Cold section with the lunchables.

This is what is for lunch. It's good. 13 grams protein 160 calories and a nice variety. Found them @ Walmart. Very quick to grab & go. A must try!

I'm happy to report that the scale finally moved 1.2 lbs in the last two days in the right direction. So that puts me at a loss of 26.7 lbs since surgery day. YEAH! Also excited about a bm but I spend a lot of time in the restroom.

It was very yummy. I used the Kirkland brand canned chicken from Costco.

Canned chicken, avocado, & a little bit of light mayo. Mash it it up. Yummy!

No major loss. Still same 4 oz from yesterday.

Congrats ladies. Hopefully I'll have a nice drop like that soon.

Great for you guys. I hope to have a big drop like that soon.

4 oz. down is better than nothing.

Thank you all for sharing. I thought I was going through this struggle by myself. I thought I was crazy. Thanks again for sharing.

I need one too. Lol

Thank you so much for sharing. I'm so glad I'm not alone. I was beginning to think I was doing something wrong or the surgery didn't work. Thanks again!

Ok all. I was a little frustrated with this discussion board. I felt no one really cared about me. But being 3 1/2 weeks out I'm a overly emotional. So I apologize. Now I need real help. I've been stuck/fluctuating 4 oz for 6 days. I'm angry and frustrated. I feel defeated and like surgery was a waste of my time. I'm not getting all my protein or my water in. I do walk 45 minutes a day. Don't know if I will today. I wasn't feeling so great yesterday. So am not loosing because I'm not getting all my water & protein in. Yes I need to get rid of caloric drinks and I'm doing my best with that. But when I eat or drink it still isn't that much. What is going on??? Please help!!!!

Is everyone getting both all water & protein in?

Sorry never heard of it. If you find out please let us know.

Thanks for the prayers & kind words. My Surgeon wants me down another 20 lbs by April 22. I'm feeling like a failure. I've not lost anything in 6 days.

Egg drop soup for dinner tonight. Not feeling so great.

I'm not feeling do hot either. But here is my full disclosure. I've been drinking caloric juices. I feel really bad about myself. I can't expect to change my horrible habits so quickly. For those of you that pray I could use all prayers I can get.

I also recently heard that alcohol affects us differently now. Because you don't have all the enzymes to process it more of it goes directly into you intestines and your blood level rises faster and it takes longer for it get out of your system. I would be very careful even after you heal.

Tonight sucks. I want to eat everything! This stupid stall is driving me nuts. I just want to shovel food in my mouth. UGH!!!

Tried the app. Love it. I have a hard just sitting to eat. I drink my protein @ work so it works well in reminding me to take a drink. Thanks so much for sharing Also I'm not sleeping well. Does anyone else have this problem? My tiredness is from lack of sleep but I can still feel a huge lack of energy. My surgeon said that some people can't sleep because of the energy you get after surgery but I'm still sluggish during the day. What the heck?

When I eat or even drink my protein shakes feel something in my throat. I found the best protein shakes made by Shamrock Farms. I get 30 g of protein in 12 oz. How long should that take me to drink. 30 mins or 1 hour. This Wed will mark 3 weeks for me.

Will do. Still very new to food so I wasn't sure what was a fair amount of time. Thanks again.
