I had my surgery June 25

Yesterday I went to see my surgeon because I've been experiencing heartburn for the last week now. He told me that my calories are low I need to eat 1000-1200 calories a day. So he put me back to eating every 2hrs :-(

How are you doing with your eating?

I have noticed when I don't eat enough that my heartburn acts up as well. I am eating about 700-800 calories a day.

That could be it as well , now my problem is how to eat 1000cal as he recommended unless I drink them but that's not healthy either :-(

I'm always amazed at those calories...I find that I don't lose if I eat less than 1200 a day. I can easily get 1000 in per day, then work on the extra :)

I don't always track my calories but I guess I will. I have been very fortunate in the stall department. I usually just add them in my head but I will start using my fitness pal to do it. I sometimes wonder if I should up my calories but it scares me also.

You have the same surgery date at myself! Interesting that you eat more calories than me and have lost 5 more pounds than myself. Maybe I need to up my calories.....just a little scary though!

Trust me, I feel like a fatty eating so much more than everyone else here...

...until I remember that my journey is my own. What works for ME is what matters (along with my awesome doc's advice!). Good luck!!

      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!!
