  1. I stopped losing weight a few weeks ago. I guess I need to join the gym again. Sigh. I hate exercising.

  13. I like Burger King's grilled chicken burger with a bit of ketchup, lettuce and pickles. The entire burger is 16g Protein 2g carbs 11g fat.

  17. I've been taking Biotin since before my surgery, and I'm getting more than the recommended amount of Protein every day, but about 3.5 months after my surgery my hair started falling out like it never has before. I have curly hair that needs to be detangled and am losing handfuls a day. I scheduled an appointment with my stylist to get it cut so I don't need to detangle so much.
  18. I had one about 2 years ago from high oxalic acid. I was told by my urologist to drink Crystal lite brand lemonade since they add extra citrate to it, which helps break down my type of stone. Believe it or not, what I think helped lead to my stone was drinking a lot of non-sugar iced tea. Tea has a lot of oxalates. So I've quit the tea and moved on to lemonade and orange flavored Water.
  19. I've lost 90 lbs, and only in the past 2-3 weeks have I noticed an actual change in my appearance and how my clothing fits. But, I have about 150 left to lose. I started big. I do still feel fat. My back doesn't hurt all the time anymore, and it's easier for me to fit on small furniture and to get up from a deep couch. Little victories all the time!
  20. I'm now 12 weeks out and my loss has slowed. Maybe I'm not exercising enough?
  21. I'm three months out. I like meatballs! I make them with turkey.
  22. My roommates and I are having a party for St. Patrick's day/ my birthday, and I want to make a dish I and my significant other can eat. She can't have any dairy. I've been looking at recipes, but I can't find anything to make that both she and I can eat. (Someone else is already making corned beef). Help!
  23. I was sleeved on Dec. 3 sw 381, cw 333. My Snacks are ricotta cheese with a tiny bit of maple syrup for sweetness, 1/2 a think thin high Protein bar, Quest chips, babybel light cheese, cauliflower, mushrooms and or cucumber dipped in light dressing, turkey snack sticks like Nick's Sticks or an Epic Bar.
  24. The dough ball that forms in your stomach? The outside nutritionist I saw mentioned that to me pre-surgery, and I swear it's the only thing that's helped when I really really crave carbs. So, I choose to believe!
  25. For plain I like Fage 0%, it's very thick like sour cream; flavors I like Oikos triple zero they just came out with a few new ones like chocolate and salted caramel, the peach is great too.
  26. I lost 30 lbs my first month and only a few my second month. My nutritionist told me if I kept losing at the rate of a pound a day, I'd become malnourished. Our bodies need time to catch up, and I personally have noticed that when I'm not losing weight I am losing inches! I don't measure, but my clothing and body are telling the signs.
  27. I realized yesterday that I fit comfortably in the chairs at a doctor's office. No getting stuck anymore! That was always so embarrassing and painful. I have only lost a very few pounds in the past few weeks, but obviously my body has been shifting and shrinking. I can also no longer keep up 2 of my largest pair of pants. It took 75 lbs, but my clothes are finally starting to fall off!
  28. My stomach can't handle anything remotely hot/spicy. I tried to make pancakes with coconut flour, eggs and bananas and was miserable for quite some time. I think it was the bananas. I've been extremely lucky, I'm 10 weeks out and I haven't barfed since leaving the hospital!
