Went to a baseball game last night. I'm 9 weeks out and had my first ballpark hot dog ( no bun) ;) and handful of peanuts! It felt good to feel normal again and not have to take my Protein Shakes to the game. Thus far down 67 lbs,no issues.

Side note; this delicacy will not be a regular part of my diet but we do have to enjoy the pleasures of life in measured proportions.

Currently now exercising 30-60 min six days a week. Taking in around 1000 cals/ 80+ grams Protein a day. No carb counting. Losing approx. 3 lbs a week.

Having an issue! Mine was 4/17. I'm down 42 however, I'm slipping into my old ways. I ate a candy bar and I just prayed that it would make me sick. But it didn't..... it was yummy. And now I'm scared that I will eat one every day. My Protein is low due to Protein Shakes make me throw up. Of course the good for you stuff I can't handle but any thing that is bad my tummy can handle. I'm loosing hope at the moment. I know what I need to do but afraid the little devil on my shoulder is going to win. That tricky little f***er! I do use my fitness pal but I only have 1 friend on there and it's my mother in law! And she loves to feed people. God help me.. I'm a mess.

I was sleeved on the 22nd of April and have lost 21 pounds. I'm having trouble with my large incision. It continues to break open spilling blood and infection. So I can't walk on my treadmill yet. My surgeon had to reopen it and clean it out today. No shower for 3 days and no walking for 3 weeks. Hell with no meds!

I am 3 wks out and have 2 open draining wounds about 2 inches deep that i have to pack twice a day with guage. Its super frusterating cuz i cant do any exercise or move my upper body much so i know how you feel.

Surgery 4/12, 245 lbs

Today, 213 lbs

32 lbs in 8 weeks

I'm very happy with my progress but every once in a while I find myself munching on Doritos or some other junk food. The good news it's not half the bag like it used to be, just a serving! So I log it into MFP and move on.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
