kisersassy 369 Posted January 6, 2013 I really haven't stuck to a routine. I know what I have to get Protein wise and just try to get it in. I have been sick so much the past couple months with only about 2 weeks where I kind of ate. I love Kroger's low fat crackers. I will get a can of tuna and tablespoon of mayo and 5 crackers and have that for lunch or dinner. I sometimes eat a dannon lite and fit Greek yogurt blueberry or strawberry for Breakfast or snack. I use to love cream of chicken Soup but since gallbladder surgery last week the smell kills me. I am more or less starting at the beginning again as I was in Clear Liquids while i was in the hospital and placed back on full liquids now till I see the surgeon on Wednesday. I was originally placed on regular foods at 6 weeks post op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mullberry7 5 Posted January 6, 2013 Hello October buddies. My surgery was oct 9th. My heaviest ever was 308 My surgery weight was 262 Today's weight is 210! I worry I am not doing well or it is coming off to slow I am happier than ever. I feel so much better physically. I just wish I had more support in my real life. If I hear one more time. "Is that all you are going to eat" I might cry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kisersassy 369 Posted January 6, 2013 mullberry, I think we are all worried about the same things but if we look at it we are all losing about at the same pace. I just wish I could exercise like I am suppose to as I believe this is why I am not losing more but its physically impossible right now until I recover from all these procedures I have had since surgery. so far I haven't heard any comments I just get the baking chocolate cakes and eating chips and candy in front if me. even though I didn't eat it prior to surgery that much but when your main meal is a cracker and tuna ...

4SFLFDS 59 Posted January 6, 2013 I don't get the food comments either--only thing is when we eat w my mom, she constantly asks me if I'm feeling sick! Lol I tolerate most any foods--haven't thrown up any but have had couple spells of nausea or dumping. I feel like I've been really lucky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cookier224 238 Posted January 7, 2013 I have to say I am doinv great! DOS 10/3/12 220 down to 169 i can wear a size 12 sometimes 10. I feel great. I shop a lot LOL! But only low prices. I am hoping to get down to an 8. I never thought I would feel this way about myself. A guy at work says I even walk differently. My husband can't keep his hands off me. Exercise is my friend now. But best of all I can wear skinny jeans and my boots zip all the way up. 2 PhotoChic and Akc313 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I need shirts and bras mainly. I have 3 pairs of jeans. A size 18 that fits but is a little loose a size 16 same design and brand as the 18's that fit perfect and a size 14 that fit but is a little snug 1 PhotoChic reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
