I can't believe we're finally on the losers bench! Congrats to everyone on this side of the journey. Keep us updated with your progress.

Our April first peeps are Deana Wright, MissMeagan and Nella. Ladies, tell us everything!

I find it hard not to drink...I leave drinks in another room...still working on getting religious with this. Not hard with soft foods but harder with stuff like chicken.

Going out of town next weekend. Very nervous about eating out for an entire weekend including two pre- ordered meals. Still on soft food so what foods should I pack for the ten hour drive and in the hotel room?

I had a piece of pepperoni pizza tonight...crust and all and didn't dump. I know it's crazy to say this but I just want to dump on something so i can see what it's like!!!

I didn't have a "true" dump (ie. with oil or sugar) but a couple weeks ago I had all the symptoms after I ate three pieces of dragon roll. I mindlessly fell into my old, pre-surgery habit of eating the pieces whole instead of cutting them into small pieces then eating slowly. I had all the symptoms: chest pains, rapid pulse, sweating, doubled over in pain. Fifteen minutes I later ended up getting sick in my boyfriend's drink cup when we left the building. It was easily one of the worst experiences and pains in my life. I truly wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I would avoid having that experience at all costs. Just not worth it.

I feel like I'm one of those slow losers. I'm in my 7th week, having had surgery April 17th, and I've "only" lost 24 lbs so far. I'm still wearing the same clothes from before my procedure, albeit they're looser now. I know we're all different and lose at different rates, but I honestly can't help but feel disappointed by my slow progress.

I can relate!...I'm a slow loser too!!!....I see so many who have lost double of what I've lost in almost the same amount of time. I keep thinking it's going to kick in anyday. Anxiously waiting!

wow, sounds like that was a horrific experience.. I think a few times i had mild sweating and rapid pulse, but no pains. Curiosity of the unknown has really got me wondering though :/

Can't believe its already June!

Happy June

I do...i find myself mindlessly taking drinks after I eat. Hard habit to break!

I do this also

Does anybody have a problem with drinking with meals I try not to but its hard

I really struggle with this one! I usually end up drinking a little with my meals.

I would probably pack a little cooler with protein shakes for the car ride.

Everythings been making me sick. Had 3 bites of lean hamgber last night amd was sick for 3 hours. I have a feeling i will not be able to eat much which suxs. Only meat i can eat is chicken thankfully i like chicken lol. Under 250 so hard to believe but feeling good body getting use to be being back to work my baco doesnt hurt as much as it did from losing the weight some days all i wanna do is sleep but its getting better

I'm a slow loser too. I've lost 27 lbs since surgery almost 2 months ago. I try to remind myself that I lost 30 lbs before surgery, so I'm sure that effects my numbers. I could be exercising a lot more as well.

I know right? I try my favorite restaurant foods at home first and wait for 30 minutes. If its okay at home' date=' then I will try it next time I go out. I know it sounds bad, but Wendy's chili has saved my protein numbers a couple of days![/quote']

I do Wendy's chilli all the time. It's cheap and like u said sometimes it gets me to goal on protein
