  • Can you tell me how to do a reset
  • Hi, new to the group. I have just started eating Keto and love it. I was 100 % Vegan up until a year ago (long boring story) but i would LOVE to see if its possible to eat Keto and be Vegan. I would appreciate any info
  • K so today is day 5 of me eating strictly Keto and i am down 10 lbs and feel great. I actually have so much more energy i cant sleep. I had to order a book to help me learn all i can about eating keto because I honestly love it
  • So for it says im only supposed to eat 60 g protein, however im finding it hard to stay under that AND get all my other numbers to a good point. Any suggestions?
  • Yes i do regret it. Before my gastric bypass I lost 101 lbs on my own. I had actually told myself that if i lost 100 lbs in my 6 months of pre surgery weight loss i would NOT do it. However, when the time came i thought with the added "tool" that wls would give me i would do amazing. Well that did not happen for me
  • Where do I find the Bariatric Eating website
  • Im.so glad I came across this post, im going through the same thing. Just out of the blue I started getting hypoglycemic..never have I had an issue like this. And yes I had to start eating small snacks so I dont pass out. Im scheduled to see my Dr over this but I would love to know if the hypoglycemic thing is common with…
  • I would love to know the name of the moisturizer, I got coco butter that is supposed to help with the skin but it does not seem to be working.
  • I would LOVE to know your Tofu Taco filling recipe :-) I am a big tofu eater :-)
  • I am actually friends with Dr. Garth Davis on facebook and speak with him often, my biggest problem is that any protein shakes make me sick even the Vegan ones. I hardly eat any sugar at all and the shakes are to sweet. It's been so hard eating meat but as soon as I started eating it I started losing 2 lbs a day. It's just…
  • Well I did find out that I got drunk a lot faster then I ever have before, and have decided that "girls night out" will be just fine with a nice glass of ice water :-)
  • I know just what you mean, before my RNY I lost a little over 100 lbs, and I had my diet and weight loss down to a science and after my RNY I have no clue what to do with myself. Everything that worked before, does NOT work now and I hate it lol. I don't know my own body anymore. And the stalls are KILLING me ugggg.
  • I FREAKED out when I hit my stall at the same time as you, it will pass I promise. I cried for a week I was so upset. You will find out that stalls hit allot but they do pass
  • Can you tell me how you use the coconut oil for your hair please? I have lost 150 lbs so far and my hair has started falling out so I'm getting pretty worried. I use coconut oil for lots of things but never my hair.
  • I'm so frustrated, I'm at another stall already and im only 4 months out and I think this is my 3rd or 4th stall. Why is it the harder I work the less I lose? And im not losing inches either. I think I have hit yet another major depression uggg. All my nutritionist says is drink water and don't count calories just keep…
  • What is a 5 day pouch test?
  • I had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass on Nov.11.15 and the day of surgery I was a little sore and VERY nauseous and EXTREAMLY thirsty and I pretty much stayed that way for weeks, and even now I have to have water with me at all times. The day after surgery I hurt pretty good and was still very nauseous. But the more you are able…
  • Where can you get compression garment stuff?
  • gonzalesvikki I had my WLS on Nov.11 and I have had the worst time of things. Not losing, sick most of the time and so much more. I know this will pass, but my depression has gotten so bad that I am actually looking for prof. help. I sure know where your coming from, If you need to talk I would be glad to visit with you.…
  • I always drink bottled water and I leave it out so its room temp. I have learned NOT to drink big drinks for sure, but I find it strange that it hurts to even drink a small sip.
  • Well still nothing lost and gained another pound. I have called my Nut. for the last two days to figure out whats up and of course NO call back. Pretty lost and have no clue what to do. I no longer have my monthly cycle and am doing everything I'm supposed to. I have started walking a mile a day with light swimming twice a…
  • Ok good I'm glad it's normal. I have read about the 3 week stalls but never the 4 week gain. I was pretty freaked out. I'm going to put the scale away for awhile I think.
  • Ya my protein shakes are super hard to get down. I don't have very many choices since I'm Vegan so I'm trying my best to make it work. I can eat tofu now so that helps get some of my protein in :-/
  • I'm going to be honest..the whole reason I picked Gastric Bypass is because of the dumping syndrome...I feel I need that wake up call that what I just ate is NOT good. Strange I know but I didn't do this surgery for nothing. So I'm for sure using my WLS as a very useful tool :-) But I really am trying not to eat anything…
  • I measure everything I eat lol. I eat NO sweets or greasy foods AT ALL I'm terrified of dumping syndrome. I have done very well at stopping before I even feel full. Thanksgiving was a breeze thank God. I just stayed busy doing sing star with the family and playing with the Grandkids. It didn't even bother me that everyone…
  • Morning before surgery I was 297 on 11/11/15 After surgery I went up to 315 Today 11/22/15 I am 289 so I have lost 26 pounds since surgery. And as for tight pants...we have lots of swelling that will last 6-8 weeks according to my Doctor
  • It is a big adjustment for both of us, I just keep letting my husband know how much I love him :-)
  • Kimgravitt3 its a stick. It does leave white stuff so be careful, but I would not survive without it. Before surgery when I would work out and sweat if I didn't have it on under my belly I would hurt so bad.
