I am the same way! I can’t eat a whole lot at once but I will catch a tub of icecream being gone in a few days or a bag of chips gone in a single day. Your “chest,” unhealthy foods, just don’t keep them in the house. Don’t stock up on junk when it’s on sale because you will eat it. Denser Proteins like chicken, beef and meats keep me fuller a lot longer. If you have trouble digesting dry chicken breast like I do, try canned chicken. Much softer and sooooo good. And easy too. I also when I want to eat a lot, try and eat the healthy stuff on the plate and put more healthy stuff then the non healthy stuff so I don’t have room for the unhealthy. If you want ice cream, go to the store and get a small container, or a bag of chips at the checkout. Then you really want it because you went to the store for it versus going to the kitchen ❤️

Turkey sausage in the tube, tastes just like regular Breakfast sausage but without all the fat and calories. So good and lots of Protein. Best for is you are farther out on your weight loss journey, not just getting adjusted to solid foods. I also love string cheese lol, and canned chicken. It’s easy and soft and low calorie with lots of protein. Also Premier Protein shakes are the best!

Get a camel back Water bottle with the straw you have to bite down to drink water because you can sip all day and since you have to bite down on the straw no air ever gets in the straw ❤️

Buying clothes that aren’t in the plus size section or not buying the biggest size the store has and hoping it fits lol. This is the first time I’ve ever been able to wear a boyfriends clothing item and not have it be too small. Just cute and baggy. I love it!

Sounds like you're stuck in the starve-binge-cycle / dieting-loss-of-control-eating-cycle (again).
You might benefit from:
- staying away from stupid fad diets like pouch reset
- stop exercising as punishment for overeating
- eating foods you really like regularly to prevent loss of control eating
- reading the book Brain Over Binge
These are things you can try right away without being depended on other people / having to wait for appointments and that'll hopefully help.

We are all like the same! Surgery and pregnancy buddies. I’m at 5 weeks, I’m so worried about losing the baby, I already love her/him. I am so happy I have found this!

I had a few questions. I am one-week post op tomorrow! I had a really rough first couple days, I had a blood clot in my hand and was allergic to all the pain medications. But now I am doing pretty well, I am home after 5 days in the hospital and two nights at a friends house, I have pretty good mobility and have finally gotten a good nights sleep! I did have some questions if any Gastric bypassers can help.
First of all, I would love some stage two liquid diet recipes, i got one more week and hate my Protein Shakes.
I am having a little hard time getting my Protein in. I know it's only week one, any suggestions? I think I might meet my goal today, I am trying very hard.
Also i am having a stretching pain on the right side of my belly button, I don't have an incision there, but that is where most my pain is. Just like a sharp kind of stretching pain. ANd a less sharp pain on the left side of my belly button. Is this normal? I just want to make sure I didn't give myself a hernia, trying to move somewhere or stand up.

I would appreciate all your help! I live alone with no family near by and I really appreciate this support system I am starting to build <3

Congrats ! you are so beautiful! Conratulations! you are so close to your goal weight!

Yes time is going by so quickly! My surgery is tomorrow ! Super nervous.. but i think everything will go well.

Thank you Emma93!
Yes time is going by.pretty fast. Can you believe it's already the 8th of July!😆

I have my surgery on Monday the 10th! Maybe we could message each other and I could tell you how mine went and how I felt. I don't have a boyfriend or family where I am at so I will be doing it by myself for the most part with friends stopping by, so hopefully, everything will be okay. Congratulations!

It is your choice and your body, you do not need to explain anything to anyone. But! Just always say on Facebook "hitting the gym," or pictures of healthy food. Sign up for a 10k or sprint triathlon (even if you do not end up doing it) just tell people "Ya I am training for this sporting event and the weight is just falling off!" Just say I am on the Keto diet and only drink green tea. I told my co-workers which is true, that I am having surgery to fix my debilitating acid reflux that was causing my esophagus to develop pre-cancerous cells, and fix a hernia, so I just say everything without saying "gastric bypass," and I just mention that they are taking part of my stomach to help with the reflux.
