    Struggling to hydrate

    At that stage all liquids count. Soup, broth, jello etc. I had the same problem starting off. Some days is still a struggle. My surgeon tools me to concentrate on getting protein and the fluid intake will follow

    August bypassers/sleevers

    Lol. My 3 month follow up doc was grumpy. Blood work came back great. A1c back in normal ranges. Cholesterol back to normal range (1st time in 20yrs) blood pressure normal. My pcos symptoms....well still waiting to see. Had ablation in 2011. Last 3 months you'd never know it. Things have been heavy cycle wise. Will say pcos symptoms have gone opposite direction from no cycle to spotting etc last 2 months. Have follow up with gyn in couple weeks to either redo ablation or go on bc pills. Only 47 yr old I know with a tubal thinking about bc pills lol. Hair is just now starting to come out little faster but I've gone from 275 on 8/1 to 205 this morning so things are good!!
  12. I'm 4 months out. I get on average 700-800 calories a day. Some days more most days closer to 700. I'm just starting to get energy back. I'm still in bed by 9:30-10. Which presurgery never happened. My concern is when I start exercising full out how am I going to get more in and keep energy up. I exercise 3x wk doing cardio. Want to do Zumba and weights but that's going to eat up alot of calories lol

    Carbs

    I have my max at 50 carbs a day. I try not to go over 40. I'm very sensitive to carbs. Above 50 my weight loss slows dramatically

    Ladies: How has surgery affected your cycle?

    47. Had endometrial ablation done in 2011. Very light or nothing at all. Surgeon warned me could be heavy at first. That's an understatement!! I have pcos on top of everything else. First one 2 days post op. 8 days. Next month 7 days. Heavy from start to end. October 7 days then 8 days OK then spotting last 2 weeks now I think it's back again without having had stopped. So it's been 3 weeks now with only week break from time before. I had a tubal done work the ablation. Thinking about asking to go on birth control again this is driving me nuts!!!!
  19. I'm 3 months post op down 60lbs. First date last night. Another date Sat lol

    Watery Diarrhea?

    I started having issue about 2.5 months post op. It's been going for 2 weeks now. Surgeon told me if goes for a month then see a gastrointestinal. It's gotten a little better last day or so but not gone. Funny cause in the beginning I was having to take softeners

    Caffeine

    I've tried adding caffeine back. It causes very loose stools for me. Cut the caffeine out and I'm good. I used to drink a gallon of sweet tea every 2 days!!!!
