I'm wondering if that's what's going on. I've always craved and have been more hungry around that time of month. Im due next week and this week I was more hungry than normal. Hopefully that's all it is -

Having the same issues as you weight loss slowed down and I've been more hungry this week esp. Than normal. I guess I need to learn to drink more when I get hungry. I was worried about the hunger everyone I've talked to us like I can't believe your hungry and your not even 3 months out. -

I was 255 the day if surgery today I was 217. My surgery was Dec 10, I feel my weight is coming off slow compared to others. I go to the gym 3-4 times a week but I feel it's not coming off as fast as the first month and a half. I too am not getting the protein I should. I only liked the banana but it has gotten to the point I can't even drink that. I need to find another drink with lots if protein. Let me know if you find anything. -

Doing great today I'm 2 months out and lost a total of 50 lbs. I do have trouble with the vitamins though not a fan of chewables. -

One month today!!! I've had my ups and downs. I'm still trying to get into a routine since I started back to work. I get fustrated because I lost 16 lbs the first week and a half now I'm stuck at the same weight for the past 2 1/2 weeks. When will I loose again?

Remember to chew everything 20-30 times this makes it easier to swallow. Also make sure when you eat meat it is moist or you have gravy. I've had chicken legs and some breast meat but I found its easier to get the dark meat down because it has a moist texture...I like soft cook eggs but I like them with toast so those are out for me. I would imagine it would be easier to get that down.

I drank warm water, it took a little before it released but my book says if we get anything stuck to sip warm water...my Dr told me to eat 3. 1/4 cup meals a day and 1-2 protein shakes a day. My meals consist if all protein chili, chicken, eggs I like egg and cheese omlets with some kind if meat in it. One omlet gets me 3 meals. I've had filet mignon but you need to chew it until its very smooth. Same with pork. I haven't had any veg or fruits yet but miss them.

That s good to hear that your doing good. Be careful with pills that happened to me once also. I'm surprised your not on soft foods already I've been on them for two weeks already. Every Dr is different.

I had my surgery 12/10. One month ago today!! I'm down 36 lbs. But I agree do this for you, no one else. I've had only about 2 of my close friends not approve if what I was doing. The others are very supportive but I figure I'm doing this for me, to be more healthy and comfortable with who I am and although I love my friends dearly I don t need the negative feedback. I feel except me or its there loss.
