I love Ocean Spray diet cranberry. It's 10 calories a glass. I put half a glass and then fill it up with Water and ice. It's very refreshing. They have other flavours which I also drink.

When I'm feeling unsuccessful or discouraged during a stall I ALWAYS refer back to this chart. This is average weightloss per time period and for your weight. Often, people compare their success with the success of someone 100 lbs heavier than them and feel like they are failing! It's going to different for all

Thank you. Seriously reading all these messages make me feel better

Very inspiring. Thanks for sharing. Would you share your program? How many calories & carbs? Did you eat Snacks?

No. your body is adjusting to the surgery. You are lucky not to be constipated as I was.

I put yogurt with milk in the blender and made a shake. I could use regular yogurt, not Greek cause it is too thick.

Excellent explanation. Hopefully it will prevent some people from risking their lives/health and a great guideline for those who don't seem to understand the protocol. It is not worth the risk.

I weigh meat. It should be 3 - 3.5 ounces. My plan says a meal should fit in 1 cup.

I was told not to worry about calories, especially early on. If you get in your Protein and liquids, you won't have any room left.
My nutritionist told me if I follow the nutrition plan caloric intake will be fine. However, I do track my calories and 10 weeks after surgery average about 800 a day.

It is normal to be nervous of surgery. However, it is a very safe, minimally invasive procedure. I had no pain and no complications. Wish I had done it a long time ago.

I didn't hav any pain at all. I didn't even need to take Tylenol. I did have intense reflux for two weeks but you can take something for that. Everyone is different so it's impossible to know how you will feel. You can manage the eating if you decide to go.

A hernia could be fixed at the same time as your bariatric surgery.

1. Weigh/ measure your food.< /p>
2. Carefully track your Protein no fluids.
3. Don't let Constipation go on too long because it can be very painful.
4. Don't compare your weight loss to others or expect it will be consistent.
5. Once you are on solids, try one new thing at a time.
6. If things just don't taste right, be patient. It gets better.
7. Eating out is manageable and others will not notice your eating.
8. It gets easier.

Smyleetn, maybe it was Milk of Magnesia. My doctor said it was ok.

I felt that way till about the 7th week. Then things got better. Nothing taste right. I couldn't comprehend how surgery on my stomach could affect taste but it did. Thankfully, everything is now back to normal.

Ducolax or lax-a-day are the same as miralax and can b bought in Canada.

My plan states 20 minutes for a snack and 30 for a meal. I always use a scale.< /p>

I only told 3 friends and 2 family members. Only 1 of them knew before the surgery. Although I knew everyone would be supportive, I didn't want to be the centre of attention and discussion. I did tell everyone I was working on weight loss with a nutritionist and that I've changed the way eat to 3 small meals and 2 Snacks each day.
