery, and 50 total. She said I'm doing everything right and doing amazingly well. She said I make it look easy LOL
