How Will This Thanksgiving Be Your Healthiest Yet?
Enjoying my first thanksgiving at my fiance's family. So excited. I don't even have to cook this year. I'm taking pie for them but it's pecan pie I can't eat and not crazy about anyways. Turkey and green Beans are what I'm having for dinner. Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App

Don't Want to Eat
I am 7 weeks out never hungry and full after two bites. I measure out my food and eat then 20 min later eat 2 bites. I know its not what we should do, but I'm worried if I don't get that if I don't get Protein in my hair will fall out.

Happy, sad, exhausted, totally emotional rant I fuess
I have always had hormone issues, low low progesterone. Never was that emotional "girly girl"but lately. Had a partial hysterectomy in June stage 2 cancer, but rny bypass was already in the works, pre op classes and monthly weight loss visits. Got the go ahead from cancer specialist in Sept. Rny October 3rd. I have lost 60 lbs total happy about that. No longer is my life food centered. Lately I am so hormonal though. I am over sensitive and cry at the drop of a hat. Not sad just goofy stuff. It's like I see me thinking crying about this is stupid yet cry anyways. Movies, things people say even positive, my favorite skirt fell off, still not sure if that was happy or sad tears. Exhausted. Even at my high weight 5 years ago 332. I could paint a room, cut the grass, active stuff not get tired, get lazy, but not tired. Now naps sound like the most wonderful thing in the world. Never was a nap person either. Is this what normal is? Please tell me it gets better? Sent from my 5054N using the BariatricPal App
