Congrats on the weightloss!!! You're doing great! I don't know if you like chocolate but there are "no sugar added" fudgesicles. Also you can take pepperonis and microwave them til they're crispy and they're like chips. SJ had me try that minute maid 15 calorie lemonade and it tastes like a treat.

Ok seriously that turkey pepperoni saved my life! I had some left over from when I made a cauliflower crust pizza so I thought I would put it in the microwave like you mentioned! Soooo good! I have been missing a salty crunch! And the best thing with this is it has protein in it! Great idea SJ!

I'm curious (for those of us that use the app and don't see tickers) what are your current stats? How many weeks out and how much weight gone? Let's hear it!!

Date of surgery 2/17/14

Starting weight 288

Surgery weight 259

Current weigh 233

I am 7 weeks out. I've only lost 19 lbs. it gets very discouraging. I started going to the gym but it caused lots of pain for a week I'm ready to try it again. I walk but need to step that up too. I follow my food plan pretty closely and sometimes wonder if I'm getting enough calories.

I see the doc next week and want to figure out why my loss is so slow.

Hey all!! Hope you're all doing fabulous!!! Sorry I've been kind of offline for a bit. Got busy with work and stuff. I'll try to be better at keeping in contact. Things are going well for me. I'm pretty much on a low-carb diet plan. Just last week, I got to add veggies to my diet, so I'm stoked about that. Meat, cheese, and eggs gets a little monotonous. Here are my stats: Starting weight - 294 Day of surgery (2/17/14) - 277 Current weight - 240 I'm down to an 18 in pants from a tight 24 and XL shirts from a 3X. And I've gone down to a D from a DDD. I was hoping I wouldn't lose my boobs so fast, but I guess I'll take a loss where I can! Lol

I'm 6 weeks out today 38 lbs down from highest weight 30 lbs down from surg. day.

Think I'm on a loosing streak. Lost about 2 lbs in the last 2 days. Was stalled for a while. The loss encourages me to keep going!!!

I'm 34, 5'2 and 7 weeks out. Went from a size 28 pant to a 20, and a 40 DD bra to a 38 D. While I'm happy to lose some boobs, I don't want to lose em all. Haha

Are you tracking your intake on MFP? If I eat too few calories I will not lose. If I eat below 600 the scale will not move. I am supposed to hit between 800-900 a day.

I agree with Fab's advice. You need to track and see how much you're getting in. I get around 900-1000 cals a day which my NUT and surgeon are fine with and I am losing steadily. The number may be different for you but you have to experiment to figure it out. Also you need to be getting your water and vitamins in as well. It's a crazy balancing act but you can do this!
