I had peanut butter cups last week. They were no where as good as I remember. I think my tast changed.

So happy you found the protein drink you like. Kroger has a protein water I just tried it's good too.

Wonderful

Lol. It does help to be fresh from the surgery. Ok I cheated and looked in the book my doctor gave out.

Facebook has some really good bariatric recipes for soft food.

It is a lot of fun, but I can't say better would be the word for it. I started off getting 10% of the moves and I think I'm up to 20%. I bought a Zumba video to practice with. Today I made it thru the teaching steps part. That's fun too if you want to try it. I bought it Walmart. Tomorrow I'm...

Did you hear back from the doctor about your output. I'm worried about that. Hopefully it's just your protein levels. Now the hard part waiting. In a week you should be able to see a different either in your cloths or the scale.

Is that sugar free country time? Your almost to soft food. Yeah!! Popsicles and fudgicles helped me to get in extra protein. Something about the cold that got the last of my protein in for the day. Does your family support your operation? Stress makes a difference in losing weight. Sometimes...

It's up to your doctor but mine wants me to wait until 8 weeks before moving up to vegetables and harder meats. I can have soft meat like canned ham, canned chicken and lunch meat. I can have fish at this stage but no breading. He said I could have rotesserie chicken but my stomach disagreed...

If your not getting 60 grams of protein or more go back to the shakes because the shakes help get the protein and the water in at the same time. Make sure that your not drinking a lot of sugary drinks. No fruit juice. No carbonated drinks. Water or flavored water only. When you do eat you should...

I noticed that some things have changed and it's funny/embarrassing. I thought this would be a good topic. 1)condiment bowls. You know when you buy a group of dishes they have the big plates and little plates. They have the cereal bowl and the little bowls. I always thought those little bowls...

I have had a couple of days where I can't get warm then all of a sudden I'm good. I have a small heater fan that works great because it doesn't heat up the whole room just me. I so enjoy the warm air blowing on me.

its ok we're here to help but we need more information. How did surgery go? Did you get sick? Have you been sick afterwards? How much do you eat and drink? My stomach was numb the first two weeks. I had to be careful not to put too much in. Then at three weeks I started to be able to feel the...

Did I hear it was clean out the closet day? I too will be finding things inside to do. I'm especially going to enjoy teasing my friends in the northern areas because they have a lot more snow. I count my weight loss before the surgery because that was the first time a diet started to work. I...

When your past the soft food stage. 6-8 weeks past past surgery. I'm counting the days.

I got one too. I love it.

I had the same problem craving fried chicken. And yes, it was more of a craving then a hunger. I didn't swallow but spit it out in a napkin. It only took two bites and the craving was gone for days.

Try renting a comedy show. Laughing is a good distraction. We are doing a reset together. I'm not getting enough water in so I'm going back to mostly protein drinks. I'm almost going to bed and have only got 32 ounces in today.

Caffeine is bad because it makes you dehydrated. I love my hot tea but my doctor discussed this in detail because I didn't want to give it up before surgery. Also a lot of herbal teas affect your body. So no herbal tea until after surgery. If your too dehydrated then you can get dizzy and pass...

At four weeks I noticed I had gone down one size. Try looking in your closet for those cloths that are just a little too small. It should give you a big boost.
