Pre_surgery I could've gained 6lbs in a week!
My ob/gyn's office always takes off 2lbs to allow for clothing which I always appreciated, but make sure your doc doesn't do the same!

My medical history is my business. I'm a very private person and don't tend to tell people intimate details about my life unless I can trust them 100% or feel I need to. There's nothing bad or...
This is really interesting, I love raw coconut water, good to know it has such a great effect on our bodies by flushing out harmful bacteria. However I have been told that the pasteurization and...
This is encouraging to read!
I'm taking my 6 year old to a little girl's birthday party this afternoon, and I know that there will be enough pizza and soda to sink a battleship there (and nothing...
YAY! I love seeing before and after pictures they're so encouraging. Well done you!
I know general anaesthetic constipates people, so that contributes to it. After surgery the primary dietary goal is protein, protein, protein. Veggies, fruit, grains and cereals which is where most...
I did thanks CamCat. I actually ended up going to an Urgent Care place near me as my GP was closed that day. I really needed to be seen as the pain from the UTI was spreading up to my kidneys and I...
If you're taking protonix and still having feelings of hunger a lot, perhaps switch up the medication? I don't know if that will help but it might be worth a try to ask your doctor for a different...

I've just been going through this recently too. I absolutely felt starving hungry, stressed and anxious all the time. It was almost a physical pain in my stomach. You guessed it -...
I came across this brand "Powerful" of yogurt in Stop and Shop recently and saw them again in Target. The flavored ones have 7g of sugar, 17g of carbs per pot and 21g of protein. The plain has 25g of...
I've been having a very similar experience lately, I've been googling around looking for low-carb recipes and I keep coming across keto websites and keto recipes. I've been wondering if it would be...
Making a fish curry as we speak! It's from a low carb cookbook and is made with garlic, ginger, tomatoes, haddock (I couldn't find any so am using cod and tilapia) and coconut milk. I'm a bit worried...
Good luck! We're all rooting for you! :)
I had a similar reaction to eggs early on but I can eat them fine now. It might just be that you need to wait a while before trying them again.
That sucks :(
My brother is in dire need of a knee replacement after a very bad soccer injury so I'm familiar with how tough some sports are on your bones. I hope you can find swimming or something...
I believe that after I was starved as a child (doctor recommended I be starved for 3 days - to combat pneumonia and gastroenteritis) that this resulted in a lifelong overproduction of the hormone...
Welcome! Hope your recovery is going well!
This is so cool! I miss living near hiking trails and the countryside. Living in NYC is lively and interesting but the older I get the more I just want to live somewhere greener.
YES! This is is it exactly. I lose interest. It probably sounds crazy but after years of obsessing and driving myself insane over food and weight, losing interest in food now is an absolutely...
I start to feel like I can't take any more food onboard, and I'm mindful of not going past that point. It's just not worth that horrible, sickly, overly full feeling.
But it's definitely taken me...
When I think of all the foods I can't eat anymore, I have mourned no food like I have mourned fish n'chips. When I go home to England I am resolved that I will at some point crack under the pressure...
Seriously! I am so digging my heels in and not spending money on new clothes, not with Christmas just around the corner and a 6 year old who is asking for about $10,000,000 worth of toys! It's baggy...
Wow 50lbs in 36 days is truly incredible! Congrats!
Since my bit of weight loss I...well....I was walking home yesterday, my hands were full of shopping bags and I could feel my jeans slipping...
Surgery messes with your hormones quite a bit iirc. If there's no chance you could be pregnant then I wouldn't worry, your body might just be taking a while to get back on an even keel, hormone-wise.
This this this. I remember years ago my mum was going to weight watchers and practically starving herself to get her weight down, which worked for a while then stopped. The WW leader told her to stop...
