Wanted to clean my whole apartment. Got my pantry and most of my kitchen done and my belly feels like I did a million sit ups. I still have so much to do. Ugh!

Yes I am. I can't stand them but I do take them every day... I feel like they make up a meal on their own. Lol

I took RJ's advice and broke up my morning Protein Shake into two and I've added a third for when I'm driving home from work in the morning. So I'm getting a minimum of 65g just from shakes. I was also only eating once a day and have been trying to make it twice a day plus three shakes and 2 or 3 just water/hydration breaks while at work. Moral of the story..lol upped my Protein and Water and I feel better! Thanks everyone for the advice.

I am only allowing myself to weigh once a week. For the Friday weigh in thread. That's it. It's hard but I don't want to be taunted with the numbers game. I'm really struggling with exercise. It's 100+ degrees so I haven't been walking my babies. I have a treadmill that got buried by my ex during my surgery. Must find another way to work out!

Find a mall, they are air conditioned and lots of walking , for no charge

I stalled at week 2 for a full week.

I too seem to have stalled this week (Week 2). I hope it doesn't last long!

June 24 here! I was in the hospital for 6 days due to staph infected hematomas. I had three and my surgeon had never seen anyone with more than one! I'm still on strong antibiotics, but already on regular food. I had nothing in the hospital so I guess my pouch healed quicker. I was doing really well with food until today. I ate something stupid (Pop Chips) and am pretty sure I'm having my first case of dumping. It's mild - mainly just nausea and rapid heart rate.

I have most of my problems with liquids. Before surgery, I loved Water, Vitamin Water, Crystal Light...now I can't drink any of it. The only liquid I can drink that doesn't make me nauseous is tea! Weird!

Anyway, though I had some complications and am sick as a dog right now , this is the best decision of my life. I've lost 27 lbs since I left the hospital and other than today, some off and on nausea, and pain from my incisions, I feel great. Well worth it.

I too think I hit a stall. I am 2 weeks so I think it is pretty normal so I am not stressing too much. It is hard for me to tell though because I am traveling and away from my scale.

I found Healthy Choice fudge pops at costco. They are delish!! They have 100 calories, 1.5 fat, 4 Protein and 16 carbs. That's 3 over what my NUT wants me to have, but they have 5 Fiber, and only 5 actual sugars, so I am going with it and being thankful that they have 4 protein!

Went for my 4 week follow up appt today. Down 24 pounds which is great but I've only lost 4 in the past 2 weeks. Why is it we have to beat ourselves up so much? Surgeon is happy but we're watching for stricture because I seem to have solid food "catch" too often, or maybe I'm eating too fast even though I don't think I am. HW 247.5, CW 221.
