  1. I'm 2 months post op. I'm losing weight as I should, right on schedule, 34 lbs. I'm working out and drinking my water. That said, I feel amazing and have started to eat like I used to in social situations (not nearly as much or as often). A chip or two here, a bite of dessert there, and this past weekend was my 30th birthday so I had a few drinks, chips and dessert. The nurse practitioner told me everyday is a new day and to start over but I've been doing this, snacking a bit and what not for a few weeks and it's become a habit. I will not regain this weight and I want to have healthy life long habits but I'm falling hard into old habits. Advice? Help? Please!
  2. Thank you all so much! I feel much better. I need to put the scale away!
  3. I am 19 days post op. The first 13 days I lost 19 lbs. I feel great! I had my post op last Tuesday and started my 1/4-1/2 cup of soft protein once a day since then. I am following my doctors directions exactly, 2 shakes and my "meal." I drink my water, I'm active, I walk, I am doing everything right...BUT I have not lost a pound since adding my food. Not a pound in a week! What am I doing wrong? Anyone else?
  4. It helped a lot! Hasn't kept me up since. Me and my bar of soap. Grateful for the suggestion.
  5. Wow! Haha who knew? I'm willing to try anything. Thank you! I'll let you know tomorrow.
  6. Could be iron! I don't go on all of my vitamins until next week so I'm hoping it gets better.
  7. I am 10 days post op. I've had a terrible time falling asleep since day five. I'm in no pain but I've started to experience restless legs which keep me up for hours. I've never had this before. I go back to work Monday, any ideas to get this under control?
  8. Thank you for posting this! I'm 10 days post op and constantly hungry. It is making me crazy. I am trying to keep myself busy, I drink my protein, but even water doesn't help. I'm happy to hear it'll go away.
