  2. I have Hair,Skin, & Nails, from itworks... it's AMAZING! It has Biotin in it plus other great natural ingredients. one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
  3. I've been so worried about that too. I found that itworks wraps are totally amazing with tightening and toning skin, and an It works supplement called hair,Skin, and Nails. They have both been amazing!!! one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.

  8. Hey y'all. This journey has been, insanely crazy (in a good way). My weightless started really low. At least for what I thought it would be. I started jogging/walking about 3 weeks ago, and I've been so happy with the results. I have now lost 47 lbs from my weight right when I started my 10 day pre-op diet and 31.6 since surgery. It's been almost 2 months. I feel so energetic, and amazing!!! one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.

  15. My face comparison. one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
  16. So I weighed myself today, and I have lost 38 lbs from my highest weight in 7 weeks 5 days. I did a face comparison, and I'm really starting to see a difference. I was 283.8 at my HW and 245.8 today. one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
  17. Sorry, the BMI question was meant for ChooChi73. She was unhappy with her weight loss so far and I just wondered if maybe she started with a lower BMI so didn't lose the weight as quickly as somebody that maybe had a higher BMI. Sorry for any confusion Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App Sorry, I didn't realize that question was for me. No, my BMI was 46 on the day of surgery. My highest BMI was 48.5 one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.

  19. I'm a little over 5 weeks post op. I have lost 20.2 lbs since surgery and 35.2 since pre-op diet. I feel like my weight loss is so slow compares to others. I am on soft foods, and can eat about 2 Oz at a time. I've already had 2 stalls. It's a little discouraging at times. one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
  20. Don't fret the 5 lbs...you still have a long span of losing. Do you feel so much better now that your pumped full of Fluid? Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App Yes! I feel great! I'm not getting tired anymore going up the stairs. I'm eating again and the hives are mostly gone. Also, I think I've begun I feel hunger. Like my stomach is about to growl, but it never does. It's weird.Yes, that is a weird feeling. I get that way too. I feel a lack of energy when it's time to eat. I wonder if it's a blood sugar thing. one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.

  22. I had a stall after about 1 weeks 2 days out, and before that I weighed everday. The stall lasted about a little less than 2 weeks. Now I only weigh myself once a week, otherwise I'd go crazy and be super depressed. one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
  23. @"lindsey skinner abbott" and @"yescres07" so sorry you two have had to go through this. Did your surgeon put you on any blood thinners. I was taking Coumadin for 2 1/2 weeks post op. one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
  24. Oooo, what is it?Broccoli Cheddar, sorry forgot to add that lol. one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
  25. I splurged and got Panera today. Brought it home put it in my blender and added unflavored Protein powder. It's delish! one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
  26. How many oz is everyone eating per meal at this point? one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
  27. Hi Sean... I'm with you!! I started phase 3 on Thursday. Since I can't have enough Protein with food. I drink my protein for breakfast. From 8am-12pm I sip my protein shake. 64 grams of protein and about 17 ounces of liquid. Then I begin my Water. I have the water throughout the day. I have something for lunch usually 4 ounces that I space out in an hour. So far these last 3 days I've had, mashed potatoes, yesterday, refried Beans and today I had cottage cheese. All three were about 6-8 tbsp. I don't know when I'm full yet because I don't know what it feels like. My brain wants to keep eating but I stop myself at 8 tbsp. For dinner I sip on some soup that I had already prepared during phase 2. This way, I have the full 64 oz of liquids AND my protein. It's so hard to decipher when I'm full because I don't feel it yet. But I do feel that I'm not hungry. I hope this helped a bit. I will be starting my phase 3 in a few days. Do you have to have the beans, eggs, or cottage cheese pureed? one step at a time, one sip at a time, one pound at a time.
