I'm about to hit my lifetime diet phase and I'm so pumped. Feeling great and ready to try new stuff. Hit me with suggestions, recipes, sweet tooth helpers! Can I eat chips? Sugar free candy? What's a big no no? Dish.... Sent from my R1 HD using BariatricPal mobile app

This was helpful to me too. I'm 2 weeks post op of the bypass and I've noticed I can easily eat 4 oz of like mashed potatoes or refried beans. But if I pureed and added chicken or beef then I get a tight belly. Sent from my R1 HD using BariatricPal mobile app

Am I crazy for being paranoid and weighing myself every day? I think it's why I'm so anxious to workout but after reading the responses I feel better about taking it easy. Sent from my R1 HD using BariatricPal mobile app

I didn't think about the reserve energy. That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for that info! Sent from my R1 HD using BariatricPal mobile app

So before surgery I was killing it with exercising. I did cardio 3 times a week and strength training 3 times a week as well. I was doing so good that during my bypass surgery, my surgeon said he was shocked at the amount of muscle he had to work through. Which made me feel a little bad ass. So here I am, 13 days after surgery and ready to get back in the gym but I'm wanting to be smart. I started today with 15 minutes on the treadmill and 5 minutes on the bike (which didn't feel great). I feel like I did nothing, didn't even break a sweat. So let me ask you guys, what are you doing? Can I push it harder? Am I being impatient? How do I know what's too much?
