Very well said, frankie'sgirl. I will add one thing to this. Find something constructive to replace a food addiction. Run, swim, take up a sport like tennis, cycling, something that replaces the void left when we give up food as a comfort item.

No hunger after surgery...how to I know the right amount to eat? Enjoy the no hunger part. it doesn't last forever and is a perk of the surgery. I don't get very hungry and I'm 9 months post op. Make sure you are tracking what you take in and meet your nutritional goals that i hope your weight loss center or surgeon gave you. As long as you meet your goals, you're fine. http://BariatricPal.com/index.php?/topic/373808-No-hunger-after-surgery%2E%2E%2Ehow-to-I-know-the-right-amount-to-eat%3F/page__view__findpost__p__4225563

I think I may have a problem, I eat Sriracha sauce on everything now!

a little side note on flax seed, our body cant process the whole seed, so either grind it our get the ground. i eat flax seed and chia seeds in my yogurt.

ive logged in myfitnesspal now for 250 days straight. couldnt go without it now.

my first thought is possibly mild dehydration. are you getting all your water in each day?

Did my first triathlon today, it was kind of a practice one leading up to the big one I'm doing in August. I really enjoyed it today. I wanted to finish under an hour, finished in 53 minutes!

Oops, wasn't done there yet. I drink a couple glasses of milk a day, which is an easy Protein consumption because you are drinking it. Also like someone else said, pound for pound you can't beat shrimp. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Think 90 is tough? I am training for a triathlon and my requirement is 150! Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App

Frankiesgirl hit it. I had back pains while loosing as well. My physical therapist said it is because of my posture correcting itself quickly, my muscles aren't used to it. Stretching and exercise helps. Sent from my SM-N920V using the BariatricPal App
