Eat right and exercise?

VSG 10/26/12 • HEIGHT 5'4"
GW = 140 lbs met Month 9
CW = 133
lbs
Loss per Month: 8 >  9 > 7 > SURGERY  > 15 > 10 > 10 > 10 > 7 > 5 > 6
  > 6 > 5 > 5 > 0

    

It works if you work it; it sorta works if you sorta work it; and it doesn't work if you don't work it.

If your body isn't acting normally you should see your doctor.

Yikes! This recent stuff must be so hard for you after maintaining so well for so long! I wish I had something useful to offer, but I don't. I also have bad constipation- lifelong issue- 2 Colace and Miralax daily here. Hungry all the time too- lots of low fat popcorn which has the added benefit of good fiber- and decaf coffee. And keeping myself very busy. I dread long term complications...

I hope you get it all resolved before your surgery.  You have waited so long I hope it goes PERFECTLY.
