    tabula got a reaction from Afry in The scale hasn't went down in 3 days [emoji57]   
    Absolutely, I was dropping lbs like it was my job then for like 3 days nothing and I was so upset. I just stuck with the program and weighed 2 days later and I had dropped 4lbs.
    I wouldn't consider 3 days a stall, but sounds like stalls do happen and it's just a part of the process.
    As you progress clearly important to follow the guidelines and track your consumption.
    I think you'll power through, don't be discouraged. I weigh every 3 or 4 days so I see bigger movements and weigh at the exact time everyday so it's comparable.
    After a few weeks of getting used to everything I couldn't be happier, total.game.changer!
    Good luck!

    tabula got a reaction from MSinger in One week out   
    That's awesome, congrats on the great start. I'm a little over 5 weeks out and I don't know any tricks but as I'm sure you hear/read stick to your surgeons plan. Seems like a lot of trial and error on foods you can eat comfortably. Small bites and chew chew chew is legit, my stomach tells me right away when I don't do that.
    I really like cottage cheese with canned no sugar added peaches. To get Water, i have a bottle with 64oz in it, so I know I have to drink that before the day is over. I use MyFitnessPal to log everything and focus on the amount of grams of Protein, Carbs and Fat and don't pay attention to the calories.
    One thing I've found is there is a delay in how full your stomach gets so go very slow, I ate a kids applesauce pouch while working and just sucked it down in 5 minutes with ~3 ounces and I though for sure it was going to come back up and was painful. Takes time for your stomach to tell you it's full.
    Not sure that helps but good luck!
