My team (Kaiser So Cal) says never. It has been 4 months since surgery, but 6 months since I've had real coffee. It kept me regular. Man, do I miss it!

Thank you! I know I will feel much better when I lose the JP tubes, drains, and binder. A real shower sounds absolutely heavenly right now

Today, I officially hit onderland! I will say that I feel a little bit like a cheat because while I was close, I had abdominal wall reconstruction surgery last week on 1/3/17. I was in the hospital for 5 days and really couldn't eat more than liquids for almost a week. Although I'm back to solids, I'm at about a 1/4 cup right now. I'm trying to hit my Protein and Water goals daily, but it's a struggle with this newest surgery. Everything makes me sick :-/

Get better!Monday weight 214.5 and I'm so happy! Didn't make my goal, but with all these problems, I'm good with that.
Background info, this weigh in is done in the hospital after having a stricture opened and having numerous iv bags since Thursday for dehydration.
Finally going home today!

I will be able to fully respond to your question after my abdominal wall repair (giant hernia with 7 inches of my colon stuck in it) after 1/3/17. :-/

I take Miralax and stool softeners daily. Have been to the ER three times since surgery with this problem. All three times, thought I had a bowel obstruction - I did not. The last time was just a couple of weeks ago. I was told then, I will probably have to take Miralax and stool softeners for life. Oh, well.

Haha! Love it! How has it played into your weight loss? Do you think it helps or makes your weight loss slower? That's just my fear.I f*cking love cheese!!!!
I incorporate it into my "diet" when I'm tracking and when I'm not...
Yeah, that's right...
I f*cking love it!!!!

I eat it daily! I love cheese. I do eat in moderation and I go for the really tasty cheeses so I can enjoy the taste, with just a bite :-)

Thank you! You will get there - we have a great tool helping us out :-). Happy New Year!Great job! I can only dream of being down so much so quickly. My surgery was on 11/22 and on 4/29 I'll be having my wedding reception for our one year anniversary (it was too rushed when we got married so no time). I would love to be down that much! Keep up the great work!

Way to go!! That's awesome! What have you been doing/eating to achieve that amount of weight loss?

I've stayed on the plan set by my surgeon and nutritionist. As far as meals, I eat high Protein and keep my carbs under 20 grams a day - sugars under 5 grams. I try to keep the fat down, too. I weigh or measure everything and keep my cals below 800. No sugar, no flour, no starches (except Beans - occasionally), no refined carbs. My carbs are from veggies.
I also make sure I walk at least 5 miles a day and I'm starting the couch to 5k program. I'm starting weight training soon, but I'm having surgery again on 1/3/17 (if you look really closely on the right side of my photo, you can actually see my huge hernia bulging out ;-/). I'm not allowed to lift yet, but as soon as I get the green light, I'm ready to start weight training.
Lastly, I track every nibble, lick, and bite to make sure I'm staying in my guidelines :-)
