How do you guys eat out...
kikicoates78 replied to TeacherMommy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I eat out all the time.... (At least 2 times a week) It's just what my family does. I it's order something protein based and set the other stuff to the side. Or order a chicken quesadilla and I just eat the chicken. It works. -

kikicoates78 replied to AlanaRN's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am a little over 5 weeks PO and I am only down a total of 32 pounds. I struggle getting my calories in, and still don't get enough water. I am just gonna keep trying my best. I too follow all the rules. Cut all the bad carbs, starches, and sugars. Just hang in there. It will come off. -

kikicoates78 replied to Bigdogdad's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

kikicoates78 replied to DaddyMarie's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
As much as it sucks, u have to make no excuses. U have to fit 30min in just as if it were a shower. A necessity for success. Good luck to you! Oh also increase water and protein for a week. I read that it bumped another lady into a high loss week! -

I started the week of and was on my last day when I had surgery. I was really worried reading everyone's posts as I am also clockwork. Thank goodness mine came right on time, BUT it was extremely hard this time. Really heavy flow with big clots. And really bad cramping. That I AM NOT used to. Hope it gets better. And hope u start soon!

Do you enjoy cooking still?
kikicoates78 replied to kajunqty's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have always cooked, and last night at dinner it dawned on me why I'm so fat.... I eat AS I cook. I have to taste to season. By the time dinner was done I couldn't even eat with them. I was already full! Where before I would still fill my plate and eat with them. So I need to learn to QUIT eating as I cook ???????????? -
How To Tell What Size Body Frame You Are
kikicoates78 replied to Proud2BMe's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Well... I do t think that's accurate. Lol I'm 4'11.5". I weigh 245at the moment. But my hands are extremely small. My fingers do not touch. But I know I'm small framed. I couldn't even have my children naturally because even fully dilated my bones were just too small. But maybe my fingers would touch if I wasn't over weight. Hehe -
17 weeks post op
kikicoates78 replied to Carissa.Logaras's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
It also depends on how much fat u have to lose. So I may lose more than u based on those stats alone. People progress at different rates. I wouldn't worry about the numbers so much as the way I look and feel. And u look amazing! Keep it up! -
