I like the idea of checking in. I can see that people are changing their numbers but it's hard to even follow that. Maybe at the top of the post everyone can post I lost this much this week or whatever so we can encourage each other. I have finally broken through my platuea. I changed up my eating habits a little and changed my exercise routine (which I eased up a bit) and it's working. I'm so happy to finally be losing again!!!

I thought I had previously read about a website where you could create a playlist like the podcast but using your own music. I am looking for that. I can't stand the guy or the music on the podcast but love the running so I've just been watching the time on the treadmill but now I want to run outside and can't watch the time. Hopefully, someone knows what I'm talking about! Thanks!

Recommendations Needed (Dallas Tx Dr's)

I used Dr. Benavides and I really liked him a lot. I also love the fill center. Everyone has been super nice and caring.. They listen well and answer every question. My surgery was 15,000 total and that's with a year of care after the surgery. I was self pay, too. -
Are you guys counting calories, just trying to eat healthy and stop when full, doing low carb, etc. I don't know what to do? I had surgery 6 weeks ago and my first fill was last week. I've only been eating when I'm hungry and I'm logging every bite into Sparkpeople and I'm averaging about 500-700 calories a day. I feel like I should have more to be healthy but I'm not hungry. I am getting in about 50-60 grams of Protein in to. I was just wondering what others do? Some of you have had such wonderful result I want advice from the pros.

i have my initial consult with him next week and was just looking for some input on this doc. thanks! -
I have my initial consultation next week and have been reading through all these posts. From what I read here most people seem to eat real low carb. Is this the way that everyone eats or that you are supposed to eat to see the best results? Thanks for the help!
