Do you miss being overweight?
GreenTealael replied to Marissa37's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I almost forgot about breaking plastic chairs at gatherings, don't miss that at all -
Yup avoiding it like the plague. I was drinking and eating things off the full liquid diet back to back with no waiting period. Asked my surgeon and we figured it out
-
Which is why I was soooooo upset in my dream
-
Actually for me it causes diarrhea Found this out in full liquid soft phase cross over period when I didn't quite understand the rules [emoji24]
-
I'm motivated now!
-
Im worried about breaking this rule by accident for sure because I follow it 100% and I refuse to come this far and not follow through So tense maybe some stress
-
Oh glad it's not just me

Where are these trolls coming from?
GreenTealael replied to goldenbarbie's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Sigh This seems like a lot of personal attacks on a person no one on here knows Text on a screen doesn't always indicate tone IRL And that's a two way street There is always the option of not responding , blocking or even reporting a post that is unfavorable -
Drink more water and wait

What was your favorite food before surgery??
GreenTealael replied to 2feelinggreatagain's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Bread. And not sliced bagged bread. I loved artisan baked loaves, honey glazed rolls, egg washed challah, tandoori roti, nut and fruit filled croissants in Paris, bourbon blazed squares in Spain , etc etc. But it was an affair that could not last... -
I'm with you on this
-
I'm in the same boat as you and I only can break them by drinking more water. Please share if you find a way that works for you
-
Just seems like I'm always stalled ! I drop two pounds then stall for two weeks (exaggerating but only a little )
-
You'll be there in no time!
-
I agree
-
Broke down and purchased a food scale, I'm a minimalist and hate having unnecessary items. But I realized that I really needed to weigh my food to the oz. I find that now there's more accountability when it comes to logging my macros instead of eyeballing it. Anyone else using a food scale? All the time? Occasionally?

I bought a weighted jump rope to work out at home. I jump in time to music When I do go to the gym which is rare I tend to warm up on the treadmill then do a few machines.
-
Hit another stall, sigh
-
I didn't have a preop period diet, I just had to follow the NUT plan until the day before then just clear liquids and then nothing at all the night before surgery
-
Increase water intake

Drinking with straw
GreenTealael replied to shsd87's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I say do whatever keeps you hydrated -
Drinking with straw
GreenTealael replied to shsd87's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I drink with a straw against my NUTs advice ( causes gas because of it, which was not a good enough reason for me to abstain, and i don't get gas) It's the only way I drink cold liquids -
But I think your method of virtually screaming at people and your use of sarcasm and verbal sparring will not win friends nor influence people. Totally agree, Tone of the conversation was distasteful at best
-
Normal, happened to me also. Instead of weighing yourself talker body measurements Contact your surgeon and nutritionist if it lasts longer than 3 weeks
