Hi, My tummy gurgles sometimes at night when I lay down. It feels like it starts from my tummy then goes up through my throat. No pain, it actually makes my husband and me laugh because it sounds so...

Not so much the "trots" anymore, but really bad gas sometimes! :rolleyes:

Hi Suzanna,

That's a good question, I'd like to hear other peoples answers also. I try to keep my food at about 1 to 1 1/2 cup (depending on how I'm feeling). I drink an 8oz shake in the...

Hi Keri,

What protein shake are you drinking? I'd like to find one that is higher in protein and lower in calories (but tastes decent). I've been drinking the Boost with protein and it's 240...

Thank you, Tina. I will definitely add more protein. I do drink a protein shake in the morning and usually have a mid morning cheese snack. for lunch I have 1/2 a turkey sandwich (or another...

Thank you for the replies Ladies. I do 30 minutes on the eliptical machine and 20 minutes on the treadmill. I do weights once a week. I try to get my daily protein, but not always. I've just...

I'm a year and a half out after my surgery and I'm really struggling. I know what I'm supposed to be doing and I do great when I am at work (most of the time) but when I get home I just want to eat....

I have one on my lower back, shoulder and calf. The one on my lower back has shrunk, it actually looks better lol!! The shoulder and calf ones have not changed.

Way to GO!!!!

I'm a year out from my surgery and you will be able to eat all of those foods again, just in moderation. I avoid rice because it fills me up really quick. I usually split fries with my husband. I...

Hi Jerzeygirl,

Way to go!!! You look great! I've been stuck between 173 and 171 for the past two months. ugh I'm keeping positive! Keep up the great work!!

Congratulations on losing almost 100 lbs! That's amazing. Don't let some bimbo bring you down. We're all very proud of you. I myself probably would have punched her in the mouth lol. Keep up the...

Congratulations on your upcoming surgery! Definitely sugar free popsicles and even sugar free pudding. This is kind of yucky, but sometimes when I was napping I tooted, they were a little wet. I...

My starting weight when I first started the journey (going through classes etc) was 249, on my day of surgery I weighed 228. I now weigh 173, losing 55 lbs since my surgery. I force myself to go the...

Hi Julie, I too am 8 months out coming this Monday, Feb 27. Welcome to the site!! I'm struggling a little bit with getting myself motivated to exercise, how are you doing?

I was wearing a 44D and now am wearing a 40DD. It was explained to me why our cup sizes go larger when we start to lose weight, but it didn't really make a whole lot of sense to me. I just wasn't...

Congratulations on the weight loss! What type of exercises are you doing?

HI there,

I'm almost 7 months out and I do get hunger feelings. Like most people have said, it is mostly "head hunger" or if I don't get enough protein or water. It is a battle for me every day.

Hi there,

I'm almost 6 months out from my surgery and I've noticed that my emotions are going haywire. I'm easily irritated, want to cry and extremely tired. I'm already on anti depressants and...

Congratulations!! What a great feeling! Keep up the great work!
