Today I was way off on my Proteins. I'm so afraid of my hair falling out and my nails stop growing. I'm trying to really watch my Protein. I notice my lunch was really bad I only had 135 calories and 12 proteins. I'm going to have to start paying more attention, I'm tired of my Protein Shakes and I would rather eat something than to keep drinking the protein shakes. How are you ladies doing on getting your protein in? I also think I need to add more veg and fruit to the diet. I'm so confused on how to get every thing in but to stay within a certain calorie average.

Great job guys!

WooHoo Daisy!!! I'm so proud of you about your dress size. That is exciting news!!!

Thanks girl! It makes it feel this is all worth it. I've done Zumba.., it's a blast, and best of all, non judgmental. I just signed up for a belly dancing class in June.

Well I'll be honest... Today was horrible. Tried to have a BM this morning and was shaking, nearly blacking out and crying from the pain. Spent 6 hours in the ER, got an x ray, 4 rectal exams and 2 enemas, none Of which completely got rid of my bowel obstruction (impacted stools). They "broke it up" manually (incredibly painful) but still didn't all come out. I am mentally and physically drained. They sent me home suggesting hot liquids, tons of Water and stool softeners. I also bought Miralax. Praying it passes tomorrow but I know it will be painful.

All I had today was tea and juice. No exercise.

I really enjoyed zumba! I was always going the opposite way as every one else but it is lots and lots of fun. I had just posted to Natalie that I was wanting to find a zumba class again. You will diffently get a work out at zumba and it is a great time. Take a towel with you, you will sweat.

Thank you whymomwhy. Its been a rough couple days. After downing lots of Water, prune juice, as well as miralax this morning I was able to pass most of this evening but it hurt like heck. I am still having a lot of cramping and pain down there, so just drinking and resting.

I know I need to get back on my eating plan, exercise and Protein goal. i have felt so unwell I haven't eaten much. Tomorrow is a new day.

Breakfast - 4oz Vitamin Water w/ miralax, 4oz prune juice

lunch - 1/3 cup tilapia with salsa, 1/4 cup broccoli and Tomato

dinner - 3 pieces grilled shrimp (with garlic sauce), 1 broccoli spear

Didn't get any exercise in today.

Hope you all had a good day. I have noticed my eating habits have changed the past week. I have been burping a lot today while eating and feeling uncomfortably full just from 1/2 cup of food. A couple weeks ago I could 1 cup with no problem. Is this normal? Also.. spicy food is a no-no. I used to LOVE food spicy.

My sister is having a get together tomorrow and I volunteered to make the food so I can make it band-friendly. I am going to do chicken chili and lots of fruit/veggies.

Has anyone tried Diet Snapple? I found one that is 10 cal per bottle and 0 carbs... I am wondering if this is good choice? juice was one of my issues before so I am trying to find a healthier option.

Here is what I ate today..

Breakfast - 1/2cup yogurt, 1/4cup peaches

lunch - 1/4 cup shredded beef, 1/4cup mango

snack - 8oz milk

dinner - 1 Tomato slice, 3 pieces of grilled shrimp (MISTAKE. The shrimp was too tough and did not go down well)

snack - Water and 4oz pineapple juice

Natalie

I just wanted to let you know that the Constipation will get better. I was just like you. I started eating regular food on wednesday and I finally had a regular bowel movement that didn't hurt and cause a lot of pain for me today. I was at the point that I didn't even want to try because it hurt so bad. So i'm praying that it will get better for you also. I also am taking a bowel softner every other day like the dr. told me to, until I know my bowel movements are normal again. I hope that gives you a piece of mind.

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
