I thought alcohol was forbidden for a year?! [emoji15]. I’m afraid to even think about it during this rapid wl phase HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 180 [emoji736] (4/2/18) GW#3- 160 CW 174 5’6”

My husband equated it to death. I still have it somewhat and I’m 4 months out. [emoji849]? It’s essentially ketosis—- aka rapid fat loss HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 180 [emoji736] (4/2/18) GW#3- 160 CW 174 5’6”

Gave up coffee and all caffeine before surgery and am planning on staying caffeine / coffee free! I feel so much better without it. I do drink caffeine free herbal tea now though ... for me I like hot water now so i helps with water intake!

If you’re not lifting you should be ok after 5-7 days HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 180 [emoji736] (4/2/18) GW#3- 160 CW 174 5’6”

Congrats to you both! Curious— what volume are you eating per meal? Ie 4 oz Vs half a cup or are you at more? Sometimes I feel like I’m eating too much volume per meal HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 180 [emoji736] (4/2/18) GW#3- 160 CW 174 5’6”

Remember that starting weight plays into amount lost and how fast. You sound like you’re doing just great- don’t worry! What diet have you been on that you’ve lost over 4 pounds in a week?!

Just went to the 99 for lunch. They were just plain turkey tips with some cucumber dill sauce on side. Didn’t eat more than a bite of the quinoa and didn’t touch the grilled pita it comes with.

Hi! Other months have a Wednesday weigh in where they post their stats for the week or whatever on their mind.... there is nothing for us December people so I’m starting one!

Just had some turkey tips- yum! It’s hard to pass up the other stuff that comes with an entree though - for me anyway! HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 180 [emoji736] (4/2/18) GW#3- 160 CW 174 5’6”

Usually 30-50 here— but not intentionally tracking carbs but it’s in my journal app. Happens to be aligned with the protein meals Im eating HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 180 [emoji736] (4/2/18) GW#3- 160 CW 174 5’6”

I had that early on when I first started eating solid foods. It gets better. You’re eating too big of bites and too fast HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 180 [emoji736] (4/2/18) GW#3- 160 CW 174 5’6”
