Agreed...It's def not easy and def not perfect but I would do it again in a HEARTBEAT!! best decision I ever made....only regret is that I didn't do it sooner! !

I can def eat more than 1/2 cup...I can prob eat more like 1.5 cups. Nothing but beef bothers me....I haven't tried sugar though. I had surgery 12/17/13 and I've lost 110 lbs since surgery. My worst problem is hair loss. I've prob lost 40% of my hair. Which I am praying will come back soon. I often wonder if I'm doing things right. My doc office doesn't give much direction for after. This is def not easy. I weighed a lot more than you guys to start with tho....and I hear the more you are, the faster you lose.

I take a probiotic with 50million organisms once a day...that really helped!! A nutritionist told my friend any under 25million won't do much.

Idk...but I went outand bought Nioxin shampoo and conditioner today!! And I am going to try to stop flat ironing my hair for a while. Shit is getting serious lol

4 months. I heard this is when it happens. That your body takes that long to catch up to that first month of little protien...and that it grows back BUT that doesn't make it any easier. My husband and friend say they can't tell....but I CAN and I think they're just being nice.

I am legit going to be bald just today my hair started super falling out. I could cry. I get it healthy is good...but its my hair!! I habe been taking biotin supplements since like week 4. I use biotin shampoo...I cut a foot off my hair week 4....and NOW it starts falling out. I found somthing call nutri-ox....has anyone ever used it?! Any way to stop? .

Oh and my friend sent me a pic of this....looks like its at Walmart...anyone ever try it? I'm on the hunt for it tomorrow! ! [ATTACH]43369[/ATTACH]

Hey guys!! Long time no talk...just wanted to share some excitement. I pulled out my "fat" jeans from November and put them on top of the ones I had to finally break down and buy.....so excited!! I promise they were matched on the other side. I'm still not confident enough to let people see how wide my "skinny" jeans still are. [ATTACH]43368[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]43368[/ATTACH]

Ohhhh god the dreaded booth.....so happy for you!! That is an awesome win!! I have been waiting to give that a try!!! I want to wait a bit longer just to be sure

Whoa whoa....let's chalk it up to a misunderstanding in interpretation on all sides and let it go Who has had some personal wins recently?! I must say I am on a high right now...I just crossed my mother f'n legs like a lady today! I havent done that in 10 years!! I was mid conversation...did it without even thinking and once I realized lost my train of thought because it was all I could think about!! Woot woooooot!

[ATTACH]41313[/ATTACH] Ok ignore the teapot stance...I was pulling my cardigan tight....I think I'm starting to see my waist again!! 75 lbs down!! Oh and jeans I bought years ago that never fit...I just took the tags off!! Woot woot!

I had rny on 12/17, I'm 75 lbs down since the pre op liquid diet. I have more to lose than you guys though. I heard the more you have to lose the faster it comes off. I eat between 500-800 calories a day, probably 60-70g of protien though. I have trouble getting more in. I avaoid carbs and sugar like the plague. Stacey I worry about you with the carbonation...I have a friend who's husband wouldnt give up beer and he has ulcers and internal bleeding a few times a year...it is not good for you anymore. Although I did swish some diet coke in my mouth the other day for the taste and the soda "burn" but I didnt swallow, I spit it out. Dont forget you cant compare yourselves to anyone else. We all lose differently. And stop weighing yourself everyday, it is counter productive...I now have my husband hide my scale. Im only allowed to use it once a week. Don't forget that muscle weighs more than fat, so working out you might not lose lbs but gain muscle. You guys can do it, just hang in there!!!

Im sorry you guys are having a hard time and not trying to interupt.....but i had to share this find. Omg so good. They taste like sun chips....13g carbs, 1g sugar and 8g protien [ATTACH]41284[/ATTACH]

I lied...its my fitness pal.
