Good for you!!! Keep it up. Hope to share positive news with all next week.

I broke the stall! Woo! Down two lbs. good thing I didn't give up. However, I did workout too much and hurt my stomach so it's pretty sore now :/ I tried to jog...ugh!

Just are puréed egg beaters with some cheese and turkey. Unfortunatly the turkey I used was kinda spicy- tummy Didn't like. Usually it sits well!

I got a "farberware" single serve blender/processor and love it!

Awesome I am still the same . Just started on puree foods yesterday. Such a different filling in side. I have tried tuna and about an hr after after I eat my abdomen hurts. Gonna try different food. And see if that helps.

Yeah i definitely didn't tolerate tuna. Try yogurt, cottage cheese and applesauce with a bit of Splenda, retried beans and some cheese- those are all ones I have tolerated.

What kind of workout are you doing ?

What kind of workout are you doing ?

I've been walking about 30- 40 mins day. Trying I make sure I get a good sweat. I downloaded couch to 5k on my phone and attempted to jog a little bit (15-30secs at a time). Was a bit too early to try to jog. But I'm going to keep up the walking . Oh and if you have a smartphone- spotify has a workout playlist that is awesome!

Thank you for the heads up on Spotify. Downloaded it tonight.

Sounds like everyone is doing great!! Surgery was March 5th and I am still sore in the belly area. Been walking but it hurts after about 15 minutes. I went back to work yesterday and by the time I got home I was so tired and sore I had to lay down and I slept for two hours!! I see the nutritionist on the 27th and I go to my stage 2 foods, which is anything I can cut with a fork. I've been good with my Vitamins, and sipping Water and watered down gatorade (G2) all day long. I am down 19 pounds, so I am very happy about that.

Got home yesterday... did not get any sleep in the hospital. I am exhausted. Slept some last night, home alone today. Starting my full liquid diet it is not easy i am not hungry. I have no idea how i am going to get lunch, protein, dinner and protein... Hope all of you are doing well.

Today marks 2 weeks exactly for me!!! I am down 20 lbs, I get to take a bath finally and....I finally had a normal BM (tmi I know but I was thrilled lol) we got this Marchers!!

My nutritionist told me it is normal not to want to eat. If you aren't hungry, don't eat! Just make sure you get your water an protein shakes in and that is enough. Don't force it and don't rush it. I'm 3 weeks out and sometimes I only get one meal in, sometimes none. Just be sure to get your protein and vitamins and you'll be ok
