    As far as exercise goes, I'm just trying to do something each day (walking, house cleaning, etc.). Nothing too formal at this point. I have my 2nd pre-op visit monday, so it's getting closer. Starting to do shakes for breakfast and lunch with a good dinner. I used to do water aerobics at the ymca and it was fun but tough. I have just recently gotten a yoga dvd for people who are heavy so I'm gonna be starting that too.

    Doing good,...weak today but i think I over did it in this heat.
  8. Today is my Day 21 after surgery and I am back at work today. I am also on semi-solid foods but didn't do so well. I had a low fat cheese stick and three slices of turkey breast for lunch but ate way too fast and did not chew enough! I was miserable but eventually it went down. Lesson learned. Work wasn't too bad because I know I have tomorrow off being Independence Day, then back to work for 2 days then a weekend. I hope I am ready to be back to my full time life!---Shout out to my sleeve sisters, Christy, Erin and Tori, hope all is well and miss you guys!

    Hi... I'm doing pretty good actually. Just had my first nutritionist appt today and she said I'm ahead of the game, so that made me feel good. She wants me to start not drinking with meals and make protein 50% of my intake/calories, which is gonna be tough for me cuz I really like fruit and veggies for snacks. I know that's what it'll be like after surgery, but we won't be able to eat that much then. I'm not a big protein eater with the amounts we can have right now... oh well, I'll figure out a way to deal with it. I already cut out pop a few months ago, so that's under my belt and I've already changed my diet, so exercise is the next hurdle. I have fibromyalgia and some unidentified auto-immune issue so exercise is a tough one for me. I try to just do stuff that's not like a workout, like walks with my daughter and dog or cleaning house, etc.

    Enough of my stuff... how are you doing? Remind me where you are in your journey again...
  11. I am doing better -post op one week. I am still mostly on liquids, having trouble with smushie foods. Need to walk more!

    Hi there...congrats to you and Christy on your sleeves! How are you all doing? I just started my 3 month supervised diet so I'm thinking it'll be september or so when I have surgery. Excited, but it kinda seems unreal at this point.
  13. Hi Christy! I am actually very nervous today, we go in tomorrow. I know you are there earlier than I am so good luck and I will see you in the recovery or maybe the same room!

    I loved meeting you and all the girls, I can't wait to continue our journey as Sleeve Sisters!
