  1. I want to try on some Old Navy jeans in the store, but I'm scared to go in there. The size 20's I just put on are used, maybe they're stretched out some? Eek!

  2. And so it begins...the hair loss, that is. Hopefully since it started earlier than most people say, it'll end earlier?

  3. I stay so constipated every BM should be logged as "cardio" on myfitnesspal.

      Two colace yesterday, and I'm 3 pounds down today - coincidence? I think not, lol.

  4. First post-op nutritionist meeting. She wants me closer to 80 grams of protein. This is the point where I stomp my feet like a kid and pout, "But it's HARD!", lol

      Yep. Mine went from 60g to 80g after surgery, too. It took me a couple of months to get there. At a year out, I can get 60g any day, 70g most days, and 80g a couple of days a week.

      New Whey makes a liquid protein that you can add to your favorite drink that has 42 grams of protein. They come in many different flavors!!

      Thanks! Maybe I just need to start earlier in the morning. I seem to run out of time to eat!

  5. Heading to Target to grab a Fitbit Zip. No sense in getting the more expensive one until I know I'm going to really use it!

  6. I want a damn salad.

      LOL. I was like that. Had my first one at 6 weeks.

      I nibbled lettuce on Friday, but I'm technically not clear until NEXT Friday. I'm itching for it, lol.

  7. Boss took us out to lunch - I was full off the meat from a sandwich alone :). And found out I can eat lettuce - took a few bites and it was WONDERFUL!

  8. My intestines are a problem. Nothing passes through, too much passes through...I really couldn't complain about that anywhere else.

  9. Weekends are tough - ate like a fool for 2 days and I'm up a pound. Getting back on the wagon today.

  10. My 5 year old niece sat on my lap and said, "You're getting smaller, I fit on your lap better" :)

  11. Had sauerkraut last night and thought I damaged something until I figured out it was gas. It was worth it.

      Oh, man......now I want some kraut.

      Awesome! Can't wait for that to happen to me. Keep up the good work.

  14. I want a fresh tomato more than I've wanted anything in a long time. Not cleared for raw veggies yet.

  15. Mini goal met! Lost 20% of my excess weight.

      Thanks! My next mini goal is 3 pounds away (265). That's the weight on my driver's license, lol

  16. 1 more pound to my next mini-goal, and I want to go run around the building until it comes off. Is it time to go home yet?!?

  17. If I don't get my portion distortion under control soon, my dog is going to weigh more than I do.

      LOL I fed my dog the rest of my chicken today I was thinking the same thing, but at least it's protein animals eat low carb too.

      I'm 3 months out & still have trouble with the amount I initially put on my plate. My eyes are still bigger than my stomach. Never finish it.

    3. roundisashape

      roundisashape

      Exactly! I always put the right amount there, and think, "there's no way that's enough!" As for my furball, I justify it by telling myself at least I'm not bringing her cheeseburgers every day anymore, lol.

  18. First day on real (but soft) food yesterday, and my stall broke - dropped 2 pounds. WOOO!

  19. Love my sleeve! Feeling great physically, but stressing about getting my final Economics paper in tonight. Just forgot and stuffed something in my face out of habit (that I REALLY shouldn't have eaten). She kicked it right back out. Reminder: issued.

  20. nsv? Can't stuff my phone in my bra anymore, it gets lost in there

      Hilarious. I had to go buy new one's last weekend. The last thing I wanted to do was go to the mall. But I am actually glad they are smaller. I've always been big chested. I am so over it.

    2. roundisashape

      roundisashape

      Yeah, I'm almost there! I just wish my belly would go down so I wouldn't look like a circle, lol.

  21. I hope my neighbor accidentally drops her stereo out of the upstairs window. She's vibrating my whole house and I'm trying to finish a final exam for a class I already can't stand.

  22. Went bowling as a team building activity at work yesterday. Felt good to be active, but needed to break out the dilaudid for the first time since the weekend I got home from the hospital!

    1. gowalking

      gowalking

      wonderful about the bowling. sorry you needed pain killers. next time, you likely won't.

      I hope not! It's just that one big incision that's still hurting. I find it baffling - I was sliced from stem to stern to have things removed a few years ago, and it didn't hurt as much as this little tiny hole.

  23. Do you take your ursodiol whole or sprinkle it in something?

  24. Unexpected even #3,567: when a drink lands on top of a gas bubble, it'll come back out with the burp. That was mildly embarrassing.

  25. Christmas potluck at work tomorrow. I'm on purees, so this isn't going to be much fun. I'm making meatballs, but there will be sooo much food.

    1. Jordan861

      Jordan861

      Eat soup/puree before the party. You will be full and not want anything.... You have this....
