  1. Thanks Julia..I think my main mistake was eating solid foods too fast. I started incorporating solid foods after about 2 weeks after surgery, and that is when my weight loss has stopped ever since. On a typical day I eat too many carbs, and since I am not the greatest cook, all of my meals are based on having a carb dish on the side or having my protein mixed in with my carbs such as hamburger helper (as we had the other night)...It's like, I know what i am doing wrong, but cooking is my hardest challenge on top of school and everything else. The past week I have been cooking healthy, but i need more spice in the kitchen department lol..i'll learn eventually i guess. As for exercise, I go on the treadmill for 20 minutes, on an incline at 2.3mph..i go on whenever i can usually on a daily basis but not for the past 2 days.
  2. Hello, I am almost 2 months out of surgery and have lost 13lbs. I have had several suggestions and opinions as to why I may be at a plateau already and they all make sense, possibly eating too many carbs, not getting enough veggies in etc. I am going in for my first fill on September 3rd and I definitely need it. I am just asking for a second opinion, has anyone hit a plateau this early on in their journey, and if so did the weight loss start up again once they got their first fill? What types of meals did you guys eat almost 2 months out of surgery..i am not the greatest cook so ideas would be great...thanks =/
