Omgggg thanks you guys! I’ve been doing everything right. Exercising and eating only what’s recommended. I was in tears last night. But I will stay the course ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I don’t wanna seem weak or greedy but I’m so hungry and I’m only 9 days out of surgery!! I’m tired of clear liquids. I honestly feel like I’m losing my mind. I know it’s90% in my head but this food addict is dying for a fix😞😞😞😞

Everybody is different and from experience the more you weigh going in determine how much and fast you lose. Bigger ppl lose more faster but there’s no cap to how much you can lose honestly. Exercise more than you consume. Walk constantly and still well hydrated! Water is very important. A leak can make you stall. Good luck sweetie -
THANK YOU! ♥️ I’m honestly doing much better. I’ve balanced my diet to include as much protein as I can handle and the hunger isn’t my constant companion anymore 😂

Im scared of gaining weight through this crisis
DesperateEC replied to jasmineinmymind's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
I know this sounds weird but clean. Clean up a room at a time. It’s exercise and you’re doing your part keeping you and your family safe. I can totally understand the depression and eating what’s available but surprisingly all the low fat and fat free stuff are still on the shelves 😂😂😂. -
I don’t know if it’s possible after surgery but I know before surgery we’re able to shrink our stomachs by eating small meals continuously. The key is to try and go back to healthy small meals. Try to snack on nuts too. The can hold the hunger monster at bay. You’ve done amazing and obesity is a disease! Food is our addiction. There’s always a way back! I’m sending you all my well power!

Omg me too! The not being able to wipe literally sent me on a tailspin! My husband had to do it for me and I lost it. Every time I want to give up I remember how helpless and ashamed I felt!
-
I have my appointment scheduled tomorrow. I’m hoping he can help because lord knows I’m trying to get the best results! And thank you! I’ll try this one.

I think my problem is the lack of protein 😞😞 the shakes don’t stay down and I hateeeeeee vomiting so I’m afraid to even try other brands. I’m literally on water and broth ( chicken) 90% is in my head but 10 % is hunger because of lack of protein. I’ll figure it out. I’ve been outside for a bit today and I’m in a much better mood 😌

I’m only 9 days out lol I’m still on liquids 😞😞
-
They get itchy that’s normal and I’ll try that because I’m in deeeeeeppp depression. I know it’s head hungry because all I want is pasta 🍝🥴🥴
-
Thanks sooo much! Will definitely do that. I think it’s because I’m not taking in protein but the shakes are terrible lol the incisions don’t hurt unless I sneeze but they do ITCH lol! And good luck to you too sweetie
-
I need to start doing that. I’m basically on just flavored/ regular water, Gatorade zero and chicken broth 😞😞 I was hoping this phase would speed by put living in a house with my husband and 3 children with full appetites is killing me!

I’ve tried that and it’s literally not helping at all. 😔😞 -
I need a pcp PLEASE
DesperateEC replied to DesperateEC's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Exactly! I was already embarrassed to asked but after falling and scraping my knee trying to exercise I knew it was time. I even cried out of frustration and he still ignored me completely.😥😥😥 I don’t wanna take a chance and be embarrassed again without first knowing if a pcp is open to surgery for weight loss -
Hi, I’m desperately searching for a pcp who after being under his or her care would write me my medical necessity letter. I’m crying day and night and feel so lost. I’m in south Florida please

I need a pcp PLEASE
DesperateEC replied to DesperateEC's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
They did but that pcp brushed off my request for a referral despite me meeting all the criteria. He honestly did pay me much attention. I’m hoping to find one that has listened -
Hi who’s your pcp please? I’m desperate for help in that area
