Yeah I try not to just look at the numbers. So I know I really need to hurry and get tape measurer. Thank you for the encouragement and yes I know I have to keep in mind that this is a marathon!!

Thanks I just downloaded the app so I will see how this goes!!!

First off thanks!!! But yes that was something I didn't consider at all I was simply going by what the scale reads. Think I'm going to get some measuring tape and actually see what my measurements are and see how they vary from week to week as well.

Okay...because I was like I can't eat anymore!!! But it was recommended to help me keep a food log. So I guess I will us it to track just those specific things. Thanks!!!

Thanks...I take my prenatal Vitamins everyday. I'll try the no dairy thing for a week and try and get in more protein.

I didn't think of that...so yeah I guess that is a good problem to have!!! Any thoughts on the food part?

NO NO NO....I'm sorry!!! But the hunger gets real and I unfortunately did not get dumping syndrome so I have to be extremely careful around that time. Or I will be back in the same place and that is definitely NOT where I want to be!!!!

I remember those days all to well!!! And yes dreaming is all you can do at this point.

I'm sorry Hun it's too soon for anything that's going to get that craving off you. I get like that as well it's either crunchy salty or chocolate!!!

How far post op are you?

Well I really need some help...since my surgery in August I am down 89 pounds. But for the past two months I have teetered in between 240 and 233 and I can't seem to break free from this area. I know they say after six months the weight loss really slows down...so that has me a bit frazzled as well because my first three months were spent in extreme pain. So I wasn't able to really do the physical part right away. So now I'm really hitting the gym but with very little results. My other problem is I didn't get dumping syndrome at all I do get uncomfortable when I eat to fast but thats about it. I was sorta looking forward to the extra food controller I guess. So I think maybe some of the things I'm eating aren't great. But it seems as if i eat the same things over and over trying to get protein in. I still check and watch the sugar content but that knowledge of knowing that its not going to make me sick is there. So i do know i definitely need to find better protein sources. So if any one has hit a plateau at this stage and can offer anything I would be extremely grateful?

Went to my post-op appt today and the Dr moved me on to stage 3 which is a big relief for me I can deal with things here soooooo much better!!!

Only two weeks...guess I better not because I don't want to experience that at ALL!!!

Can I just say mash a meatball up on my plate?
