Let start out November Group! and go....

Mine is November 26, TWO days before Thanksgiving.... When is yours?

I'm so glad to have found this thread.

I had RNY two days before my 2nd son's 8th birthday (thanksgiving) and was home by Wednesday afternoon! Physically everything is healing well and I'm drinking (a little less than half what I'm supposed to be), but emotionally I just feel out of sorts and I get really grumpy with the kids at dinner time ... I'm still not sure if it's them not listening or watching them eat that's bothering me ... I've really been enjoying getting to chew when it's time to take my Multivitamin ... Sigh

Hi guys and gals! I'm new to BariatricPal! I am 11 days out. I had the Bariatric Sleeve on Nov. 25, 2013. Like one of the other ladies, I came home the Wednesday before thanksgiving. I was really excited and not having much trouble with the Protein until about 2 days ago. All of a sudden I want real food and I hate the taste of my Protein shake. I don't know what it is but I want something sweet all the time. If anyone knows something that will soothe that craving please let me know.

Hi everyone, I had my operation on the 28th of Nov. and so far doing ok. I am with a few of you having a hard time writing things down after doing it for a year just cant get back into it. I too cant stand the protien drinks except glucerna I can still manage to drink if I feel the need too. I was wondering if any of you at this point have tried salads and how it was for any of you.

Happy to see our Nov group is moving towards a healthier life! I am doing what I need to do... Work outs are behind even though I joined the YMCA ( which is just a mile away and a beautiful club). I am 64 but that can't be an excuse to not work harder! My other issue is when I fix my meals .. I am not consistent with that 1/2 cup measuring cup! I have just been "guessing" and waiting to feel full.... NOT A GOOD PRACTICE for any of us. I am in my third stall now... Lost and gained the same pound for 5 days.. Down 50# so it is all good.. Started at 252 .. Now 202... So want to be in ONEderland at 199. Anyone else stuck again? My stalls can last for a few weeks UGH

I was stalled for about a week. Now the lb is off. It was my first stall that lasted more that 3 or 4 days. I have hit 47 lbs!!! I was at 226 now I am 179. I was sooo thrilled to be in the 100's too. Every time it a new number I do a happy dance.

You are doing great. I think stalls are normal. I have made a deal with myself to never get too worked up over one. We will get past it !!!! The weight will come off it really will !!!! Good luck stay positive !!!

Hey everyone! I am an October surgery pt, but feel like I belong here as well. My surgery was halloween. How is everyone doing? How is your drinking fluids and getting your protein in?

hi everyone had my operation now two months ago trying to do normal food and having some issues knowing what I can eat, Like some of you some days I can eat it the next i am sick. I think some are right I do eat too fast some times. I think it is important to make sure we pay attention when we eat and the time it takes us. I do know one thing dont try lobster...it is too much like steak texture and wow was I sick..
