Changed my eating. I also changed alot of my attitude after seeing how much my emotions play a roll my life, including eating and exercise. I was always one to let my emotions run my life, but I am now daily taking charge of my life and not letting outside things influence the important things I need to accomplish daily, like healthy eating and exercise. Thanks to all of you who answered me when I was looking for help, it did help!

I"m sure every surgeon's plan is different. The plan I follow allows a total of five 1/2-cup servings of starches (1), fruits (2) & veggies (2) and six 1-oz servings of meat/protein. I am not able to eat all of this! I can only get in about 1/4 cup and can usually only get in my protein servings. If I decide to have a serving of fruit or veggies I usually have to eliminate a protein. The tablespoon thing doesn't sound right to me- I would ask you nut or surgeon.

I'll usually either clean or read. jacie

My doctor's plan says 3 tablespoons 3 times per day. 1/4 C at 3 months.

You just had surgery, you couldn't possibly be doing anything to yourself that would make you gain weight at this point and as it is, you didn't put on much weight. Could you be getting your period?
