I thought I'd share my journey thus far.

It hasn't been easy...and I still have a way to go, however, this is physically the change I have seen.

Prior to surgery I used Advil any time that I had pain. It was very effective.

lately I have so much muscle pain. Tylenol isn't doing anything to help. And now I have an earache.

what do you take that helps pain? I'm getting desperate.

I am a bit freaked out. I think I have gastro....I can't keep anything down.

i eat because I know I have to and then it all comes back.

What do I do? Do you treat it as you normally would? Crazy question but I'm new to this and it seems

Crazy question. 

I seem to be able to drink green tea a heck of a lot easier than plain old water. Does this count towards my water count per day? There's no caffeine. I also just bought a David's tea portable infusers with various teas. I find

So chicken and my belly don't seem to like each other.

I puréed everything. I chewed. I ate the amount that I am allowed, and I feel sick.

The worst part....I ate chicken yesterday and the same thing happened. I thought it was a fluke,

im tracking with my fitness pal, but I'm not getting in enough food

Today is the first time I really can feel my belly full. What a weird sensation! I am just ecstatic for this. I haven't really noticed it until today. Perhaps it's because I ate soft cheese for he first time?

Crazy question. 

How did you all arrive at your goal weight? How do you figure out how much weight you NEED to lose?

I'm just getting ready to go get my staples out.

i stepped on the scale this morning. I was 266 just before I went into surgery. I was 259.4 just a few moments ago. Happy, yet disappointed. I'm was thinking that I would lose this weight quicker


Teio posted a discussion topic 8 years ago

So today, three people who are 'friends' send me messages. "How much weight have you lost? Oh, I can't wait to see how different you look! Adidas you lose weight yet? I read that you should lose like two pounds a day! " - my response was to just respon

I am two days post op. I stepped on the scale and noticed that I am 6 pounds heavier than when I went in to surgery? 

What is the reason? Curious.
