Kearner

All such great ideas !! And I love cheese too!! I just started eating jerky - what a god send! I've been munching on Chex mix lately and I know I should be! I'm not really eating too much but I know I need to increase my protein!

Anyone have any good ideas for snacks ? Preferably ones that are quick and don't need to be cooked ! Also any suggestions for a website that has recipes ? I need some inspiration!!

Hi everyone ! I know there are some typical times when stalls happen after surgery. I had one at about 4 weeks and it lasted a few weeks! Now I am just coming up on 4 months and I have been fluctuating between the same 4lbs for at least 2-3 weeks. Is this another normal time? I'm so afraid I just STOPPED losing now ! Any info/ advice is welcome. Oh and my hair is falling out like crazy!! Anyone have special shampoos that seems to help ? Thanks !!

I feel deathly ill when I eat some foods at times - and other times the same foods don't make me as sick. I was just wondering if it was because of the sugar content in my body at the time Ect.... for example - I snuck a small scoop of peanut butter and now feel horrible. Hot, shaky,stomach cramps, gassy, nauseous. Every. Ow and again it happens and it usually happens with high carb or sugar foods but not high fat foods. Generally I eat well ( proteins and veggies ) but I have noticed this. Also, I think vitamins may upset me also??

How much sugar can you eat before you have a dumping episode ?

I had a bleeding ulcer also! One week out of surgery. It was very scary ! I became very sick I was also 3 days back in the hospital Like you ! I am now just 3 months out and feel much better. No issues with ulcers or gastric bleeding ! Weight loss has been steady! I'm Down 47lbs

Thanks for the heads up!!

Thank you! I was wondering about sugar free ice cream, being that it's summer time here and I have kids! I wonder about the ice cream stands and their no sugar added ice creams !!??!?

Hello everyone ! Hope all is well !!! I was looking for favorites/suggestions for something sweet ! I don't have many cravings and when I do - I try yogurt or sugar free fudgicle - but I am jut curious what else??? I am post gastric bypass

I don't know much about creatine ! A long time ago, when I was thin and working out a lot..... I had dizzy spells and went to the ER and when they ran my blood work I had abnormally high creatine - they admitted me for a few days to give me fluids/ meds I never really knew why it happened Wish you luck!!!

Meryline is right! If you ate a lot of carbs or processed foods - the salt and carbs will have you retaining water. You probably didn't gain anything, really ! 900 calories a day isn't all that much in my opinion!

Great job on all of your weight loss everyone [emoji1303]

Lol..... your totally right ! I don't really care that much..... but it makes me question my progress - which is dumb. I start thinking - hmmmm..... maybe I haven't changed yet. You know those head games?!?? I totally agree with you that weight is touchy - and that's probably it. And you are totally right about talking about it - it's almost easier when people don't say anything [emoji4]

I don't really mind at all...... but I think it's funny hardly anyone comments on my weight loss. I know the first pounds aren't really noticeable- but I've lost 43 lbs now ! Again, I'm not bothered by it- but it's strange because the very few people who have said something - say what a huge change !! How can that be when others don't even notice lol Anyone else have this happening ?

Thank you everyone!
