slowtogo replied to kisersassy's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Soda was almost a game change for me. -

Scallops are good too...just don't over cook em.

Not Trying To Be A Downer But?
slowtogo replied to OleHippieGal's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
You know...it's funny. All the convince in the world can't make you do this successfully. Bottom line, you need to be sick and tired of being sick and tired of being where you are at, and trying every diet in the book, and feeling bone exhausted at the end of every day, hurting, or being sick or both. Some are not glad they had the surgery. Many are. Your reasons have to be YOUR reasons. -
Kiwi... your Protein shakes count as liquids...

50 lbs is amazing...and in 8 weeks... good job!

All of mine are below my rib cage.

Not mine...

Drink 2 protein shakes a day...that will add 400 calories. You need way more calories and protein.

Lactose Intolerance
slowtogo replied to Jamie Welch's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Have been eating salads for at least two months. Eat a small amount, chew it good, and see what happens. -
Paul... Make sur you are getting enough iron. This affects whether or not you feel cold.
-
I have...it's protein and water related. Increase your protein and drink more water. Also, how many calories are you eating a day? Your body fights starvation hard.

Weight Loss 13 Days Out
slowtogo replied to meggiepoo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Your body is still swollen and holding on to whatever it can. You probably are still retaining water as well. Drink your water, eat your protein and relax. Think of it this way. Have you ever lost 8 lbs in 13 days before? It will come off. It's hard to be patient. Thus my name, slowtogo...lol!!! -
I was told a one ounce medicine cup every 10 min.
-
Me to, but no meds. Can't take em...they affect the resting rate of the heart.
-
You and me both, except I had diastolic heart failure and endothelic dysfunction. One step at a time.

How are you feeling mizzlaw? My marriage suffered greatly...have been separated 2 plus month now, but I feel great...so it's one step at a time. Almost 6 months since surgery. I got very tired of being the only one working on this marriage.
