Calling All 3 Month-Ers! How Are Things Going?
Kareforme posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello 3 month-ers! How has your experience been so far? I am struggling with the feeling of being full. Just in the last week I have been feeling more hungry than in the past. Maybe its all in my head but wondering if there were anyothers with the same experience. Let me know. -
Calling All 3 Month-Ers! How Are Things Going?
Kareforme replied to Kareforme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think you ladies have a point. I have been slacking with my liquids this week and so maybe that is why I "think" I'm hungry. @Favoredone- You have done a great!! I haven't been counting my calories...dietician says its not that important at this stage. What do you think about that? If I had to guess I would say I average 800 to 1000/day. I will be 3 months on the 9th and my 3 month appt. is on the 13th. I only weigh myself on the 9th of every month and at the doctors. What about you? @Kthump- I tend to eat pretty much the same things also. Have you found that your weightloss has increased or stay steady because of the foods you are eating. I have been wondering if my body is at a plateau because I am eating the same foods and doing the same movements? Any thoughts on that? @likasulema: Im curious about the foods you eat that are high in protein and satisfying. -

Kareforme posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Totally went off my diet 1 week early and tried some turkey salad. Well needless to say i am in pain right now and the doctor office says the food is probably stuck. My esphogus is spasming and its painful. What have u done to relive the discomfort? -

Overly Full On Phase 2 Foods. How Do You Get Your Protein?
Kareforme posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Today I started phase 2 of my diet. Overly full on greek yogurt and mashed potatoes. How do you get your protein? I was so excited that I was able to eat that I think I over did it. I'm suppose to wait 1 hour before drinking too. At this rate ill be eating until midnight to get 60 grams of protein in. Did u find it easier to drink your protein in shakes versus food at this stage? I'm a little over 2 weeks now. -

What Food Comes After Liquid Post Op Diet?
Kareforme replied to Kareforme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I really hope I can start mushies. I am so tired of liquids. So much so that its hard for me to get the required supplements. Now I just gotta make it through two more days. Thanks for your help. -
What Food Comes After Liquid Post Op Diet?
Kareforme replied to Kareforme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was only given the diet for two weeks after surgery. I suspect I will get another diet plan for 2-6 weeks and then another at my 6 week appt. I was just wanting to get an idea of what to expect. I am so looking forward to something different than liquids. -

I Just Sucked The Cheese Off A Dorito And It Was So Satisfying.
Kareforme posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Its been only 1 week since I've been sleeved and I cheated already. I took one of my sons Dorito chips and licked all the good stuff off of it. I am so struggling with my food addiction. Has anyone done anything similar to this. Please tell me I'm not alone. -

Kareforme replied to Kareforme's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank to the few or you for making me feel human and not judging me. I was hoping to hear that I wasnt alone in my thinking. I am looking into counseling but this was purely a weak moment of wanting something different that soup and shakes. I did make jello for the first time today and it was tasty. Thanks for listening and the advice. -
I'm Monday at 2:50. So looking forward to life after surgery. May we all have smooth recoveries.

Am I Really Ready For The Inevitable Lifestyle Change. Were U?
Kareforme posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am new to this website but wanted to find some support from people who have been there, done that. I am scheduled for surgery on 1/9/12 and I start the pre-op diet on Tuesday. I'm excited for the results but not necessarily the journey. How hard has it been to change the lifestyle that most of us have lived most of our life?
