So, I'm in sorta maintenance.  I was wonderring what you all thought of Chinese takeout.  I usually order schizuan chicken, or beef and brocolli.  I don't order combination plates, therefore no spring roll and I skip the rice.  I am not concered about

Jusgt wondering if anyone can identify with me.  Before surgery, size 18 pants, I would not look in the mirror very often. I rarely wore make-up.  But....when I did look in the mirror, I would look for something redeeming about myself.  Suck in my gut,

I have been struggling to get in exercise. I have the time, but no desire. Yesterday I went for a walk outside with a relative. Today I have plans to meet her again at the park at 4:00 pm. I decided I have to take control and make sure I have my wa

My husband told me he is going the Races (some kind of cars where the flames come out the backend) with his buddy.  I thought, you know I need a vacation too.  I am leaving in about an hour to go to lake Michigan to rest and relax.  I am taking a coole

I am 4 days post op.  I drank my water, had 60 grams of protein, about 400 calories, then.....I screwed up.  My husband made a sandwich and it smelled so good.  I ATE A WHOLE PIECE OF TOAST WITH BUTTER.  I am terrified and bewildered.  It was 3 hours a

Surgery on 8/4.  Never thought I have such a great time farting.  It is better than eating.  I am on hospital time. Came home from the hospital today and went for a 3 mile bicycle ride with my husband then went to sleep about 7:00 pm  Woke up around 1

I am trying to exercise 30-60 minutes a day.  I am a little weak, but I was wondering if this period is the same post-op.  I am supposed to do 2 weeks with only protein shakes, sf Popsicle, broth and Crystal Light.  I feel like sitting around, but I do

I have been reading all the posts for RNY, Sleeve and LightWeights, and I want to thank all of you people who ask and answer posts.  I have found out so much information that the hospital support group has not asked/answered.  I have read all your stor

Hello, new to OB, been reading posts for a week. I am 40 BMI, and am only pre-diabetic.  I am afraid to lose more than the 10 pounds, that is required.  I diet for 4-5 days, practicing different behavior skills, than I panic and eat if I see the scale
