Thank you Monasongbird. Does this keep constipation away? Can u please give me a sample menu of what u eat for a day?

Thanks Peekboo! Do u still take miralax every other day?

Thank you Domawa. I will try miralax every other day.

Is anyone still having problems with constipation? I am wondering if the iron in my vitamin is causing this. I just started taking some miralax. Are we supposed to take that daily? Doesnt sound like a very good idea. What is everyone else doing? I am trying to stay positive about this surgery but between my 3 week stall and constipation I am very discouraged.

I started eating small gala apples last week. I just make sure I peel them and then cut them up. I didnt have any problems at all. I am 6 weeks out and have been on a 3 week stall I just cant seem to get past. Very frustrating. Can some of u who are also 6 weeks out give me a list of what all you eat in 1 day. A sample menu. I dont think I am eating too much. I dont go over 800 to 900 calories in a day. I would really appreciate some of your sample menus.

Sorry. This previous post was meant for Buffer!

Hi kbuska! I had surgery also on Oct. 8th and as of today I have been on a stall for 3 weeks. I went to my doctor yesterday and he says not to worry and to be patient. I am also doing everything to a tee and the scale has not moved. I am so frustrated. He even said that I am not at the point of slowing down on my losing yet. I sure hope not because I lost the first 3 weeks and that was it. Keep me posted on your progression and I will do the same. I would be happy to lose 1 pound at this point! What has your doctor said is causing this. Just curious?

Hello everyone! Is anybody out there suffering SEVERE constipation? If so, what are you doing about it? I had to do something today that is too gross to even discuss! Are you taking Fiber supplements, stool softeners (did not work for me at all. Neither did Milk of Magnesia)? Wanted to ask everyone here because I don't go back to doctor until next week. I am still in my 2 week stall also. Not very happy right now.

Thanks Peekboo! It is just so frustrating when that scale does not move at all in almost 2 weeks. Let me know what your doctor says because I don't go back until next Tuesday the 18th. Thank you

I was just wondering how many of you have hit the 2 week stall which starts right after your 3 week after surgery. It will be 5 weeks on Wednesday and I have not dropped a pound in almost 2 weeks. Is there something we can do to jump start our system again to get out of this stall. I have been very patient but I am ready to move on. Does everybody go through this? If so how do we get out?

Today is my 4 week mark. What is everyone eating for the pureed stage of diet? I need some new ideas please!

Today is 4 weeks for me. What is everyone eating on the pureed food stage? I need more ideas.

Hello! I am a October 8, 2014 sleever. I am from Houston, Texas and my doctor was Dr. Brad Waggoner! Highly recommended! The only problem I am having so far is getting all the necessary Protein. I need some suggestions if what everyone else is using! Currently I use Atkins shakes at 11 ounces each and 15 grams of protein. Very yummy!!! I have bought others but they all tasted really bad and would like some recommendations. Have any of you tried the protein Soups out there? What other liquid form protein actually tastes good?? Help!!!!!!

Hi! I am a October 8, 2014 sleever! Nice to meet everyone. I need some suggestions for Protein. The only one I am presently using is Atkins shakes with 11 ounces and 15 grams protein. I need more variety and don't want to keep buying brands and then not liking them. They are too expensive. I would appreciate suggestions!!

Can everyone please tell me what they are drinking to get all the necessary Protein? The only one I like so far is the Atkins shakes which are 11 oz. and 15 grams of Proteins. I need more variety. Please help!!

I just signed up on here and I would like to know how to go about getting one of these cards which allows me to get kids meals when I go out to eat. Anybody help me?
