Ever since i started my preop diet of liquids ive had diarhea non stop. So since may 1st i havent had a solid doodoo, i also noticed sometimes, and this might be gross but the consistency is that of like mucus. I looked up symptoms and i guess it could be irritable bowel syndrome? I thought once i was on solid food id be ok but nope a couple weeks into solids and still diarhea...cant be from surgery i dont think? Since i had these symptoms just before surgery is it a coincidence or whats the cause and how should i fix it? Ty ahead of time

Wow thanks everyone, raised my spirits =D i need friends for myfitness pal and/or nike fuel

I still have more to go but heres the progress. I have gone from 550(highest) to 479 op day to current 354, idont see a huge difference though :/

I had surgery in may of 2012 and went from 479 day of surgery weight to 355 currently. In the past 2 months ive lost a total of 10 pounds and none in the past 2 weeks. I can consume 2000-2.5k, its discouraging that im able to eat more then mos on the forum. I have drank a total of 2 carbonated beverages in a year so thats one thing ive had under control but i do pick alot and eat snacks a lot. Ive heard from so many others that they dont have a urge to eat but it seems like i get it every 2-3 hours. I have until 2 days ago not counted calories or excercised. I was losing weight without even trying so pyschologically i guess i said i didnt have to. Heres the interesting part though that id like an answer to, how is it that at my weight and height im able to consume 3500 calories a day and still lose 2lbs a week but yet im eating 2500 or less and havent lost anything in weeks?

Im using the app and when i go to add it has only 3 options, from my facebook from my contacts and by email. Try adding me hondacivicsi@gmail.com

I might be losing 1-2 lb a week at most for the past month, i weigh 355 so....

Thanks, was hoping others would disagree. Its so weird when i was 550 i didnt fully believe it because i was mobile and didnt feel i looked like 500+ now that im 350 im still mobile and see myself the same as when i was 550. The only thing thats true is my pants size going from a tight 66 to a comfortable 50 atm.

Hmmm good idea, never thought of that. I havent really researched until lately how to eat healthy.

I just reread my own post and i apologize for my inept ability to use proper grammar.

No i havent really concentrated on protein i know they should be. Im now starting to buy/eat healthier so im going with kashi cereal/oats and blueberries. Ill have chobani yogurts (love them) and special k protein bars etc. i still though dont get at my weight how i could not still be dropping. Is it maybe "sugar" free iced teas because i love them and i know they have sugar substitutes like splenda or teuvia and read recently that they could cause hunger?

Ive measured and monitored through myfitnesspal my caloric intake and its right at 2-2.5k a day at my weight i should still be losing at least 2 lb a week. I dont get it. I got myself a nike fuel band and am now actually going to try.

Everyones different. You mentioned you wouldnt be able to eat fast or you would get sick. I eat fast and even right after surgery i could still eat fast but you will stop because you will feel full just as fast

Hey thanks for the reply i just got off the road with trans am i couldnt hack it as a driver of a big rig, didnt help that i scraped two poles and a stop sign with my trailer and blew 2 tires and bent a rim all in one go. But at least im off the road and can concentrate on working out, stay safe man.

I used to be able to do 135 lb bench press 3 sets of 8 preop. Now i can do just 6 reps on my first set. I admit to not eating much protein the first 3 months and im just starting to work out again. Hopefully i can fill out these baggy skin arms in time.

Tried google and searching here but without luck. I already had the surgery in may in mexico and i will deffinately need skin removal surgery (i was 550lbs) i wanted to know if id be excluded because i had a surgery out of country,or would i even need to tell them. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for reply, what kind of questions would they have, do u know? Im wondering if anyone specifically went through state insurance for cosmetic surgery and let me know some details that would be awesome and as far as self pay, thats out of the question as i tapped myself out with the surgery.

I never really had a pain but more of a feeling of being uncomfortable heart burn it lasted 2 days and slowly got better
