Yeah, I know all that... knowing isn't always enough. I actually do most of your suggestions... I just miss my Zumba, Body Pump, and water aerobics. Hopefully my schedule will calm down sometime.
I want to come to your pity party too. CAn I have an invite?
So, I haven't had the time to be on here lately, but I'm feeling the need for some support and insight into how everyone is doing. I'm down almost 70 pounds. I feel good, but I'm losing so slowly...
Our intestines are not altered... may not be the best, but it's working for me. For now.
Exactly, Laura!
I feel like diet soda would be a gateway drug, and I'm not going there. I only drink water, low calorie Gatorade...
I barely see my weight loss.... it really hasn't sunk in.
I use the liquid protein shots. They are kind of gross, but much easier to drink than the protein shakes.about 4 oz = 42-50 gms of protein. I wasn't getting enough protein and my weight loss was...
My doc let me have grilled chicken once a day if I was hungry. I LOVED my grilled chicken... :0 ! But I didn't cheat. Keep your goal in mind. I have gone from an overall high of about 325 to...
We've done very similarly. Cool! My blood work was all good with the exception of a slight vitamin d deficiency. I am working on my protein input again I had slacked off... doing better again.
I probably was getting about 800-1200, but I have cut back on my carbs again. I was eating too many. They are empty calories as far as we are concerned. Now, 800 is the tops. I'm pretty...
Me fifteen or however many of you agreed. I am cold often as well. Before I was always the hot one, cranking on the air in my classroom when it was 59 degrees outside. The kids would freeze. Now,...
Radical as in "Cool, Dude!" 80's style maybe.
Awesome!
I think the key is getting enough protein. If you're doing that... the weight will continue to drop. Too little protein and the body goes into starvation mode. IMHO.

I'm interested in the salt thing. I am constantly craving salt. I eat fat free saltines sometimes.. mainly for the salt. Not great for my carb intake, I know. But def better than...
Y'all are cracking me up. But on a sad note, I can TOTALLY relate!
I'm losing boobs and butt. Never had much of a butt, but now all my fat pants could hold another person in the backside. All of my weight is boobs and belly. Sadly, I'm going to have to buy...
I can eat 3 to 4 ounces. I'm 3 1/2 months out. It does get better. Kind of wish it didn't.
Wizman - You are my hero. I had surgery Aug 15th too. I was more or less diabetic beofre surgery. Stopped all meds right after surgery. My blood sugars have been very satble. BUT, I was...
That's crazy. Don't get too bummed. It'll start coming off again. Patience is not my strong point. Hope it's yours :).
My doctor told me to exercise all I want. IDK. I haven't been exercising as much this last week or so because we have been crazy busy. But, I felt GREAT when I was exercising. I just made sure I...
I had an awesome surgery and recovery as well. I didn't have to cleanse, but i know bypass patients do have to. I honestly think since the sleeve is so new to some of these American doctors that...
My insurance approved two nights, but I only stayed one night. With them, BCBS, one night is considered outpatient. Since they approved 2 nights, I had to pay a higher copay. They said if I stayed...
