From mid September to mid October I went through a rebellion that would even impress a teenager rebelling against curfew & gained almost 5 lbs during it!! However I'm here to tell you that you can stop the feeding crazy train, just take it one step at a time. Since then I have lost those gained pounds & 6 brand spanking new pounds! Reset your determination a portion of the day at a time. Don't wake up saying today I will do everything right & be perfect, take it one meal (and between meal time slot) at a time. I bet by the end of the day you will have a mostly good day. Good luck & keep us posted, we're all pulling for you

Help! Peanut Butter Is The Devil!
carol285 replied to Bama53's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I also love Peanut Butter & have it on a fairly regular basis. I would also recommend the to go cups for portion control. I have found Jif Whips to be way more satisfying (think whipped butter compared to stick butter), it has less calories for the same amount & since it is creamier should pose no band issues. -
A Little Discouraged

I'm not liking it at all honestly! Getting used to something new doesn't bother me at all but now it isn't anywhere near as easy to find enjoyable. -

Awesome!! -

Did you speak to your Doctor & Employer about this? What was the outcome?

Aside from the possibility of you not being able to physically help someone if the need arises (and that is a biggie) I would think the chlorine in the pool would be an issue since your surgical incisions will not be fully healed. As your doctor ASAP
