I, too, am still struggling and I am 3 1/2 months out. I am still having difficulty with solid proteins. What are you having a struggle with? Post it, and I'm sure some of those that are farther out can help. This is a great place to bounce things off of people who have been doing this a lot longer than us. Good luck, and it really IS worth it!

I need more than "struggling".....are you pushing protein? Are you pushing water? Are you increasing your exercise? Cut the carbs/fats...no pasta, rice, bread or potatos....limit the carbs AND THE fats & sugars.....and don't weigh every day...it will REALLY knock the wind out of ya.....you are early out, and it will take time to get your routine down....keep your eye on the prize!!

Welcome to the board, thank you for joining us.
Congratulations on joining the Losers' Bench, and on the wonderful weight loss.
It will take time for you to get used to the new routine, after all, how long were you following your *old* routine pre op, Rome was not built in a day, and nothing will fall into place with the bat of an eye. 
Just keep up with your protein and your water first.
(((((((HUGS)))))) May your journey go well.
