To tell or not to tell...facing family this Thanksgiving
AlanaRN replied to Iowa_summergirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've told a lot of people about my surgery. However if someone questions that I don't want to discuss with, I just say low carb, low fat and no sugar. -
Advice needed quickly!

Leg/ankle swelling six days after surgery
AlanaRN replied to maier_la's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Call your dr about any leg swelling! -
What does everyone do for snacks? I need some ideas. I usually do cheese or a little hummus but I need to mix it up. Any ideas? Does anyone eat beef jerky or slim jims? Are those allowed?

I'm interesting in getting a dehydrator as well. Looking for recommendations.

I am 6 weeks out and stalled!
AlanaRN replied to thintrappedinafatbody42's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was 6 weeks this past Tuesday and I'm going through same thing. I posted yesterday and it seems like other 6-7 weekers are going through same. It is really frustrating. I've lost about 2 lbs in the past 2 weeks. Lost 35 total. I'm also following my plan of 80 G protein. I get anywhere from 600-800 calories a day. I just don't know. Hang in there. I'm trying to! -

I feel the same!!!! Feels like I'm stuck! It's just by chance that I have days off in between. I work 3 in a row next week. Should be difficult. 8 hours would have been easy yesterday. It was around 3 that I started to slow down.
