Question on Watermelon!



Recommended Posts

I'm 8 weeks out, and I feel like i'm I'm eating too much watermelon?

Is that a problem.

It goes down very easily, and I enjoy it very much. I eat it several times a day.

I remember in the past when I was trying south beach diet, they said it was bad because of the carbs.

Any advice would be appreciated!.

Watermelon is very high in sugar.but I love watermelon with salt. I bought a watermelon this weekend. Ate too much of it on Saturday. But restricted myself to one cup. I would certainly measure and eat no more than one cup per day.

I had some yesterday. I actually chew it up then spit it out. I don't like how it gets almost stringy when it's completely chewed and you get all the flavor in the first couple if times you chew it. I know weird- but it was wonderful. Lol

I love summer fruits, but my doctor told me mostly apples, pears, berries.

Peaches, watermelon, etc are very high in sugar, so I'll try to limit intake during my first summer, s/p VSG...as I hover at 200.4. Aaaaaagh! Onederland where are you?

      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! 😞
