Had my first training session with a weightlifting coach....Man am I sore already and Im sure it will be worse tomorrow...
I go back friday to session 2...oh lucky me...lol
I hoping to firm up a few places, since I dont have the money for plastics....oh hum...will see about that.
However my trainer has also told me that he will only work with me if I eat....I know that I have some issues going on and have been trying to work on them....so please dont get on to me....I am trying to eat more. I just didnt think that this would happen after surgery..ya know??
Does anyone have any clue as to how many cal's and good carb's we should be taking in a 6 months out?? I have hit my goal and the Dr's goal, so now I need to maintain and not lose anymore....it seems like the more I put in the more I loose....why is that??
I know that some of you are done with me and thats fine, but now Im to that point that its is scaring me a little too....
oh FYI....did just eat a few bites of steak, a half cup of carrots, and a quarter of a sweet potatoe....didnt like sweet potatoes before...but now there not too bad..at least there some sort of carb...
Sorry for such a long post....
Hugs...

wow weight training? that is hard. 
why would you think that some are thru with you?  the reason you lose more when you eat is because your body needs a certain amount of food to work on so when you eat it isnt starving so it uses the food for energy ...does that make sense...
im not sure what the totals should be ....im sure your trainer will know....i would think it is about 1200 calories... and no more than 100 carbs a day ...that is good carbs i think? not sure.
seems like a lot of carbs doesnt it? i wish i had your problem of losing weight without trying lol

Thanks Jan....
As far as being thru with me....I just feel like I have done nothing but whine, whine, whine when I do post....I cant explain it...do you know what I mean....??
As far a losing as fast as me....No ya dont wish that....Its scaring the crap out of me!!
Its really hard to explain to people that have never had this surgery...Im just not hungry at all...and what I do force down is just because I know that I have too...food has no interest to me now. And to be truthfull I have no desire to eat at all...
What's really sad is that my trainer spotted it right off the mark...told me that he would work with me one more time...because he thinks that Im on the wrong track with bad stuff going to happen to me physically...
He told me to go tonight and cook a good high protein dinner right...meat and brown rice and veg....I just couldnt get myself to pick up the rice...in my head its a NO NO....So how do you fix that??? I absoultly cannot get myself to eat a carb to save my life....
Its really sad ya know....How all my life I have wanted to be thin....and happy...well now that I am....I dont want to have other issues...Its really hard to explain..Im sorry, I know that its a mind game that in someway has reversed its self, if that makes sense...
Hugs...

Have you thought of seeing a councilor? I'm not trying to be mean or anything but if you don't eat what your suppose to you can get very sick with dire consequences.  I would not want to see that happen. Some people have to get help for food addiction maybe you need to talk to someone about why you don't want to eat now.  You need carbs to make your brain function.  You need protein for your heart and muscles and healing.  It would really suck to go threw all this surgery and then not be able to take care of yourself.  You can do this, you had the guts to have the surgery that's hard and now the hardest part is taking in everything you need.  I hope you continue to do better.  Lou ;)
