  1. I did the biotin and mine is falling out currently. I don’t think that there is really all that much you can do to prevent it. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 200.6
  2. I hit four months next week and looking back at my food logs I average between 750-850. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 202.0
  3. 12.85 for this week for me. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 202.0
  4. Congrats! We had surgery same day. It’s so exciting seeing someone else doing great. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 202.0
  5. 201.0 for me this morning HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 202.0
  6. I've just been very vigilant about following the guidelines my nutritionist set for me. When I've had something off plan it's only been a bite or two and it still always falls in my day's carb and calorie goals. I've been able to get my minimum protein and water goals since day three. I didn't take up exercising until two months post op when I was cleared for swimming. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 202.0
  7. 11.2 for this week HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  8. You could also freeze Greek yogurt for later eating. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  9. Amazon has travel funnels that hold protein powders and make it easy to add to bottled water. I put my syntrax nectar in that to travel. I only got the travel pouches to see which flavors I actually like. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  10. 206.0 HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  11. I'm only three months and I'm going to have quite a bit of loose skin. I have been overweight for years plus have had two kids. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  12. I have PCOS, but had the RNY. My weightloss has been excellent. At 3 months out, I have already lost 47% of my excess body weight. My endocrinologist was very pleased and my hormone levels, A1C are at goal. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  13. I only did 2.5 miles. Definitely need to pick it back up this week. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  14. Thank you! I feel great. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  15. Down at total of 85. Almost fifty since day of surgery. I'm amazed what a difference there is from this time last year. The black dress was exactly a year ago and the teal one is from the end of April. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  16. 208.0 HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 207.4
  17. 12.3 for this week HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 209.2
  18. 209.2 today HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 212.8
  19. I'm three months post op today and have PCOS. My weightloss so far has exceeded my surgeons expectations. My endocrinologist was really happy with my progress so far too. She just checked my hormone levels and wants to compare them again in three months. So far I've been following the diet plan and just started exercising again a couple of weeks ago. Total lost is 83lbs, 60 since the preop liquid diet. I'm hopeful my hormone levels will be in normal ranges by this time next year so I can go off my two meds that help control them.

  20. Maybe you need the electrolytes HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 212.8
  21. 13.75 miles for this week HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 212.8
  22. I had glue on my incisions. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 212.8
  23. I looked it up online the other day. I get plenty of fluids and I get orthostatic hypotension (it causes the dizziness when standing). Apparently it's pretty common for post wls patients. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 212.8
  24. I need to eat 150-200 extra calories on days I swim. I generally swim laps for about an hour. If I don't eat those extra calories I gain a little weight. When I eat them I drop faster than not working out at all. HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 212.8
  25. 212.8 HW-292 • SW (6/29/17) 256.6 • CW 219.8
