    TheMarine79 got a reaction from Recidivist in February 2019 weight loss buds   
    You can look at it that way. But what if you do not lose the weight. It could lead to heart attack or other health issues if we continued going down the same road. I do agree that it is a huge change mentally and physically. I am 40 years old. We have eaten one way for so long and now we have to do it another way.

    I would say I've had bouts of being frustrated and that, compounded with my day-to-day stresses that are just part of my life, have made me a bit more edgy and testy now and then. I don't think it's a permanent thing--more of a dealing with too much at once sort of thing and feeling overwhelmed.
    On a completely unrelated note, how do I start a new topic that goes just to our February group? When I want to click on start a new topic, it seems to go to the entire community. Not so savvy here.... Had I started a new topic, it would be to tell you all about a great alternative to bread I just discovered. I wanted something to spread my laughing cow cheese on or dip in an guacamole and black bean dip I made so I went on a search. I found this great option: https://www.outeraislegourmet.com/products/cauliflower-sandwich-thins. I just popped one in a toaster and got it a bit crispy, then spread the dip on it. I could eat about 3/4 of the round and about a Tblsp of the dip. Yummy!!! AND one thin is a full serving of veggies. I found them in the Gluten-free section of Wegmans after reading up on them online.

    Emz, last night was the first night I had a problem with this. I am still trying to get used my signs of when my stomach is full. I accidentally over ate and I got some foamy and spit up the applesauce I ate with it

    I just ordered a food scale to help prevent over eating. My eyes are way bigger than my stomach. I felt so bad because I ate a bit to much. I am learning that when I start to burp a little that I should probably stop. Recidivist you should try ricotta bake. Its yummy. This last week I dropped 4.5 pounds. I think I will continue do Protein Drink each day.

    I make sure to take a gas-x. I take one tablet each evening and this keeps me regulated. Since I started taking it, I am able to intake more Protein Shakes and more liquid each day.

    Has anyone noticed after being a week post op that one your appetite comes back. Not saying it is a bad thing. It just seems that my wife made pancakes for our kids and it smelled really good. It seems once you deprive your senses for a while, it comes back more sensitive
