Recommended Posts

THIS IS THE FIRST TIME AFTER BEING 2 MONTHS POST OP THAT I ATE SOMETHING THAT WASN'T RIGHT! I AM TRYING NOT TO BEAT MYSELF UP BUT CAN'T HELP THAT IT TASTE GOOD AND I REFUSE TO GO BACK TO OLD HABITS! WELL AT LEAST I DIDN'T EAT THE chicken AND JUST PINCED OFF SOME OF THE SKIN.

Don't beat yourself up over it. A couple peices of chicken skin isn't going to ruin you. At least you are in a position where you can't eat multiple peices of fried chicken AND skin.

But don't feel guilty. Guilt and shame are part of what gets us all in the diet trap to begin with. Forgive yourself and do better.

Been there, done that. When I first started eating chicken, I blended it along with a few peices of chicken skin. It was sooooo good after being on liquids and mushies for so long. I have now find that I really don't care so much for the skin like I use to and actually remove it if we had splurged and bought fried chicken. I have found a lot of the bad things I use to eat, just does not taste as good anymore or I am no longer interested it as much. That meal is over with so just focus on the next and eating healthy again. Remember Protein first!. Hang in there.

Mmmmmm, chicken skin. I often wondered by they didn't deep fry them and sell them like Pork rinds.< /p>

A few skins won't ruin you, unless that is it's a few a day or perhaps a few a week. Just pick up and go from here and remember the savory taste.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
