Topic: RE: a topical day????
I have lost almost 33 pounds since surgery and almost 88 pounds since I first saw the bariatric doctor last autumn. ( AND almost 150 pounds from my highest weight in 2000) It is definitely a slow process. I struggle with eating solid foods quite a bit. I end up vomiting fairly frequently. But, some foods don't trouble me at all (like cookies). Fortunately, I don't have access to them very often. I try to make sure to get enough protein by making a protein drink with 50 grams of protein. I flavor it with Crystal Light. I make 32 oz. I drink part of it of my way to work and the other part on my way home from work.
I am thankful I had the surgery. It is keeping me from eating emotionally due to my DH's job loss and my pending job loss in June. I am definitely showing signs of depression. It is a scary time right now. I am not tracking my food intake on Fit Day, like I did before surgery. I should probably start doing so.
I swim moderately around 45 minutes a day 5 days a week. I am walking more at work.

Yep, I'm a dumper and it is NOT a pleasant experience. I have dumped on SF pudding, Carnation Instant Breakfast, 2% milk, Schwans No Sugar Added Chocolate Fudgesicles. I know there are more things but these are the things sticking out in my mind.
Wanna test it, try some whole milk.. betcha dump.

Topic: RE: Anyone else having a tough time with chicken?
I can't seem to keep any type of chicken down.. I was able to have a few spoonfuls of chicken salad over 20 minutes, but it didn't sit well with me.. so i am going to lay off trying chicken for a while..
Topic: RE: I don't Dump and wish I did
I don't think I dump either. I've drank juices with 20+ grams of sugar per serving, and even eaten a Clif bar without an issue. Are there particular things people tend to dump on?
Topic: RE: I'm no longer qualified...
Awesome! I'm at the same place. Co-morbidities are gone, and my BMI is too low to qualify. What a sweet thing to celebrate!
