The best motivation is looking at your starting out picture - the day of your surgery. It is the motivation u need to not turn back and keep moving forward. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

You have to cook the food first for instance, I put it in mashed potatoes or mix with baked potato after I cook/ warm it up. Remember it can not be hot or it will change texture. It goes great in cottage cheese - try this recipe! 1/4 low fat brookstone cottage cheese 1 teaspoon sugar free tarni Carmel syrup Chopped apple Cran raisins Mixes 1/2 scoop unflavored powder into cottage cheese add apple and cran raisin and pour syrup on top.

EAS shakes use a blend if it, it's the only thing I can tolerate. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Yes, like turtlenecks - they look different depending on you neck, torso etc... I understand. I could squeeze all my weight into my jeans at size 20, but any dresses above the knees showing my thighs was a nightmare. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

pizza was my favorite food. To get over the hump you can slice tomato thin, put a little pizza sauce ontop, add low fat mozzarella cheese with pizza seasoning. Put it in the stove - broil until cheese turn golden brown. It is sooo yummy and easy on pouch. I have picture on old post somewhere - u can search pizza. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

I still have trouble with Water - I'm going to look at this app. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

It depends I what month / how far out are you talking about. During my first month Soup, crushed ice, sugar free apple sauce, cottage cheese helped the most. Once I could eat soft foods - crab legs and scallops. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Hello. Well first you have step back and take a moment. . Everyone body's is not the same and the weightloss isn't the same. We all gain weight from the surgery, iv's etc... You will start to see major result usually 1st month and 3rd month. Most people have stalls during a time period after 6 weeks. It's not a miracle cure and you have to do your part with drinking tons of Water and eating lots of Protein. Can't wait to see your results! Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Yes, my hospital required it. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

You should start a new thread for singles looking to date!!! It would be wonderful if u found someone who knows about the surgery. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

I was told it also flushes food out. I followed that rule up until about 4 months. Now I take an occasional sip when I eat, but I'm going to try to stop. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Hey! You have a lot of good questions, but I would worn you no one has the same effects from the surgery. Some people can't tolerate milk, eggs, sugar, bread, or candy etc.. Others do not get sick at all. Why would you want to go back to drinking sodas if they are unhealthy? After surgery, your thinking changes and you have to focus on eating Protein around the clock.

This is a life long journey- one mistake will not put u out of the race. Just figure out a good substitute - some frozen yougart? Etc... Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Geesh!!!! This is so horrible. I guess condoms are the best thing? Which sucks Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

Please ask your doctor for carafate. I couldn't drink Water for months, it felt like bricks. The doctor found out water was causing muscle spasms. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

This is a very super normal reaction! It's going to be that way a little while and then you will realize you can't even tolerate or want to eat that stuff. So the anger will go away. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk
