Fast heart rate after surgery can be signs of bleeding, call doctor ASAP

I think we will all have that problem from time to time. I had it week 2, and just had it for an entire week ( beginning month 4).

Iharis I don't see the photos you attached but sounds like your doing awesome!

I have tried baked fish twice, it just don't settle very well. I wish I could find something with substance that would. Congrads on the 10#! Awesome stuff!

Hi Heidi. I am down 40 as of this morning. Its very slow and since I'm having something stuck the past few days, very little goes down. My husband assures me it will eventually pass. (He is a yr out) but I'm tired and about ready to go get it scoped out. Other than this I have been doing good. I run 4 miles every morning. Wearing size 8-10

Lousianalady. I think that's my log in

I'm only down 37# since surgery. From 190 now 153. I can't complain tho. I have only puked once, had an episode yesterday but it passed. I was hoping to be smaller b [ATTACH]43838[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]43838[/ATTACH] y now but it is what it is.

So happy to see an update! It's all easy from here! Add e on your fitnesspal so we can share dinner ideas!

Absolutely myfitnesspal!! And you can add us as friends and see what we eat. As for portions. . 1/5 a cup is what I use for 3-5 bites. Even if I only do 2 bites I just call it 1/5

Keep me posted!

I'm doing good. 3 1/2 months out. Down to 153. 20# to go!

Frees how are you doing

Go over to post op side and ask. There are several

Umakit, I agree.. we all need to see that we have an addiction and when it's taken away in 1 day we don't all handle it well. Slow prep, education, forums, and plans are important process

Yes after surgery you will have a wk that your saying" what the hell did I do". My suggestion is you talk to others like us. I didn't panic because I had someone..but I have helped others and it can really freak you out. You will have lost your crutch..food..an addiction! And like any addiction there is panic.. there is a light in that tunnel and no matter how you feel mentally it will soon change. Good luck! And BTW the surgery is not bad. Don't start weighting and getting upset, healing comes first.. then don't I mean DONT move forward on foods early! Hugs. Message me any time. I'm 3 months post op.

A 1200 cal a day does not promise weight loss. Its what you do with that 1200 that makes a difference. My sister used to use myfitnesspal with me and I would see pizza and all kinds of stuff on it. I would try this... Breakfast, 1 boiled egg and 1/2 cup oatmeal lunch.. 1 package tuna, ff mayo, 3 crackers dinner.. 1small bake potato, Ff butter spray, Ff cottage cheese This is the quantity you will be on after surgery.. so if you do this now it will show big time! Between meals have celery or something ff. Always remember splenda and ff butter sprays

I didn't get mine. Mildredwise@yahoo.com

I agree that being on soft food after 6 days is fast. I was on liquid a month. Concentrate on healing. Weight loss will happen soon. Just remember your pouch is the size if an egg and don't overfill it. Being sick this early is very painful

I don't know what I would do if I couldn't workout. Its never been something I had to push myself to do but rather push not to overdo. I gained weight after I quit smoking and a hysterectomy 4 yrs ago but still jogged.

Since your only 6 wks out, try backing up on your diet til Thursday. Cream soups and protein drinks

Why do you use it in your ice cream recipe

Be prepared that this might happen again. Its normal for us that get strictures to have to be ballooned more than once. They did me 3 weeks in a row

What is torani?

I am doing good. Feeling well. I too am out walking dogs. I jog a few times a week.
