I lost track of my water today, but it was somewhere around 50 ounces. Need to get back on track with that. Unplugged for several hours today. Ate a few minutes ago. Had a brain fart and forgot.  Heading to bed now.

Interesting stuff…Reeger said reactive hypoglycemia often starts 2 to 3 years post op, which is right where I am. She also mentioned juice, which reminded me that the Bai had 5% juice. That may explain it!  I’ll still follow up with the doc to be safe.

I need to hear this ever so often!

All 3 goals met – WOOT!  72 oz on the nose

Thats true but…apps are easy to ignore. (Especially in situations where you are not paying attention to your phone, like at work.) Ulla is not!

80 ounces in, unplugged most of the day. I ended up having to get up and have a snack not long after I went to bed last night. I had my snack just before bed so I could sleep through the night, but before I made it to bed, my husband and I had an unexpected adventure. He was out back letting the dog have one last trip to do her business and caught…[Read more]

Awesome – thanks, I’ll do that.  This is a totally new thing, so maybe it’s some kind of build up or just a change in my crazy chemistry.

@sarahlareina you should listen to this podcast:

http://www.weightlosssurgerypodcast.com/082-understanding-post-bariatric-surgery-reactive-hypoglycemia/

It goes extensively into different factors of reactive hypoglycemia. It’s almost always triggered by intake of carbs. The thing is, though, that depending on the person, it doesn’t take that…[Read more]

Thank you for taking the question in the spirit that it was asked! (That was one of those “I really hope she doesn’t think there’s more to the question…” type of situation.)

For some reason the protein in milk is not enough to hold me against a second source of carbs. This is why I can’t do oatmeal w/ milk or cereal with milk, etc. It always…[Read more]

Thanks, Maria

Nikki, no I didn’t feel funny about the lunch, although I could have chosen wiser.  If I eat chocolate and drink something at the same time, I don’t dump or feel bad.  It was right after the dr visit, and I gave in to the stress.

59 ounces today, unplugged over an hour (enjoyed sitting on porch, listening to birds), ate 1 1/2 hours ago.

About 50 ounces again today. Stopped eating at 7:15 and an hour device free.

My non-negotiables  :

my walking. I need to not only for exercise but to reduce stress

My vitamins and supplements

my liquids

at the moment, grains and starchy carbs (other than dried beans)

The last item is due to the fact that I have learned the hard way that not only do those cause me to have a rapid weight gain with a very small…[Read more]

I’m finishing up ounces 61-80 at the moment. I’m quite sure I will be having more throughout the rest of the day as it’s just 3:20 here.

I’ve been unplugged for several hours already today.

My eating was all out of whack yesterday with the birthday party. Dinner was early and I didn’t eat much. Actually, I didn’t eat much at all yesterday. Which…[Read more]
