Are we allowed to drink out of straws?... I know we couldn't at first, but is like to use one to suck down protein drinks. It'll go faster!!

Thank you everyone. I keep comparing myself to other "losers" & I need to b proud of where I am

I'm getting so discouraged. I'm 3 months post op this week & I'm only down 42lbs. I've always "held onto weight", being PCOS, but I'm so frustrated. I suffered an ankle injury a month out & still can't exercise or walk a distance. I know I'm not meeting my protein or water goals, but I do try. I'm just losing hope.

Hungry but scared to eat...

I truly believe you look amazing. I call it "fat chick mentality"... We will always see ourselves as overweight. It's something we need to fix. Years ago I lost a bunch of weight & always saw myself as obese. I was FAR from obese. I'm only 2 months post & 49 lbs down, but this fat chick mentality is something I will have to work on. I wish u the best. -
I'm one week post op. can I eat a whole yogurt? Not sure if its considered a liquid or not.

I'm 2 months out today. I stall ALL the time. I'm down 32lbs. It's fantastic but from what I use to eat, to now... It's a drastic difference. I thought the weight would fall off. The scale will stay the same for a couple weeks, then...boom 5 lbs will b gone. I've been told to meet your protein & it'll help. -
Thank u... I'm going to try my best & take control!!

I am such a food addict. I'm 7 weeks out & it's finally becoming an issue. I'm "hungry" all the time. I know it's just head hunger, but its bothersome. I hope I can combat this. I just don't know how.

I've screwed up I will be 7 weeks post op tomorrow & I messed up. Crackers have been one of the only things that sit well in my pouch lately. I sat in front if the t.v. tonight & ate half a roll of Ritz. Has anyone else screwed up like me? I'm so disgusted w myself I hope I don't fail @ this. I obviously don't have my eating disorder combated.

I'm 6 weeks out & for the past week I'm unable to tolerate anything. Nothing sits well in my pouch. I don't vomit or dump. It just doesn't feel as if it sits well. Has anyone else had this happen?

Frustrated w/ Slow Loss
irishkat replied to MGteacher's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm right with you. I'm a slow loser 5 weeks out & I've lost 22lbs. I'm getting frustrated. I know mines from not making my protein goal nor my water intake. I've got to try better. -
