I need some help friends. I've started having pain right over the area where my stomach would be. I went to the grocery store and when I was lifting a 2 liter bottle it just about brought me to my knees. I was an open surgery and this pain is really troubling. Btw, no fever. Anyone else have anything like this?

Feeling better today. Last night was awful, but feeling better today. I'll keep you all posted. Thanks for caring about me. This is a wonderful group of friends!

First of all, I never know which forum these are posted in. Could we all decide on where to put this? Last week. 243.6 This week 243.6

Please tell me what your doing! My surgery was May 1 as well, but I've lost less than20 lbs. I could just cry.

Hi Deb! I wish I knew what to tell you, but I'm right there with you. I not only quit losing, but now I'm gaining, and I haven't cheated either. I don't get it. I'm frustrated and depressed!

Jen, I was told that if my temp went to 101, then I should contact the Dr., but you can sure feel like the devil with any fever.

You're looking good, Panda !

Hi army wifet, I had lactose issues for the first few days and it wasn't pretty. I'm ok with yogurt, but I do lactose free milk and cottage cheese and it seems to help.

Tonight I went with my hubby to a little restaurant. I ordered a hamburger patty and some cottage cheese. I ate less than 1/2 of the hamburger patty but I'm feeling it. I won't do that ever again,

No, Vamp I haven't been doing much of anything. I had some fairly severe pain under my ribs which they discovered was a fluid filled mass, so I really didn't do anything for quite awhile. The pain has pretty much resolved so I think I can get with the program now. If the pain comes back then I have to have more tests. Thanks for the compliment on my pool. I'd love to have you come and use it. I think I'll reward mysel after I get below 200 with a vacation to Hawaii.

He scales are going the wrong way! I'm gaining and I'm logging in my fitness pal. This is getting depressing,

No. I'm waiting on my membership card to a gym I just joined. I've gotten so lazy after I retired I sit way too much. I seem to lack motivation. I have a beautiful in ground pool that I've not even been in this summer. I don't know what's wrong with me

I'm on there too! I 'm. Kristen Cantrell Miller.

I'm about 5 weeks out. My surgery was May 1

Sorry to hear your husband is having issues. Maybe just explain to him that you are still the same person and you're with him because you CHOOSE to be. This process is hard for our partners. My husband worries about my health, but none the less they do go through a lot too. Hang in there honey.

Thank you! I would love to find a trainer who would come to the house.

Hi Vamp! Would you mind sharing some info with me? What gym do you go to and do you have a personal trainer? I've been reluctant to join a gym. I'm fat, lazy, and sweat like a pig. I wouldn't be one of the "beautiful people" there. I know I need to exercise. I haven't done any at all since surgery on May 1. My arms and thighs are hideous so I'm going to have to do something. I hate to admit it but I have a beautiful treadmill and my own in ground pool. I guess I'm just too lazy to live.

I agree. Call your Dr..

Praying for you. Keep us posted

Amazing Vamp! You look terrific! Btw...how did you lose 20 lbs in one week? I'd love to know how to do that.

I'm kind of surprised. I bought a cereal called UNCLE SAM'S. It's high in protein and fiber. It worked really well. You might give it a try. I fight constipation a lot now, too. I have taken Senakot and it does work.

How do you all log in your serving size when it is less than what is on their charts? Is there a way to bypass it? For instance, I had 1/2 a cup of cereal this morning, but the serving size is 3/4 of a cup. I can't figure out how to change it. Any and all help is appreciated!

How much Miralax do you take? Laxatives can be so harsh.

Did you all find that app on an I-pad? I can't seem to find it and I have the I - pad 2. Any and all help appreciated!

Oh yes, Mary! I can see the difference. Kudos!
