  9. I wouldn’t. Seems like a tough risk for a craving . See if you can find an alternative HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 184 5’6”
  10. That’s good keep that up! For me the shower and moving around ASAP was key. Try not to veg HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 184 5’6”

  12. Check with your Dr. I didn’t have to do purée and was able to go from liquid to soft . HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 184 5’6”
  13. Mostly fell off- peeled almost all the way off. I helped the rest of the way [emoji51] HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 184 5’6”
  14. You’ll need to move just to get that gas out! No other way :/ You’ll do great! See you on other side! HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 184 5’6”
  15. Was really an easy process for me ... recovery was a breeze other than getting in water (and the gas pain for two days after surgery). I can’t even consider eating breads and high sugar / fat but otherwise eating has been really great All the best ! It’ll be awesome and just fine HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 184 5’6”
  16. You’ve got this.... you’re here and focused! HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 185 5’6”
  17. Some say Helen Hunt HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 185 5’6”
  18. I agree with Matty...that sounds like a lot of food which is maybe what is making her not feel well. I think she should be at like 2-4 oz MAX of food every 3 or 4 hours. Agree with others around fluids...everything liquid counts! so dont just count water. Im just over 3 months out and I still struggle with fluids..... also agree that sugar free popsicles are the BOMB and save my life. But my nutritionist says 2 max a day so 10 is a lot. Good luck...keep coming on this site. Call the Nutritionist if you feel you need to.
  19. Youre so focused....youll beat that "average" loss. Keep up the hard work, youre doing amazing!
  20. Same here! I easily eat 4-5 ounces of protein plus veggies with no issues and don't really feel "full" either. BUT the weight seems to be coming off just fine so maybe Im just being a freak about it. I think its the listening to others experiences where they are full after 1-2 bits and here I am eating like 3/4 cup or more. I see my NUT next week so Im asking then but in the meantime I feel like I should be restricting myself more....so Im with you on that
  21. My hips hurt sleeping on my side now ! Haha good problems.... HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 185 5’6”
  22. Awesome! Congrats! HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 186 5’6”
  23. Hi! Thanks Yes but only a couple times a week unfortunately . I need to do better there! I’m being super strict otherwise though! HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 186 5’6”
  24. Gas pain right after — felt like a ton of bricks in my chest. Walking is only thing that helped HW 242, SW 236- (Bypass 12/20/17) GW#1- 199 [emoji736] (2/11/18) GW#2- 175 CW 186 5’6”
