    Feeling down

    So I had my surgery 12/14/17, I started out at 356, before surgery I was down to 341 and currently at 301. I have seen others on here who have loss 50+ lbs and are down lots of clothes sizes, I have gone from 26 to 24 which is only in some pants, although shirt sizes I can wear some 3x-2x. Which is way better than 4x. I know my main problem isn't eating but exercising. But by the time I get off work, I am exhausted, and have no energy. Any advice is welcome.

    Non Scale Victories

    I had my surgery 12/14/17 and my non scale victory is: I'm down a shirt size, I can now shave my legs, I can but my arms around my back and touch my fingers, my face in thinner and I am starting to have a lap. A little disappointed that I haven't lost size in my pants. 🤔 SW: 356 BS: 341 Last Dr appointment 12/27/17: 321
  3. So Tuesday I go back to work since surgery 12/14. I am looking at the suggested eating pureed foods. I am a Parent Educator and drive to families homes all day. And now I am struggling with an example, the eggs I fix and wait 30 minutes before eating the second portion but they are cold. I can reheat at home but work, will be harder to reheat the foods, any ideas and food to suggest

    Only down 22lbs since surgery. Help!

    My mom paid for mine as well, I had to sign a contract with her, that if this fails, I have to pay it all back as well. But I feel the same way. Sleeved 12/14/17. I lost 15 lbs before surgery. But have only lost 18 lbs so far, I feel like I am failing as well. I have been walking on treadmill but only doing 75 kilometers. So I have picked it up and last night walked for 15 min and 230 kilometers.

    On the Struggle Bus

    I felt the same way at Christmas, all my favorite foods were out and I couldn't touch it. Watching everyone else eat was hard. But I ate Jello and just talked and spent time with my family. They are all very supportive. It was also first time weighing since surgery 12/14/17 and I have lost total 28lbs including the 15 before, so was excited. That helped a lot. When planning your food, add something you can have.
  7. I had my surgery last Thursday, everything has been going really smooth, I feel like I am ready to eat foods but sticking with liquid diet. Wednesday around 6pm, I nibbled at a tiny pecan, I spit it all out and washed out my mouth. Now I can't sleep, I feel like my stomach is tight and it keeps rumbling, did I just mess my stomach up?
