Hey Kerri' date='

How many calories do you eat a day? What foods do you say away from if any?[/quote']

I drink Protein for Breakfast, lean cuisine for lunch, and whatever I cook for my family for dinner just east our sized portions. I stay away from a lot of sugar & greasy foods and drink only Water with occasional coke (not very often & not very much) I eat fresh fruit and crackers for Snacks usually. cheese and lunch meat make good snacks too.

I exercise everyday, mostly toning and elliptical. I'm down to 158 right now from 252. Have only lost about 2 or 3 lbs in the last 6 weeks, but I'm losing inches.

Howdy, my October buddies! So, I was sitting here, thinking to myself--- wow, life has certainly changed (for the better) since that fateful day in October. Not only have I regained my confidence (which has had numerous effects on my family and career success) but I need a whole new wardrobe (which I am trying to wait until 1 year to go out and get).

And I wondered-- how have your lives changed (or not) as a result of the big decision you made about 8 months ago? Can't wait to hear from you.

I just felt pain (which wasn't too bad) nausea. And gassy burpy to much. But I also had a second stricture at the same time. They fixed stricture on a Wednesday still felt pain and so.did ultrasound on that Thursday and that Friday took it out went home Saturday which I shouldn't have. Was worst pain ever. Over and beyond my RNY!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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! 😞
