Remember to work on 4 ounces each meal that is our goal for now. 1/2 cup and at least 800 calories a day -

I am not sure about salads I haven't tried yet but I see some less post op then me trying them. I just know protein is the most important thing for us and one serving of meat is 3 ounces so if your not full then the other ounce can be used on veggies then fruit -

You can gave Mayo about a tablespoon but try using low fat or fat free if possible. The best to use is mustard if you like it. It is recommended to stay away from bread rice pasta until you have reached your goal weight -

Crackers are something we are allowed to have. I put peanut butter or with cheese and also to scoop tuna with. 5 crackers also has 2 grams of protein. I am not sure about nuts but I know they are not always the best thing to eat. Real high in fat and calories. Even peanut butter natural nothing added is 190 calories for 2 tablespoons. So its really thinking what's worth the bang for the Buck to put in our tiny stomachs -

Burping is some peoples full signal right after surgery. This is what I wen by because the nerve endings in the stomach isn't fully healed. So either a burp or hiccup can be a full signal -

For one you want to avoid eating bread. Just eat the lean meat and cheese in the sandwiches. Usually at 6 weeks post op you go to regular foods. One of My favorites is to roll cheese up inside Turkey or Ham lunchmeat. Its a good snack and protein -
Why don't you take dad to a support group meeting this may help ease his mind or to a seminar even though you already went to one

Yes it counts but only if you went in and got weighed each month

You won't see bigger numbers till you eat more calories and definitely 64+ ounces of fluid a day

So I decided a few weeks ago that I am finally going to go back to college and get my RN degree. I have wanted this for a long time and don't know why its taken me till I am 43 to go through with it. I even went to college and got an Associates in Business. I figure now with the weight loss I will be able to stand on my feet 12 hours a day and have more energy. I can't wait!! This year is going to be so awesome!!!!

Friday Weigh-In!
kisersassy replied to KevinsBabyGirl85's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow!! Your doing great!! -
There is nothing wrong with weighing every day. I weigh just about every time I go in the bathroom. But I am not stressed about losing or not because I know as long as I follow the rules the weight will come off.

unfortunately walking is the key. the more you get up the less sore you will be and walking really helps get the gas out along with gas x strips.

you should try if you haven't already the Unjury Chicken soup. it is pretty good and you can add it to chicken noodle or cream of chicken but I just add it to hot tap water and it taste like chicken bouillon cubes -

mullberry, I think we are all worried about the same things but if we look at it we are all losing about at the same pace. I just wish I could exercise like I am suppose to as I believe this is why I am not losing more but its physically impossible right now until I recover from all these procedures I have had since surgery. so far I haven't heard any comments I just get the baking chocolate cakes and eating chips and candy in front if me. even though I didn't eat it prior to surgery that much but when your main meal is a cracker and tuna ...
