Getting light headed, is it normal?
Oh yeah. also.. if you are on blood pressure medicines probably means your BP is running very low and you should have it checked.. You probably dont need them anymore.. That happened to me within 4-6 weeks after surgery Chris

Getting light headed, is it normal?

Never thought id say this.. HOW DO I SLOW DOWN OR STOP WEIGHT LOSS?
Im within 10lbs of my "new goal weight" casue i blew the original goal weight out of the Water. IM actually starting to get to skinny. Several people have mentioned it to me. Im in a 33" ( from a 52-54) waist and large shirt ( from a 4xl ). Is it as simple as adding calories? I still find it hard to eat what i eat just cause of the fact that im truly still never hungary and i eat only casue i have to. Any sugestions??? Thank you Christian

need a little support today
HMMM been over 3 weeks. Thats a long stall.. Did you talk to your dietician. If it doesnt move soon i would make a phone call and track what you are doing for food intake and Water and excercise. I didnt have my first stall for 3 months and then again at 6 months.. Now im trying to actually stop losing. Im only a ew lbs form goal but a lot of people saying im getting to skinny. Thats ODD!!! When have i ever heard that one. Im there for you for advice. Chris

Couple of food and timeframe questions
i can eat anything that does not have a lot of sugar.. Im basically at goal weight and trying to slow down my weight loss.. i added in 1 300 calorie meal.. The only think so far that has not agreed with me is a dd hot cocoa. i had no idea how much sugar was in it and it killed me. Chris

Couple of food and timeframe questions
I would be very very careful of almost all of that .. Why after all your hard work would you want t go back to bread, doritos etc etc... Please be careful with what your doing on your new found "you".. Why ruin it. One dorito leads to 2 leads to 3 and then a BAG FULL.....Just doesnt make sense. I wish noone bad only good. Stay healthy.. Eliminate all middle aisles at the grocery store. You only need fruits, grains, meats etc Chris

hiccups everytime I eat or drink anything

2 months out--ACID ugh
Thats been my only issue but i take prescrived med for it and im all set .. just dont eat and lay right down.. if you eat you must wait 2-3 hours before bed and that usually will solve your issue. Chris

surgery Monday the 3rd.... what ifs!
Wrong way to think. What if you dont have the surgery,, Not to be morbid but you will probably die by 50. Thats why i had it. 9 months in and im down just under 200lbs. Saved my life for sure and no looking back.. So please consider this option becasue even if you lost it on your own you would more then likely gain it back plus some. Thats most people story.. So you are doing the right thing. Your being given the tool to fix the issue. Use the tool and dont ever go back the other way casue u can... Wish you the best Chris

post surgery and relationships.

post surgery and relationships.
HMMM.. Common thread in here. There is definately resentment sometimes with your partner. they get scared your going to find someone better though that may not be your intention.. Its been thrown at me so i kinda get it. Its a tough one. Im from Boston area but i own a home on Lake Livingston.. Is that near you?? Just wondering,,, I cant wait to get out of the cold!!! Chris

Not sure what to expect
well at a week in you shouldnt be eating anything solid i dont think??? Right? You should be on shakes?? I guess that is my first question.. Then after shakes for a short time it is puree for like 1-2 weeks then regular food. >?>? All weight loss centers are a bit diffrent but im checking to see if you are on food right away .. I can help.. Chris.

Is it possible?
i might have aprotein shake 2-3 times per week.. not so much anymore. Im into crockpot meals now. Like ill put 5 chicken break in a crockpot raw with a large chicken broth, A full large bag of frozen carrots and another bag of frozen mixed veges. Ill live off of that for 6-7 meals .. Its easy.. let it cook on low for 8 hours and so moist.. Chris

Is it possible?
Im sorry.. Maybe strict is the wrong word. Just stay on track with excercise, Water and Protein. Some woman the other day was asking why she wasnt loosing weight but she mentoned she ate 4 oz of mashed potatoes at a time.. Im like NO NO NO.. I have not had any Pasta, rice, starches like that of any kind since I started this. truly it is all about the protein and a small ammount of veges. Make sure you walk a lot... Trust me i know its hard to do when i was 400 and u being where u are it is not easy. Walk 4 times per day for 15 minutes each time and increase from there. like every 2 weeks increase by 5 minutes per walk . Im here to answer any questions that you have. Christian
