OK. Found it and holy wow. 22 grams per 1/4 cup. 6 carbs. Now what do you do with it?

Surely the vinegar in the brine must do something positive.

My tummy just tried to start a conversation in the movie theatre during a quiet bit in the film. -

Yeah, I'm 2.5 months out and instead of being the fat girl, I'm the girl who makes weird noises. My tummy and my throat. All the time. -
Just putting it out there, so 'dirty' little secrets may see the light of day!

Got mine a week ago. It was uncomfortable but not awful. It has contributed to the strangest period I've ever had but I don't have pain or anything.

HW 288 SW277 CW 236.8 happy with the look and feel of my surgery results. No regrets here. I too don't exercise enough. I do yoga several times a week but nothing aerobic. I want more veggies. -
This is gonna sound ridiculous but I really miss veggies. I feel like there just isn't any room in my diet for plants. I eat a veggie burger for dinner just to feel like I am getting some plants in my diet. Anybody else feeling this way?

The issue is that space in my tummy is valuable real estate now and it seems to be an all Protein neighborhood! I picked up some vegan Protein shakes today which ima try to sandwich my day with so I can at least fill one meal with veggies. I'm a vegetarian and the whey protein, cheese, yogurt, eggs and tofu diet is starting to make me sick! I'm only 2.5 months out.

Is anyone else feeling extra emotional?

Be prepared, post op can be a psychological roller coaster as well. Just be gentle with yourself and remember this is a big change biologically. -
I wanted pickle juice at that point too. The Dr insisted it was caused by failure to drink enough water. My nut said a lol is fine.

I'm 6 weeks out and I still have a lump sensation in my throat. Saw my nut today and she seemed to think it was not associated with surgery. Anybody else still have the lump in the throat?

Well I been scoped by the ent and he sees no sign if the gerd or allergies. Gotta call the surgeon. -
Prior to sleeving I had managed stability with Zoloft and Klonopin and had avoided mood stabilizers. I'm 7 weeks out and feel a ridiculous need to constantly moooove. I'm cleaning, talking, planning, scheming and building. I am following normal sleep patterns though. Is anyone having trouble telling the difference between hypomania and regular energy surge as a result of weight loss? I would love for this to just be natural energy. But we all know what happens next if it ain't.

Check the bottle. The only med I take that doesn't require it be taken with food is my klonopin.
-
Thank goodness. I am relieved to hear it. I'm 9 weeks out. Thank you!

Things I will NOT miss about being fat.

Seriously, the pantyhose debacle. Between getting them on, holding my pee, the inevitable roll down and the latter day chafe.
