The restriction really is still there' date=' I promise. Just track what you eat. And remember that breastfeeding really only means you get one extra calcium/protein rich snack a day - another 200 calories or so! Eat a good balance of foods and try to eat dense Proteins first and see if that helps. I know it's hard. Hormones make me feel like peeling paint off the walls and I can eat, eat, eat if I allow myself to do so. It doesn't matter if I know darn well I'm not really hungry. I feel like I'm starving and that sends me right back to the kitchen. Good luck, ladies! I'm enjoying my almost six month old and it's frustrating at times to feel so tired and also to not fit in my clothes exactly the way I'd like. But I wouldn't trade this little beastie for anything in the world, and if fighting a handful of pounds is the price I have to pay it's worth it! ~Cheri[/quote']

I talked to my nut who suggested 1600-1800 cal/day. I recently started tracking again which helps with my accountability and I'm getting around 1500 right now but really nutritious food. I'm starting to feel my restriction again but definitely not as much. Feels good to be back on track I feel more I'm control

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
