Chips?

[takroom 192]

Mrs sandy r....eating baked chips will not hurt your stomach. 17 weeks out they just want you to watch your carbs but you're fine. Congrats about your weight loss!!! Keep up the good work

Ok I know I'm not suppose to eat them, but I must confess I had 6 baked chips. Chewed them till they were mush. How does it affect the stomach? It didn't hurt & the 6 chips filled me up. I just want to know what it does to the stomach. I'm 17 wks out.

I'm only 6wks out...just starting out on my "solids" although my purees/soft foods blended together like solids! I have been craving some Pringles and Cheetos cheese Puffs (they practically MELT in your mouth! lol) but I'm so new to solids I haven't dared try chips to derail my retrained brain! I'm sure the only real danger at 17wks is the sodium/fat and possible carb intake. Enjoy every bite and dont' make it a habit, you should be ok![

I've lost 57 lbs so far

That's great - I have lost the same at 11 weeks out. What was your beginning BMI? Only reason I am asking these questions is surely your body must be in total starvation mode!!! Wondering how much it slows down weightloss ...

My BMI was 38 . Wow 11 wks out , your doing great , congrats !! I'm honestly not starving , I think my body is use to my eating habits now. But I usually have stalls that last up to 2 wks , I've had 4 stalls since surgery . Good thing is I'm still losing . Any advice to stop stalls would be great .

Drinking habits you mean ... haha. Your doctor still baffles me!!! I have had 1 stall at 7 days out when I was on liquid diet. Guess I'm pretty lucky i am not stalling, but for those that do stall they generally drop just as much weight as those that don't as they lose bigger amounts when it's over. My advice to stop stalls would be start eating!!! Most people increase their calories 1 day and then reduce the next. Also exercise helps. How many calories are u getting on liquid diet?

I do exercise , 3x's a week. Guess I'll increase my calories a little. I'm not on a liquid diet . I eat solid foods. I eat around 600 calories a day.

Couldn't find the Newman's Soy Crisps at Publix, Walmart, Winn Dixie, or Whole Foods. I did get 365 oven baked soy crispettes in 3 different flavors.....7 gr Protein for 19 crisps...Can't eat them all at once or I will be sick though. Meijer in Michigan has the Newman's in an orange bag, and I've seen them on line by the case. My daughter had to tell her 15 and 11 year old to stay out of them so I guess they must be good. Told by nut that I could have them at 5 weeks but am just trying them today. 16 gram carbs, 120 calories but I have to count protein.
