Am I failing already?
sunshine413 replied to bellasmom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Bellasmom, for me, I find there is 7-10 days every single month where I am stalled. I am 6 months post op and it has happened since October. Yes, weight loss in the big picture is a science, but during that stall everything could be equal and I will NOT shed an ounce!! Keep pushing through. It will fall off at its own pace!! Good luck and congrats on FIFTY pounds!! -

Extreme pressure in my chest when I eat too much!! When I run, I can drink the 16oz in an hour easy...if my tummy is empty, I can drink water quickly. -

Food WAS my Friend
sunshine413 replied to kmarcelle's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
"Breaking up with food" was the hardest part for me post surgery... And as with any break up, it gets easier over time... until you wonder one day what in the world was I ever thinking!! You'll be fine! -

It is for me. I'm almost 6 months out and anything that Protein dense doesn't take much to fill me up.
