    Back On Track

    It's been a few weeks since I have posted much here but wanted to let you know I am in the groove, back on track. I had a very challenging time determining goal because of an unexpected little bump...

    Re: I want FOOD!

    This is a very good reply, my feelings exactly. Not to offend the OP, but you are behind the curve without prior counseling on what you need to be doing. It's never too late to learn, so get to it. I...

    Re: I want FOOD!

    I hope you read and study the materials, follow your surgeon's guidelines and you will do great. It is too bad you didn't know all of this prior to your surgery so you could have put some of these...

    Re: popcorn

    Very sound advice here, I was taught to stay away from carbs as much as possible. To this day I am advised by my weight loss center's NUT to keep my carbs below 100 grams daily. I say taught, it was...
  5. Re: Never Had A "HoneyMoon" Period Like Many of You, NOW WHAT?

    I was a Weight Watchers and every other diet program member for decades and saw up close and personal the differences and struggles women have when it comes to weight loss. Men struggle too, but we...
  6. Re: Never Had A "HoneyMoon" Period Like Many of You, NOW WHAT?

    I am 64 and had just turned 62 when I was sleeved. I understand as a male and hopefully not menopausal:D, weight loss comes more easily for me. However one year out from my sleeve I had triple bypass...
  7. Re: Never Had A "HoneyMoon" Period Like Many of You, NOW WHAT?

    I am trying to understand your post as best as I can, you are less than 2 months out, right? You have lost 19 lbs, right? I know some lose faster than that but there are so many variables. Such as...

    Re: sad day for me

    Yes you are very early out, I was the same at first, which made protein drinks for me very difficult. It took about a year before I could handle milk. The catch is this, after a year you will be able...

    Re: Motivation

    I think you need to do a little self assessment, are you following a plan of fluids and protein? High quality protein, are you taking your vitamins? If you follow your nutritionists guidelines I...

    Re: No holds barred, honest evaluation of Dr. Almanza

    As I have mentioned, you sir are in the minority. I think most obese people left to their own vices will become obese again. I don't care how you self justify being obese, but being obese will lead...

    Re: Survey about how you eat your food

    I remember at your stage I had lots of partial containers in my fridge. I was so determined at that stage it did not tempt me to graze or over eat. Now 2 1/2 years out I do not keep so much. I try to...

    Re: No holds barred, honest evaluation of Dr. Almanza

    I find this very interesting, full disclosure is a very important part of any searching of a surgeon. The biggest shortcoming of having a surgery in Mexico is the lack of dietary counseling and after...

    I remember when I was at your stage I always used to say, this feels like the best eating program I have ever been on. I can't eat much at once and I eat every 2 1/2 to 3 hours. I focussed on high...
