do you feel restriction? I would focus on water and protein first and foremost. I am surprised that you would eat that much tuna tettrazini but everyone is different. I don't think that your caloric intake is too much. I would reach out to nutritionist and see what they think.

I am so sorry for your loss, I would look into therapy for help if possible for assistance.

I add unflavored protein to my oatmeal and zero calorie flavored syrup to make it worth it

I am about 7 months out and I find that I need to eat more frequently to prevent hunger (genuine with stomach growling), however I find that I am snacking on things that are not protein rich and then not meeting my protein goals. Any ideas for snacks? both naturally occurring protein and bars, snacks, foods that I can purchase. Thanks!

I am a nurse who started her career in the OR and now works in ER and it was very difficult for me to not see every complication possible happening to me. Ultimately, I have no regrets. Had no complications and have lost 130 pounds. Research the surgeon you choose, their support and details of the program as well as resources. Ask other patients how their experience was with that surgeon. When I went for my consult, the surgeon started in on his VERY low complication rate and well developed plan and I said, you don't have to sell me, I've already done my research on you! Good luck!! I have more energy, get more done, spend time with my family. I'm a better person, mom, wife and nurse. I would it again tomorrow.

I have found that using flavored syrups in protein shakes, oatmeal, yogurt etc helps with cravings. I add unflavored protein and maple bourbon pecan skinny syrup. my daughter likes the peanut butter cup flavor. Idealfit has many flavor offerings for protein powder and I also looked into bariatric foodie's protein shake cookbook, available on amazon as it has recipes for ice cream, shakes and desserts. Good luck!

ya'll are adorable

initially your sips of liquid after surgery will have to be VERY small or cause pain. Practice not chugging beverages or taking large gulps.

more energy and sorry if TMI, better intimate relations. it just feels different.

Looking for recommendations to attempt to prevent as much facial wrinkling as possible. I have been overweight my whole life and honestly had enough cheeks to prevent wrinkles from showing. As I lose weight I notice that my skin is dry, pores are large and wrinkles are developing. I have also noted viewing success stories pictures that they appear older after losing weight, no offense to anyone. It is a small prices to pay for being healthier but just wondering what has helped or worked for others. Thanks!

I've lost 100 lbs total since highest weight and can still wear my 26 jeans which were tight when at my highest. they are now loose at the waist but I have big legs so they are fine there. I also can't really go to a store and try things on right now due to the pandemic so just holding tight.

I had a health scare with a swollen lymph node and my husband very kindly brought up that he was concerned that masses or additional lymph nodes may be swollen and unnoticed due to my size. That's when I decided to start the process.

you can buy the pastas on amazon

I use genepro

I can't do ANY white bread, it makes me sick. I have done whole wheat bread, protein pasta, chickpea and cauliflower pasta occasionally with no issues. Also, wheat tortillas for wraps.
