  5. Same issue here, and PMS is so much worse for me after surgery. It's the only time I ever feel hungry.
  6. Totally have the same issue... It's completely awful. It happens mostly if I eat anything sweet. Ugh...

  8. Thanks so much everyone! I had RNY on July 1st, 2015. The weight loss has really slowed down and although it's frustrating I know that if I stick to the plan I'll keep plugging away. It's so hard to stay off the scale! I'm only 5 pounds from my goal weight but my Dr says that I will continue to lose for another 3-6 months. Best decision I've ever made!!

  11. Top picture is the week before surgery. Bottom two are current photos. Starting weight 277, current weight 182. Total loss of 95 pounds just shy of 6 months. Could not be happier!!

  13. The first 3 months after surgery I had the same issue. It's definitely slowed down now and they are super light as of lately. I think our bodies are just so out of whack everything is trying to figure things out.

  15. I just started using BARIATASTIC and I absolutely love it! It's a tracker designed specifically for bariatric patients, tracks calories, carbs, protein.... Pretty much everything. The app gives recipes and access to a few different weight loss forums. It's fantastic!!

  18. Lots of soups, Turkey chili, stuffed pepper soup minus the rice, zucchini boats stuffed with sausage and mushrooms....
  19. String cheese, Turkey jerky and laughing cow rolled up in deli meat too...
  20. 3 months out and I eat cottage cheese and vegetables almost everyday for lunch.... Dinner too sometimes. It's easy on the tummy.
  21. When that happens to me the only way I feel better is to sort of force myself to throw up.... It's the worst but helps so much. Feel better soon!
  22. Tomorrow will mark my 3 month surgaversary and I am down 63 pounds. I'm 5'9 and my surgery day weight was 277. Everyone keeps asking when I will stop and I'm not really sure. What has everyone else's experience been like? My goal is to lose 100 in a year but seems like I'll hit that mark much quicker... Or no?

  25. I have found that my tolerance hasn't changed much. The hangover however is so much worse!!! And thanks for being honestly in your post, some people claim to be perfect on this site. I drink vodka and water with a splash of crystal lite liquid in it. Just FYI. I would say 2 of those will do the trick

  28. I'm 9 weeks post op and still never feel full. I just eat until I'm not hungry anymore. Usually about 4 ounces. It's totally hard but trust me, you'll get the hang of it. I've already lost 50 pounds! Hope that gives you some encouragement.. It's all so worth it.
