Thanks Julia..I think my main mistake was eating solid foods too fast. I started incorporating solid foods after about 2 weeks after surgery, and that is when my weight loss has stopped ever since. On a typical day I eat too many carbs, and since I am not the greatest cook, all of my meals are based on having a carb dish on the side or having my protein mixed in with my carbs such as hamburger helper (as we had the other night)...It's like, I know what i am doing wrong, but cooking is my hardest challenge on top of school and everything else. The past week I have been cooking healthy, but i need more spice in the kitchen department lol..i'll learn eventually i guess.
As for exercise, I go on the treadmill for 20 minutes, on an incline at 2.3mph..i go on whenever i can usually on a daily basis but not for the past 2 days.
