While I agree with what you said completely DL, it can't stop the nagging feeling that I should be doing more. I am trying but I can't run on the treadmill (walk at a quick pace for 30 minutes)and I can't do the elliptical for more than 15 min. I have tried. I feel sick and dizzy. But if I could maybe I would lose weight faster. Who knows....I didn't become over 400 lbs overnight. And I have lost 68 lbs since pre surgery lifestyle change in May. I want to succeed.

The only problem is they are kinda expensive. They have 40 grams of Protein. I really liked the green one. Melon Apple. when I was on the liquid diet these were a staple....but I had to order them online. I don't know what store carries then

you may have a low platelet count. You can get that checked at your Drs.

Thats awesome DL. I am 4 weeks 1 day post op. Working my 40 hrs a week back at work and started at the gym last week when I was allowed to drive again I went 3 times last week and am attempting this week to go every night after work. LOVE the gym @ 2am, lol

my nutrionist said I should stay at 800 cal a day until i get to my goal weight then I can go up to 1000 to maintain. I would ask your Dr love and see what s/he says

I am doing the treadmill everyday 30 min a day...its not much but its the best I can do right now.

I will def need some clothes...how much are you charging per item?

Congrats on onderland!

I don't know what I should be losing each week. I had my 4 week weigh in and I am 28lbs down since surgery. Averaging 7 lbs a week. Is this too little?

Just believe in yourself and what you are doing. I will randomly have doubts but then I remember that I can do this. And this group is wonderful. I am just eating right and exercising. But because I am unable to exercise as much as I want to (its hard because I am still so heavy) I am afraid I am not losing as much as I could.. le sigh.

you are amazing! Congrats love! Hold a place for me in onederland. I will join you eventually.

I feel like I have had it way too easy so far. I am 4 weeks out, able to get 2 to 3 oz of meat protein in at a time. I rarely have to supplement with protein shakes and bars right now. I probably am not exercising enough but I.am doing 30 minutes on the treadmill 3 to.4 times a week. I get my heart rate up to where the trainer said to and keep it there. I'm not jogging by any means. but I am building up a sweat. I am so sorry for those who regret the decision. And I wish you the best of luck.

I started out at 415...goal for right now is 165lbs. I am at 348. We can do this! Hit me up. Its nice to have other people on the journery who are going through the same thing you are goal wise.

Love the name...quick suggustion...should it be bari-licious? just wondering. Oh! And I just found out my surgeon and nutrionist team offers frozen meals they sell at the weight loss center. between 3-5 bucks a meal depending on what it is.

I hope you are recouping well! Walk walk walk! It will relieve the gas. Welcome to the club!

feel better soon hon. I thought I had a UTI, but I have a stupid bacteria infection because of the antibiotics they gave me in the hospital. probably way tmi but I jus wanted to let you know you aren't alone ::hugs::

Fingers crossed for you darlin'

go to skinnytaste.com. Everything on there looks wonderful. I am going to make the stuffed pepper soup...yum!

This is so great! Everyone is doing an amazing job and looks so fab!

You can do it!

How long are they keeping you on the liquid diet?

I had hot and sour Soup not to long after surgery....my pouch made funny noises with each sip but it stayed down with no complications

I was a 52~50 D and unable to buy sexy bras. I bought 2 bras in 46D and they fit with no extender! Add they put my breasts up where they are supposed to be. I feel like they have depleted in mass a bit and they look sad without a bra...small victory and the boyfriend likes the new over the shoulder boulder holders.
