  2. Just seems hopeless. I weighed myself this morning and I am back up a lb. instead of going down I am going up. I'm about to scream. I know everything that is being said is true and make sense. But I don't eat nearly enough calories vs how many I burn to go up a lb. I'm just ready to see the scale go down. It's so discouraging. ????
  3. Thank you as well. Hope all is going well. It does make sense all these articles and everything just doesn't make it any easier to accept ???? Hopefully everything will end up well. Good luck!!
  4. Thanks for the words of encouragement!! I hope it ends soon. It depressing. Lol. I feel like I workout all the time only for nothing.

  8. Yeah. My surgery and recovery was relatively easy. I am 4 weeks out as of yesterday. I am down 35 lbs and have began working out vigorously. I haven't seen the scale move other than go up and down in the last two weeks. I have lost like 2 lbs. but it's really beginning to bring me down. ????. Boo.

  10. It's been two weeks and I have only lost maybe 2-3 lbs. actually I go up and down. I have been working out a lot and getting my protein/water. I am getting so frustrated. ????
  11. Ugh! It's driving me insane!
  12. I am on whole foods. He moved me at two weeks from liquid phase to regular diet. I am pushing proteins. But I seriously take 4-5 bites of something and I'm stuffed. So then like 2 hours later I feel like my stomach is completely empty and hungry again.
  13. I am almost 4 weeks post op. I am eating protein or drinking at every meal. I feel like I am getting so full so quickly that I can't hold very much (I know that's the point) but the problem is about 2 hours later my stomach is empty again. I don't know if it's due to me working out and my body craving more calories? I feel like I'm constantly snacking.

  20. I am 6 days post op. First couple of days I def stuck to the liquid thing 100%. Here lately I have been making soups with soft noodles and making sure I chew them very well. I myself am getting kind of sick of the liquid diet. I am ready to move on.
