I had 3oz. Of pea soup

Weight lost surgery for Dummies is a great book. They also have a cook book for after surgery is great

Congratulations on the 5k! Itopic did a 5 mile hike today. Next Sunday 15 miles

I had surgery on Feb 1, starting weight 241 and am now at 211. I am happy with my 30lbs gone forever! This weekend I had someone say to me "you should have lost at least double that by now". I brushed it off at the time, but then felt so discouraged. I felt like awful! I know that I am getting in at least 60g of protein a day, and walking at least 10,000 steps a day with strength training as well. I woke up this morning and realized after reading the forums here that everyone loses at a different pace. I don't have lots of extra skin (right now) and have lost many inches so I think I am going to just feel good about the 30 lbs and not worry about what others think. Thanks for letting me vent!

Yes, without a doubt. I too wish I had done it years ago. Today, after only 8 weeks, I was taken off my blood pressure medicine!

2 oz salmon with wasabi sauce it was so good

I had surgery on Feb 1 I took my contacts out on Jan 31 and wore my glasses to the hospital. When I put my contacts back in a few days later I needed to use cheaters to read! I made an eye appointment it is driving me crazy!

2 weeks post surgery Still on liquids finally getting in all my protein. I drove myself to the store today amd walked for 2 hours . I can tell you all it does get better. I spent 5 days in the hospital vomiting blood I never have not once regretted this decision Hang in there all good things to come

I am only one week post op, and got on my scale for the first time since last Friday and gained 2 lbs! How is this possible? Did anyone else experience this?

5Days post op and just leaving the today hospital. Have a touch of a pneumonia open incision which will take a visiting nurse but hopefully I am on my way! Good luck to every one

So not only am I vomiting blood one of my sure is now bleeding!
