  1. Being a newbie, I really appreciate this advice.
  2. I need a better playlist for workouts. Any suggestions??? I'm not really into the really explicit music.
  3. Just wondering if there's anyone from Michigan on here. I have meet alot of people on here but most are from other states.
  4. Good luck!!!! Remember positive thoughts...
  5. That's just like hubby. Just don't get it he doesn't gain any weight, but I love our date night/ penny date.
  6. Are you going through this process alone?? Even with the surgery being completed it's still a process, any support at home??
  7. How are you doing?? Did it get any better better?? Hopefully it did
  8. Well I'm only taking a chewable calcium and a chewable multivitamin from celebrate. Not the best but it doesn't make me sick.
  9. I agree, I watched the show but eventually stopped. The trainer's were always pushing them too hard. These people wanted help to lose weight now to be made fun of. At one point I even wanted to go on the show because I was so desperate to lose weight. Glad I didn't it would have done more damage than any good.
  10. I work with all females and I get it, but once you kill them with kindness they will leave you alone. I was lucky and have been off for 6 weeks so my food would be normal so to speak when I go back this week. Sometimes when I don't want to answer the neverending questions I just eat lunch in my car for fresh air.
  11. So are you going to have the bypass now?? I think you should do whatever is best for you no matter what they think.
  12. I stayed in the hospital for a day. Insurance cleared me for 3 days just in case. I would not have left the day of the surgery, way to much pain.
  13. So I was just wondering if anyone has had a weight gain early on? In the last 2 weeks I have gained 3 lbs. Not sure if this is normal, I have moved back on to eating normal now. Just 2 days ago, I can't poop, not sure if I should bump up my workouts or not. Is it okay to gain a little??
  14. I'll up my protein too to see if that works. Like you I'm drained hopefully this works.
  15. I was hoping it would be better next month. Well this surgery better be worth it!!!
  16. I use pads. Going to get some overnight pads. I bleed through the tampon so I stopped using them. Hopefully this will be the only time I have to deal with this. Thanks for your response.
  17. I had my surgery on 3/20, on the day of my surgery I was already on my period. This would be the first one since. I have always had really heavy miserable ☹️ periods. This on here is something I have never had. So far this morning I have had to change clothes twice and only been up for about 2 hours. I have large blood clots, cramps out of this world. And have to reclean the bathroom every time I go because of the blood. Any suggestions??
  18. I'm still having a really hard time getting in all my protein any suggestions. Please anything will help.
  19. Thanks I will be a little more positive. Learning curve like no other. Good luck with everything.
  20. I'm not sure about the beans. I'm going to try it again tonight that way I know for sure. Are you eating to much?? I think I did yesterday that's why I felt sick. So today I did 2 oz instead of 4.
  21. Thanks. Alot of people are losing at a different date I see.
  22. What are you doing to lose so much. I was sleeved March 20 and I'm down 20 lbs.. just wondering what I can do different.
  23. Yeah I think my eyes got bigger than my new stomach. I'm going to do the 2 oz every 4 hours going forward. Learning process
  24. Thanks. I think I'm going to try the 2 oz. I really think I ate to much.
  25. Hello everyone just wondering when you switched over to the puree stage did you feel sick. I'm doing the 4 oz, and I was able to eat about 1 1/2 scrambled egg. I made 2. Eating every 2 hours is just impossible to me right now. I'm not hungry and still full from the eggs. I tried to eat some refried beans and I just couldn't. The smallest thing gets me worried now.
