Finally feeling better today. Had a massive headache yesterday' date=' and for some reason, was really down. Spent most of day laying in bed. Didn't come near my protien or Water goals. Headache is gone today and I'm gonna focus on hitting goals and staying positive. Some days it is just so hard...[/quote']

I'm so thankful I've found this forum as a outlet cause I feel like u..I lost track a few days and didn't get nowhere near goal with my Protein. Revamping it tho this week and gonna hit it hard. If u ever need to talk I'm here..for u and anyone else. We are in this together and all kinda have the same ups and downs

Hope everyone feels better soon! I hard some bad days but backed off to liquids for a few days and then felt better. I think in my case I pushed the foods too quickly at the beginning.

Meatloaf sounds good. Think I will make that tonight. I use the recipe on the back of the Lipton Beefy Onion Soup mix box. My family loves it and it is easy.

Girl, I have been stuck on 274 for two weeks now. I don't know how it happens when were only eating appx 700 calories a day. I'm two months post op, I thought I'd thought I would've lost a bit more than 45 pounds.

oh well, its not a gain...

So I had an appt with my pcp today. Here I thought I was doing well and he says he expected me to be Down more pounds. it was kind of defeating. So needless to say my 45 minutes on the treadmill or bike is getting doubled starting now.

Update on Gallbladder scan....no stones but i got sludge in there. They called it biliary dyskinesia. Have only had very mild left side pain. Dr. said the sludge "could" turn to stones. I don't know what to do??? Should i get it out or wait and see if stones do form? Also, unrelated to gallbladder. Today my pouch is grouchy and crampy....first time since surgery i've had cramps in my pouch that were this uncomfortable.
