What the heck is happening to me! This is the first time PO that I have been eating non-stop, due to PMS!

I thought that cycle was finally beaten!

I am eating anything that comes into view, healthy or unhealthy. Normally I can up my Water and enjoy some extra dark chocolate and I get through.

I am terrified that I will have gained weight once this period is over!!! Help me! ( Laughing but serious,)

For the record, I have been excessively trying to keep good Snacks and food prep for work, per the usual. I am eating all the good food and extra.

Eat a pickle but don't overdo it or you will retain water

surgery doesn't solve that. At first it takes your hunger away (at least for most of us) for a few months. It can also reset your metabolism. And also, for the first few weeks or months, it makes it tough if not impossible to eat more than a few tablespoons. But at some point, you can easily return to the bad habits you had before surgery and gain much - if not all - of your weight back. You have to be diligent for the rest of your life if you want to keep the weight off. My weight quickly heads north if I stop paying attention. At 4.5 years out, I still weigh myself daily, watch my calories, and weigh/measure most things and log everything that goes into my mouth. I've accepted the fact that I have to do that for the rest of my life.

Sugar Free Chocolate pudding. That's what helped me and I didn't gain anything.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
