Q:
is it normal to be able to eat a little more salad then other foods,because i can eat
A: If I could suggest measuring your food rather than eating unitl your full. This will train your eye on how much food you should be eating rather thanhow much food you can fit in your pouch. Good luck. both watermelon and lettuce have a lot of water in them. LEttuce is fiberbut iceberg has no nutritional value at all.When you ask, "am I eating too much" I think you have to take alook at whether you''re losing weight in the amount you are happy with, aswhat you''re eating

Q:
Please advise me on the first month after WLS...what can you eat?
A: 23 lbs in a month is not bad at all. At 6 weeks, I was at 24 lbs lost, butI was at goal by 6 months. At this stage, you should not be limiting yourfoods, unless you''re eating junk. Eat protein first, get plenty of fluidsand don''t cut back on calories. You are probably not getting enoughcalories. When I was slowing down on my weight loss, I found if I upped myprotein and added a bit more calories, I lost more. Teresa You are supposed to lose weight slowly...But you are losing rapidly...Yourbody is already starving without you trying to starve...
