    6 weeks post

    Likely not hunger. . May be stomach acid. Try a low dose antacid. Or drink! Can mean not enough fluid. This too shall pass. I has that off and on for 2 months. I am 7 out and problem comes and goes randomly.

    anyone from Kentucky?

    Live in northern ky. Alexandria. Sleeved in January let me know if you need anything!
  12. No regrets. No complications. Only regret was not trying to understand why I eat. I am now but should have sooner. Surgery did not make my desire to TURN to food less. It makes me consume less makes me try to determine what is making me run to the fridge (thank goodness o ly sugar free Popsicles are there). Date nite seems like a challenge some days.....but I eat so little hubby gets his faves all the time...bonus for him. . Down to 170. 15lbs from goal. Would have surgery again tomorrow
  13. I have been struggling with keeping values within range since surgery. Meds changing every six weeks. To high. To low! Anyone experience this? If so, how long before you were able to get regulated? Doctor says just struggling with absorption which would not be uncommon.
  14. Go up on treadmill speed to 4.0 and above. Increase calorie burn by 60% in same amount of time!

    Off track

    I have not logged in a month. My nut said if I am eating my protein exercising and loosing that I should not worry. If I loose slow or gain she would not be able to make change recommendations.....so, like all things in life, it is a personal choice. Good luck
