Don't worry about day to day weight. I got really obsessive with the scale for the first two weeks. My Dr. told me to weigh no more than twice a week since everyone fluctuates daily. Best advice I ever got. I'm much happier now that I relaxed a little.

I eat at the same time everyday whether I want to or not...usually not:). I just want to get in the habit of three meals a day plus snack. It's hard some days.

I went out of town a couple of weeks ago and brought mio drink flavoring. It helped if I wanted something other than water at a restaurant. What stage are you in? It might help to find a store at your destination that has protein drinks...I was only gone a couple of days and I really fell down on my protein for a couple days!

Great news everyone!

I think it's hilarious when men think women shouldn't fart...do they think we make it. To age 50 and then explode?

Wow! Looking good!

I was never full on liquids until I started blending shakes with yogurt.

Hope you feel better soon!

Does that include bottle red heads? Here's hoping lol!

I hope you're better soon!

I have chronic pain issues so swimming and water aerobics help me a lot. I did this regularly prior to surgery and was happy to get back into it after my incision closed. I also keep weights next to me when I'm watching Tv and I do arm excercises during commercials. It's a start:)

They're made from a fibrous indigestible yam...they have no carbs and no calories. Really. Google them...I'm reserving judgement. Reviews range from raves to god-awful. They're also pretty expensive. $2.50 for about 7 oz. We'll see!

*coercion *=costco. Autocorrect lol

I just bought some low fat whole grain flat bread rounds at coercion.had 1/4 of one with some ground sirloin. I've been eating quinoa cause it has protein and is a complex carb. I'm frankly scared to try any pasta, rice, etc for fear of dumping or not losing. Other than that carbs are coming from fruit and beans. I just ordered some miracle noodles...they get mixed reviews, so we'll see!

I'm always shocked, too. I was very thin and fit for fifteen years and when I gained weight I just remained in total denial. No more!

Congratulations!

I would check with your surgeon and hospital. Procedures and policies vary so widely among surgeons and facilities!
