Moving on to "regular" food!
DallasMomofTwins posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
On sunday, I get to move to "regular" food...how do you keep it balanced but still getting in all of your protein? I am dying for any kind of fruit or some salad but i barely have room for the 60 grams of protein! HELP!! -

Thanks u2! This is alot harder than i had anticipated -
Five weeks out tomorrow and only 17 pounds lost..i get about 60 grams of protein per day. Should I increase it? (although, i am not sure how as i get so full just with the 60) have not really started exercising...could that be it? Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated.

Any suggestions on some good places to go while still in the soft food stage?

Thanks ladies..just cant wait for monday when i am cleared for soft foods! Have never wanted cottage cheese and yogurt so bad in my life! -
Two weeks post-op and returning to work today...I feel pretty good but am still extremely anxious about how i am going to make it the whole day and then go pick up my kids at day care (husband is out of town on business) i have a desk job so that will help (as a side note, i am 13 pounds down post op)!!!!

I am such a ball of nerves especially for the fact that my surgery is not until at least 5 pm tomorrow...what to do all day? Anyway, i have never felt so many emotions at one time. How did everyone deal with "the day before" jitters? Thanks all.
