Try lemon with water or HINT water not sure if they have artificial sweetener though

I know it's soo easy to get up, after all we did cut out a portion of our stomach. Have faith we all stall. That's the body way of handling all that's going on. As long as your eating and drinking what you are required to eat and drink then you are fine. That extra pound could be water or TMI poop lol. You are doing great!

I was sleeved 2/8. So close in time. How are you coming along?

I was getting ready to go to work and I felt sick, like fainting. Thought my blood sugar was low so I drank a little protein and I immediately started to gag. Now mind you I have been feeling off for about 2 weeks now. My nut tells me I have to eat more, which I have. Now I had to call out and I am sitting on couch crying. It's after hours, not sure if i should go to urgent care or wait it out till am.

I am waiting in urgent care, they triaged me and took me fairly quickly while others are waiting outside still :-( hope I am ok.

Hey I am 29 and from LA too. Are you a kaiser patient?

Yay! Congrats

Was just wondering where are you guys calorie wise at this point? If I do 2 shakes as meal replacements I run lower in calories that day, around 400. If I do one shakes and then regular food throughout the day I can do 500-650. My NUT told me I HAD to increase my calories in order to have energy ( of which I was low on). Just want to know where everyone is at around this point.

Omg so jealous. I am 7.5 weeks out and my larger incision is still with a scab. Ugh frustrating

Today I weigh in at 211. Down 3lbs from last week. I have a feeling it might be a little More because I feel bloated and heavy.

The chicken broth is actually good

Will do!!! :-)

So I have been suffering from boredom of Plain protein shakes. Bought a couple of samples of shakes, protein bars, high protein snacks. Can't wait to try them

So I had posted the other day that I was depressed. I still am having those down feelings but I think it's coming from extreme lack of energy. I take my vitamins and drink plenty of water. I called my doctors office and left a message. But all I have energy for is sleeping. Any one else felt like this?

Just spoke with my doctors office. She said to up my calories. Especially since I am back at work (constantly on my feet) and going to gym 3 times a week with a trainer ( I did miss 2 sessions this week cause I was dead tired) I think I am going to up my calories a bit and do gym 2 times a week for a while and see how I feel.

Happened to me too. Seems like the days I am naughty the scale drops.

I feel that way too! And I am 7weeks out!

At work one night I had one Hershey kiss and one tiny bite of cheesecake a co worker made. Cheesecake made me feel weird, so no more for me!

Lol I read 40 ounces at first!

I take Iron chewable. I shouldn't be pregnant because I had an IUD placed. I have been spotting on and off because of my period deciding to regulate. I will let you guys know. I want labs taken tomorrow, will ask when I get call from doctors office tomorrow. Yea back at work.

7weeks

Ok so I just thought I was "sad" at first but now I am coming to conclusion that I am depressed. Like stay home all the time, sleep till really late (it's 1pm and writing this in bed) skipped my training session, house is a mess, low sex drive, nothing makes me happy depressed. I hate this feeling, I want to just shake it off. Just don't know how.

So that time has come to make room for new transition clothes cause my old sizes 2-3x and 18-20's don't fit anymore. Yay! I feel a little sad cause some of the clothes are really cute. Thinking of donating or selling on eBay in bundles, not sure yet. I really don't want to go crazy on shopping so I am wearing a lot of the same clothes over and over lol. Plus I have a trip to Hawaii in May, so I am waiting till then for a little shopping splurge.

I lost 10lbs my first week as well and stalled on the 2nd for a whole week. After that I have been loosing slowly but consistently. Keep focused!!
