I still see it in stores. I absolutely cringe when I see the advertisement on TV

Ok, Check out that tan and how ripped this guy is. That's tanning bed/booth spray tan, diet and lifting.

I was too embarrassed to send it back. Satisfaction guaranteed or money back..Ugh

The simply twist board. I'm all for anything that gets you moving and increasing your activity. I have not bought this.I do have a few friends that have.

olestra..lol that takes me back. Showing my age.

I confess, lipozene. Lose weight without changing your lifestyle. Really? I'm so embarrassed.

Oh please start the thread and let the fun begin.

*laughing* All I can do is lift with my hand and tuck the girls in a bra cup. It's not the brand name for me it's all about the fit and support. No need for the girls to hang to my belly button.

I have to laugh at myself. How many bariatric patient become health/nutrition nut's? I never imagined I would be this interested in researching healthy eating and exercise in my lifetime.

I'm cranky pant today. Three year old and no sleep...lol I'm not shocked that his family wanted to keep this quiet. It's the American way. All about profit. What's healthy today may change next week. Example - My dietician was all about the benefits of coconut oil to cook with. Now she says it's proven unhealthy and change over to avocado oil. I Remember when the big news was red M&M's cause cancer..lol I was doing the Atkins diet diet back in the day when it was popular. Oh my god, Eating hamburger patties with salsa, Hard boiled eggs and only green veggies until I was over stuffed. I did lose weight..But I could not sustain the diet. My soap box....The media and advertisement pumps us full of we are not good enough so buy this product. Marketing campaigns are prue manipulation. There are so many dishonest diets, pills and exercise equipment that promise rapid weight loss? People are willing to try anything. I hate to admit I tried lipozene. What a fricken scam.

I can relate. I can't quite find what works for the boob and side situation. I laugh because I found one bra that gave too much support the girls were lifted like a shelf to my chin. Others just gave more side issues. What I've found so far that works for me. Daisy fuentes full figure. I go up a size in band helps the side situation. The cups give s great shape. Larger straps on the shoulders. Four claps and larger back band. Thanks to @jess9395 for the suggestion. Victoria secret-VSX-Knockout sports bra. Zip front and clasp.. Separates lifts and keeps the girls held tight for exercise..lol

Sounds like soft food stage. I'm sure you are happy to progress into more substantial food. I hope it helps with your hunger. Congrats on your surgery.

Glad your feeling the burn. Way to go getting your 60min workout in.

Many of us have tried multiple types of diets that did not work or could not maintain long term. Enjoy your research. There is so much information out there.

26.4 lost is great! look at the difference in your neck and shoulders and arms. Black clothing is camouflaging my ability to see the rest. lol. * No need to use that statement to take naked pictures* I have "only worked hard for each pound lost" My body is "only getting healthier by the day" The scale is "only moving down to prove my weight loss is reality " Your hard work and it's paying off.

I've heard good things about bariastic. I'm old school I like MFP. It also does the pie chart, scans barcodes to add food, totals your exercise, has recipes, support forums and social media - Exercise log, tips and videos - challenges that you can win money for logging consistently. When you hit completed for the day. It says if every day was like today you would weigh...(gives you the number) I like that for motivation...

He was less than professional. All he needed to say was let's get you back on track. I'm sorry your feeling hurt. I don't do any follow ups with my bariatric program. I get my check up and blood work up from my family doctor. The great thing is your not on your own. You can contact another bariatric program out of your area. The dietician can mail or email you the food plan instructions. Many people here on bariatric pal are willing to share their diet instructions for you to use. None of us are perfect. Many of us have had weight gain. Getting back on track can be done. You have our support.

My fitness pal makes it easy for me. I hate math..lol Here is a few links to help you out http://www.myfitnesspal.com/ http://www.myfitnesspal.com/mobile/android tutorials on how to use the app. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=my+fitness+pal+tutorial

When in doubt contact your dietician. 1 medium apple - sugars 19 carbs 25. Even if you made it on your own. Apples have sugars and carbs. Feel free to ignore the following is it does not apply to your program or food stage. I used dannon light n fit greek yogurt. 7 sugars 9 carbs with the added bonus of 12 grams protein.

So you are not getting in any protein? Three weeks of no protein after surgery? Can I ask where you had your surgery done? Sorry I'm just a bit surprised. Never heard of this before.

Does your food log calculate your protein carbs and fats for the day? I use myfitnesspal. I'm not familiar with your app.

The dreaded stall. It's normal to have plateaus and stalls. Hit your protein goal, hydrate and activity/exercise. There is no magic in breaking a stall. It just takes time. You will lose weight. Keep working your surgeons and dieticians instructions. Read embrace the stall below. https://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/351046-embrace-the-stall/#comment-3952027

Hang in there. You will feel more satisfied as your diet progresses to real food. The first stages are rough. Yes, I felt hungry. Your stomach is not too big.....it's because you are on liquids and people are eating in front of you. This surgery is going to work for you. Trust the process.

Your stats say surgery in 2014. Is that correct?
