I've been swallowing whole pills since day 1. I don't even do them one at a time anymore.

Hey Gen, do you know how to change the settings on MFP so that i can view my protein total on the mobile app?

Eye mask! They flick on those lights for every little thing.

Y'all are so freakin brave! I eat the same 5 food over and over again, lol.

Where'd you get the machine and for how much? I want one so bad!!

Broke the stall!!!!!!!

I have restless body too! Lol it's the weirdest most frustrating feeling.

I agree. He is too fast and he didn't take time to really listen to the complications I was having. I prefer his wife.

Thank you all for the encouraging words during this stall and for reminding me I'm not alone. I'm in a better frame of mind today. Still praying for everyone experiencing complications.

I'm in Fort Smith. I have another post op next week.

Hey ms Mandy, I use dr roller too. are you in Fayetteville?

It was a low carb wheat tortilla that I swear almost killed me an hour ago. I won't be trying that again any time soon.

9g of fat in the oh yeah shakes. Is that too high? (I try to stay under 5g per serving)

Oh dear lord what have I done? Ate something wrong or too fast and I'm dying. The pain is unreal.

Still stuck in the stall from hell (on day 17 now), but I finally had my husband just hide the scale last night. I couldn't take it anymore. I so wish I could stomach the gosh darn protein drinks!

I personally don't want anything on my body to be any looser than it already is. So I choose to lose it, rather than loose it. Join me, will you? This has been a friendly yet smartass grammar lesson. Take the knowledge and apply. Thanks!

Soccermomma73, you made me spew water everywhere!!! Hilarious!

Y'all I am getting so depressed over this 16 day stall. I don't understand and I'm just over it. I was staying the same weight eating cake on a reGular basis.

Googled.. 12g of sugar and only 4g of protein. Not worth it, IMO.

Praying for you today, Gen. And I have a suture poking out of every incision but one. They bug the crap out of me.

Pretty sure my NUT said no to almond milk, too. Can't remember why, but it's in my manual.

I did it guys!!!!! 700 calories, 61g protein (my nut only requires 60), and will be at 32oz of water before bed. Water could be better, but this is my best day so far. Not to mention my potassium symptoms are gone and I've successfully completed 2 days of nursing school. (Was terrified of failing due to not feeling well) AND I got my first THREE iv attempts in the first try. I'm amazing

Lactaid ?

I seriously doubt that anyone is going to stretch their pouch by drinking through a straw. Let's be logical here. If you take in gas, enough to push out the walls of your pouch, it isn't going to continue to push... it's going to take the path of least resistance. It will either continue through and be pushed into intestines (and thus begin its life as a fart) or it will bubble right back up into a belch. If drinking through a straw stretches a pouch, it was a sad sad pouch to begin with.

I appreciate the encouraging words, but I'm getting more and more frustrated with each day that passes without a single pound lost. I know I should stop weighing myself, but I'm afraid I'll show up at my next post-op appointment and STILL have not lost anything. I know I'm not getting in 64oz of fluids (I really believe that's impossible.. I sipped literally all day long and got 20oz in) but I'm really close on my Protein. I'm taking my Vitamins and am becoming more active with each passing day. WTH?!?!?
