Just bumping this back up as tracking really helps me monitor intake and was wondering if anyone else is keen to be on MFP? Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I can't stand them, so I use a powder to make Protein balls and then eat the rest of my protein to make my goal for the day. It is doable without over eating, but not many people do it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Try taking a probiotic everyday, I found this helped with prevention though rather than to treat it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I find that a combination of exercise and the right foods help. But have you taken measurements, cause every time I get annoyed with the scales I take measurements and try on clothes that haven't fit me in a while and they either fit or are too big. So that helps me feel better when the scales aren't cooperating lol. I also find that I physically feel better when I exercise, even if it's just a walk, but I didn't start any kind of exercise till 2.5 weeks post op. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yes, mine slowed down considerably, to about 2 lbs a week. Which is still awesome, just hard to adjust you when you get used to 2 lbs a day. But that being said I'm now 7 weeks out and have lost 5 lbs in 2 days. So I think it takes a while for your body to adjust to real food again. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It took 2 weeks till I was completely pain free. The second week was way more bearable than the first. Maybe you need some better pain drugs to get you through?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

You did @@deekel8 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

It should, mine still shows it. But it doesn't record your food and show the pop up unless, as a female you eat 1000 calories or more a day. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Okay ladies, I'm just over 5 weeks post op gastric sleeve, including my pre op diet I've lost 20kgs or 44lbs. However I've noticed that every time I get my period my weight loss stalls for the whole 6 days. I'm not super worried about it but just wanted to see if this happens to anyone else??

I've lost just under 50lbs including my pre op diet. Trust me @@missdeeAus, I'll PM you a photo of me with less clothes if you want lol?? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I've had little NSVs, like fitting into my jeans again. But today I tried on an outfit that hasn't fit me in four years and I look better in it now than I did then I'm so glad I tried it on today as my weight loss had really slowed down, which I know is normal, but still made me a little sad. Height - 6'3" HW - 140kg or 310lbs SW - 132.5kg or 291lbs CW - 118kg or 259lbs GW 80kg or 175lbs Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

That's cause I'm wearing a flowly top and I'm really tall. You should see me without clothes eeee gads lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Oh and my surgery was June 7th so 6.5 weeks post op. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

The bowels get better when you move to real food, well mine did. But I use ducolax when they weren't as it stimulates your intestines rather than being a straight up laxative and it's a liquid. You're doing really well, keep it up ???? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

If it was done in fun, like we did it, that wouldn't bother me at all. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Lol, yeah I think we should include those. Maybe beer/alcohol, sex, food, sport, video games, TV lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Lol, you forgot beer or alcohol lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I bet the one for understanding guys is twice as big lol Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I suppose stall is the wrong word, cause the moment my period stops the scales move again. I'm not super stressed about it just wanted to check if this happen to other ladies. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

That's awesome bookfool Well done! Just added both of you ???? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I use Ducolax, it stimulates peristalsis (which is your intestines contracted to move stuff from your stomach to the other end) it's awesome and a liquid and doesn't taste that bad Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
