Sorry it took so long to respond I had a hernia repair also and the pain from that was the worst pain I have ever felt in my life!!! I couldn't get in my bed because it was to high I had to take over my sons bed! I prepared individual size Jello and broths had everything I needed that I could think of! My kids are pretty self sufficient so I am lucky on that. I hope u are doing ok and this goes smoothly for you just know that you can do this!!

I am in the same boat as u are as far as being alone. I am a single mom of 2 my surgery was in July 2012. I am here to tell you it is hard, really hard bit you CAN do it !!!! I recovered in the hospital for 1 day and then came home had terrible pain due to a hernia repair also but I did it and you can too! Good luck on your surgery and recovery and previous poster is right this is a hard thing to do, not the easy way out like everyone thinks but it's the best secession I have made into life. My weight was 417 when I started and I am down to 289 now still have a long way to go but every day I work at it and you can too!!

Well thanks but its ok. I can so without it. I never really liked it that much before I had a banana with p. b. on it and it sooooo did not agree with me!

I am right there with you in the stall!! I am 8 mos post op and stuck at 292!! I also have just started working out and making myself stay on a schedule for it. I started at 417 and am down to 292 so I guess I am not doing so bad. I just wanted you to know you are not alone in the stall and hopefully we can get past it soon. It does make you think you are doing something you should not be or could be doing better but just take the best care of yourself you can and it will be fine!! Also check out this app called fooducate I just discovered it and it is awesome! You can scan the barcode of a food and it will tell you all about it and can add it to a food log if you choose it to!! Good luck!

I am just curious.... Have u tried any peanut butter. I can not handle it AT ALL!! Lol. It is my enemy! No matter what kind I have tried it is instant dumping! I am almost 8 mos out too!!
