I have been post op for about year. Lost 47 gained 20 back. Time to adjust to all the things I was diagnosed with. ; ) I went saw my nutritionist and she gave me a 1000 calorie diet and she just replaced the bread in the morning with GF bread. She did say something about chia seed. They are kinda expensive. But I guess I need to break down and get them and eat more salads. I am still losing weight. 8 pounds in 2 weeks. Thanks ladies,

I hate asking but does anyone else have Constipation? I have been on the 1000 calorie diet for 2 weeks and last 4 days I have not gone to bathroom. I don't eat a lot bread products because of my Celiac. I have taken 2 rounds of laxative. I also tried Metamucil. But it says gluten free. But it is 20 ppm. Anyone have some advise. Thanks!

I know how you feel. I posted I'm back about a week ago. I have been eating the what I am suppose to. It is hard for about a week now. I was so pumped because I was losing weight and today all of the sudden I feel a little down. We have about the same weight to lose. I have celiac and PCOS. Dietery restriction make it harder. I wish all the luck.

That is some good stuff to try. Thanks! My husband can eat all he wants. I have Celiac so I buy him things with flour so I can't eat them ; ) Congrats on you 84 lbs ; )

Hi Jessi
That is great! I lose weight on metfomin... but I can not take it because of my hypoglycemia. It makes it really bad. This is the first week I have really focused on what I am eating and I have lost 2.4 pounds. I take cymbalta for depress and Fibromylagia. It helps with wanting eat a lot. So that is good!
How are you sugar cravings?

$230 a fill

Well I did not go in until last week. He did not fill me because I have found out that I have celeiac, PCOS, and hypoglycemia and he wants me to see the nutritionist. I did and I am back on the band wagon. I do eat half of what I used to eat. I just need to follow the Protein ratio. I get hungry every two hours. So I am going to go get a fill the day after my birthday. ; ) I can not believe it has been a year. I have had a lot of health issues not due to the band. I feel so much better after cutting out gluten. I feel I am in a better place now. Thank you for your concerns ; )

Did you get something like this?
It took me along to not eat for my head. I wanted tubs of guacamole and pints of ice cream. I am better after a year. But somedays are so hard. I take Cymbalta for Major Depression and Fibromylagia. It helps also with wanting everything in the cub board. It is mindful eating....http://www.tcme.org/
The carb is what fills you up. Qunioa is a good Protein choice also.

I went to the nutritionist and she gave me the 6 month lap band diet. Which I already had. It is really hard to wrap my head around such small portions again. I was not eating a lot before. It is just mind over restrictions. Just not the right things before. Scorrea instead of toast I eat a GF waffle - better then GF toast. ; )
What have you found out? Staying motivated is the hardest part for me ; )
