Topic: RE: How much should I eat?
I am not sure what made me come here tonight,I usually stick to my local board.I think curiousity is the main reason.I am trying to gauge and maybe compare my weight loss to others.I have lost 78 pounds and fluctuate by 2 pounds either way.I know I should have lost more by now,as I have been at a standstill for three months.I will be honest and admit up front that I havent exercised at all.I am not able to drink the water that is recommended and I am probably not getting in the amount of recommended protein.I am not eating alot of junk foods but probably taking in more carbs than I should be.Hmm guess I just told you exactly why I am not losing more huh?I need some help and support.Do many of you still drink protein supplements daily? What are your average meals like?I welcome any email if it is easier to answer.Thank you for your shoulders.best wishes for continued success!!

I would have to vote for my arms too. I won't even wear t-shirts right now because there is so much loose skin. It's disgusting.

I love this question...I was just talking to my family yesterday and we have decided I will be cooking diner at my house. This is will be my first Thanksgiving after my rebirth. I can't wait. But I will be sending all kinds of left overs home with everyone else. I can't eat them myself any more. I am the only one in my house that eats left overs. I am so excited about this. I will be making a turkey (good Protein), coleslaw (for my dad), mashed potatos and corn. Everyone else will be bringing stuff over. This is an exciting time for me. I hope everyone has a good Thanksgiving.

Hi Dawn,
Before WLS or after WLS I have always been on the cold side, when my feet get cold, its all over.

My X-mas list this year actually has slippers, blankets, and big sweaters. I have not been cold or even worn socks for over 10 years. Reminder I am in New England. Losing the insulation has made me cold. WLS makes you warmer in heart, but colder in body.

Hoping my mom will still cook dinner so I don't have to face the leftovers. Turkey for me "PROTIEN". yum.
