    Calling all my May 19th buddies

    Let me know how you like that website.. I love it.. went to my support group last night and their is a weight gain due to the water weight coming back after eating real food again.. but as long as you dont gain it should start coming off.. that web-site saves me.. even if I want to cheat I know how much I can taste of something as long as I dont go over my calories for the day.. or if you want to do carbs you can set it up for that too...

    MyFitnessPal.com I love this website cant remember if I told you... but you can record everything you eat and your exercise and it will tell you how much weight you can lose in 5 weeks from the day you enter you food and exercise.. this has helped me make good choices and makes me want to exercise more.. even though most of us are only 4 weeks out and have to wait 6 wks for major exercise.. it is a great great tool.. try it and good luck..
  4. Hi Allison...just checking in to see how you are doing? Did you get a fill yet?

    check in time... anyone else still feel like they are on their own...no fill yet could eat anything.... have to be real careful... or could gain.. but so far so good. think I am down another 4 lbs but will wait until I see my Dr for the real weigh in...
  6. Is that true? no pop corn? no corn on the cob? no potato skins?:w00t:

    Alcohol ?

    I am on my forth week and my dr said as long as you are not taking pain meds you can drink an occasional drink, just remember empty calories.. I drank wine a couple times.. no more than 2 glasses per time.. one time for a birthday and one time for a wedding shower.. I use a online calorie tracker for my foods and always add my wine in if I have it.. so that I do not go over my calorie limit.. now Beer???? dont think we can drink that.

    Anyone from WV???

    YEAP low carb diet lost on it too.. I get my first fill the 15th of July. I like Joy she is nice and the dietitian.. are you going to class Tuesday the 17th? I think that is when they have their class.. I go at 6:30 for the support group, the pre-op goes at 5:30. Dr Robarts does good work and you stay in the hospital over night and you get pain shots.!!! every 2 hours... yee haw!! no really it was not bad at all.. I dont know how Cabel does there program, but I really am glad I went with Dr Robarts Team

    Anyone from WV???

    Yes Dr Robarts... he is all professional and serious... but they have a great program and he is an excellent surgeon... I have no regrets... I am only starting my 4th week now.. so I have a long way to go... but so far so good!

I am going to buy a scale.. never wanted one in my house before.. now I want to see my progress and dont want to wait until Dr's appointments to see how I am doing//

    Calling all my May 19th buddies

    I dont get my fill until July 13th.. I go on vacation the end of the month and then my Dr will be on vacation.. so I have to be really careful.. Iam eating more regular foods now.. small portions.. but good foods.. Scared to blow this 3 weeks of hard work... My Doctor said to go for what ever I feel like eating now, that he knows my stomach can handle it.. they like to keep you on mushies to see how your stomach handles eating again .. and mine seems to be working just fine... I was like WHAT???? he said "You are in Control" Choose wisely...
  14. Did anyone else get red around their incisions when the tape was taken off? sites look good, just Red..

    Help on Mushy stage!!!!

    Tonight I had refried beans 2% cheese melted on them with a half avocado.. nice and mushy... and filling...my nurse told me to have that..
  16. This to is by far my hardest part.. I was always given a drink with my meals since childhood.. so at times I forget and I dont beat myself up.. I just decide to stop and finish eating then move on... I had to make a choice to drink my coffee first, wait 30 mins then have breakfast.. the other way around I wanted to drink coffee while eating.... make sense?? lol

  22. hum... have had normal since my surgery... but my dr didnt make us do the liquid diet before surgery.. wonder if that is why?
  23. Mine is more like a hic-up then burp... but I have that too
  24. Went for my one week and lost 11 lbs. Dont get my fill until July 15th at 1:30.. My doctor will be on vacation at my 6 week and I will be the next week so that is why Iam scheduled that late.. I will have to stay really on top of what I eat so I dont gain weight.. one more week until mushies... yee haw. I do get yogart and cream of wheat now...:smile2:
