There is a bit which says "edit profile"

Hi, Hope you're well, welcome and great news about your surgery. You have to use a computer to collate that section, it is in the top right section where the dropdown under your username is - it took me ages to figure it out!

Keep an eye on it and make sure you take iron supplements.

Hi, My Fitness Pal seems to be the most popular, I use it and it helps a lot.

Surely if you are in a calorie deficit then you will continue to lose weight until you reach maintenance.

Do you think it is because you have a lowered immune system and a runny nose is your body's defence? Try taking Vit C.

Thanks that's useful information.

You can identify as you wish and should be respected as such, however only cis women menstruate, not all cis women do but only cis women can.

Yes sure I agree, just wanted responses based on experience rather than mansplaining.

That is really helpful, I am thinking of getting the implant in my arm but ideally would not use anything hormonal.

Well done, you have to start somewhere! Keep it up!

I have made the decision to avoid white potato, I did try sweet potato mash (I too am approx. 5 week out) and it went down like a lead balloon, I was in agony. No potato for me, and to be honest, I don't really miss it.

I have always been a freezing cold person but when I got to my highest weight of 215.8lb I was always feeling hot, I was sweating loads and felt like I was always on fire. I am now down to about 190lb and I feel okay with a regulated temperature. I think as my weight decreases, this will change.

I have found not being able to drink with my meals really difficult, I have always drunk with my food as a means to wash it down. Not being able to drink for 30 mins after my meals leave me feeling thirsty and as if my food is stuck - perhaps I need to chew a lot more. Drinking before a meal makes me feel fuller quickly but also make me feel as if my food is stuck and not going down because of the liquid in my stomach.

Thank you so much for replying, I was very worried.
