I'm just starting to notice the looser skin (and its not that bad) when I hit around 170 lbs which coincidentally is about 100 lbs loss from my heaviest weight ever. I see it in my upper thighs, arms and of course breasts. I had children more than a decade ago so that damage is set in stone But eventually I hope with toning or plastics I won't have to worry anymore.

Sugar detox is something else... Congrats!!! Sent from my Coolpad 3622A using BariatricPal mobile app

I don't know about the commercial laxatives but I often use a sugar substitute ( sugar alcohols, stevia etc) which consumed in higher amount act as a laxative. This gives the stool a looser texture and no pain as it is excreted. Please anyone chime in if the other stuff does the same. Sent from my Coolpad 3622A using BariatricPal mobile app

You'll fit more protein in that way so you'll get to your daily requirements faster, but with other non nutritional foods (if you are still eating them like rice, etc) I would recommend you chew less so less can fit in. When I am hungry but have already met my daily caloric intake I eat kale salad and chew a little less and BOOM I'm filled and it only costs me 50ish calories. But protein I have to chew for a while... Sent from my Coolpad 3622A using BariatricPal mobile app

Vent your heart out... We'll listen, and if you want suggestions we'll give them.

Put the scale away for a while if it causes anxiety ... instead measure other things such as food by the cup, water by the ounce, inches lost, ability gained, confidence boosted and time rewound.

Sing one round of happy birthday in your head when you chew , swallow when done . repeat for every bite. Sent from my Coolpad 3622A using BariatricPal mobile app

For me it creates a laxative effect in high amounts, for you it may be another food Sent from my Coolpad 3622A using BariatricPal mobile app

No I can't have most because of ingredients, so just real whole food fiber and it works great mist of the time but some days when I'm eating dense protein there is no room for leafy greens I notice it stays in longer so I purposely force it out. That's what I called it forced malabsorption because I'm certain its not fully digested. Sent from my Coolpad 3622A using BariatricPal mobile app

If it's someone you love (like your sister) you don't shoot them, lol. If its someone you don't love like (nosey Michelle in processing) you don't shoot them, lol. But one relationship you want to maintain forever so tread lightly even when frustrated, but nosey Michelle can get a piece of your mind.. Sent from my Coolpad 3622A using BariatricPal mobile app

Drink protein supplements until you can eat enough which will take months. Reach out to your team for help working out a plan.

Had a touch of anorexia as a teen, a touch of night eating every couple of years, interesting thread...
