    Frustrated...

    I have upped my calories this past week, and have been losing wonderfully! I think sometimes, people just aren't eating enough!
  4. I'm almost 4 weeks out and have started trying different foods. I can eat anything, BUT I definitely can't eat as much as I used too. I also very rarely feel hungry.
  5. I have been craving my favorite restaurants' salad for weeks. I want to have one before I get my first fill, which may or may not be March 14th. Do you have any problems eating salad? Should I have them chop the lettuce?

    It happened AGAIN!

    1500 calories isn't exactly pigging out. Lol. I shoot for 1400 a day,and the past week I have been able to eat more than the first 2 weeks after surgery, and this weeks loss is going to be much better than last week.

  8. Give it a week. You'll probably have a decent loss next week.
  9. Thrift stores, garage sales, TJ Maxx, Ebay, Friends...

    Tricare Approval

    Just have them document the things you mentioned, and you should be fine. My approval was really smooth with tri-care.

    Realize-C band?

    I have a Realize band but I have no idea if it is C?? My surgery was in Palm Springs.
  12. My surgeon said he repaired a large hernia. My pain was only bad for about 3 days.
  13. If you are happy, then go with it! Great job!
  14. Losing fast is thrilling of course, but it's not realistic. I've decided as long as I'm not gaining, then I'm happy!

    I'm kinda worried...

    If your pee is bright yellow, that is from Vitamins. Dark yellow from not drinking enough Water. I'm 3 weeks out and have never gotten a refund. Lol
  16. Does anyone else have gas pains all day?. I was fine when I was just doing thin liquids, but I'm about to move on tomushies, so I've been trying some new things. As soon as I eat, I have gas pains in my back for the rest of the day. Will this eventually stop happening?

    2weeks and 3 days post-op

    I have no idea, but I am scared to eat scrambled eggs! I DO eat hard boiled eggs and have not had any problem with them.

    Another word for restriction

    Squeezy peezy?
  19. I've been sticking to about 1/2 to 2/3 cup per meal.
  20. Did your doctor give you a schedule to follow? I saw mine at 1 week, and don't see him again until week 7. By then I will be on regular food.

    almost passed out and got sick

    If your incision looks gross enough to make you almost pass out, maybe you should have it looked at? Mine haven't every really looked gross. I had glue too.

    Gas pain

    I get it too, in my back and left shoulder blade.
  23. Fabulous!!! I'm happy for you!!!
