@2Bsmaller18: I'm 10m post op, so a little further out than you, but I am a verrrrrrry slow eater. These days I normally take about an hour to eat a full on meal (which is way faster than the 90 mins it used to take me). Hard to say volume-wise as I eat ALOT of salad greens and I normally use weight vs volume to track. But to get an idea, here's what I fixed for myself to eat for my first meal today (I ate about 2/3 of it in just a little over an hour and will eat the rest in a couple more hours): 29g spinach leaves + 24g romaine lettuce + 23g carrots + 17g cucumber + low-cal vinaigrette 29g walnuts 118g pan fried chicken P.S. I probably eat slowly more out of habit than necessity now though, but I will still get foamies/barfies/pain if I eat too much too fast.

Intermittent Fasting Daily Menu/Results/Accountability
ms.sss replied to FluffyChix's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Actually the time when I was 120-127 I was all in panic mode about losing too much weight, so it wasn't a very celebratory time I am in a sooooooo much better place now and the number on the scale is not as all-consuming in my mind as it was before. Even though I'm lower now, I cool with it cuz I think I look awesome and more importantly I FEEL awesome (yeah, I know, I'm so full of myself its disgusting π...but I'll take it) -

I crossed out my original goal of 120 and replaced with 127 in mine.... -
Wow, the diff between your profile pic and this pic is awesome. Your weight loss is totally showing. P.S. Love the shoes

Agreed. The black jeans are especially totally working for you. Make your legs look like they go on for days...

I googled it, and came up nada...whats is RBD ??? Are you and Mr. sharing the same brain this AM? That's exactly what he told me when I told him about my unsuccessful run attempt this morning. Plus he said today should have been a rest day (since I made an attempt yesterday)...so gonna upping the carbs/calories Sunday/tomorrow and down a protein drink (and possibly a coffee) pre-run on Monday morning. Ooooh, I love experiments...π

Bought a bag of beans during vacay and just can't stop from reaching for it and fixing multiple cups for myself in the mornings (which btw, I am currently drinking my SECOND cup as we speak this AM...) Yesterday's Menu: Totals: 1603 cals - 117g protein - 35 NET carbs - 100g fat 8:30 to 12:30pm (6 cals) 3 black coffees w/ Β½ packet of Stevia each 1:10pm (335 cals) salad greens w/ low-cal vinaigrette 87g pan fried chicken 27g chicharron 2 tbsp white vinegar 3:20pm (306 cals) 125g cottage cheese 1 fl oz pumpkin seeds 20g blueberries 1 tbsp almond butter 5:30pm (123 cals) salad greens w/ low-cal vinaigrette 62g pan fried chicken 6:30pm (347 cals) 50g crispy pork belly 4 fl oz red wine 9:00pm (486 cals) salad greens w/ low-cal vinaigrette + 20g carrots + 20g cucumber Β½ fl oz pumpkin seeds 35g whole cashews 25g crispy pork belly 27g beef jerky Yesterday's Exercise: 3k run + 3k walk (so yeah, my 10k run ability seems to be a strictly group thing.

Ok, so about 15-20 lbs ago, my mon pubis stuck out like how @mousecat88 described above...when I wore fitted pants or dresses, it looked like I was packing something down there. Especially from the side view. Now, however its alot less "sticky-outy", to the point that it doesn't even bug me anymore (my butt is a different story altogether, though). But yeah, if you don't have any more weight to lose, most likely the only way to address is it with a tummy tuck and possible lipo on the mons pubis area....

@danieocean, it was bugging me for a bit, but now I know who you remind me of: a skinnier, hotter, Lady STARK (a.k.a. Sophie Turner). QUEEN OF THE NORTH ! (sorry, is my dork showing? LOL)

lol, yeah its carbonated immediately after surgery I could only stand very warm to hot water. this lasted about 3-4 months. then my preference switched to ice cold still water for another couple months. nowadays I like ice cold sparkling/carbonated water....and sometimes I'll put a couple drops of Stevia-sweetened "water enhancer" for flavour...which I'll chug, of course. But oh, the burping afterwards!

oooh i like this one on you, more fitted and funkier π you know, just for kicks maybe try on a really fitted (read: TIGHT) dress/outfit...and you will see how amazing you look.

The good news is: My boobs have shrunk so much that I can go bra-less quite comfortably. The bad news is: My boobs have shrunk so much that I can go bra-less quite comfortably.

I normally take the following, in order of desperation: Benefibre or Chia Pudding daily, no matter what Clearlax/Miralax daily after 2-3 days of a poop no-show MOM after a week Senkot-S and suppositories when MOM produces nothing after 2 days I've been away for a week so I had no access to any of the above, but given that today is day 7, its MOM tonite so crossing my fingers...
