Wow! Thanks Melanie. I really needed that!
There are many different thoughts on this. I have been told by my doctor and nurses and researched that it can not stretch. There are studies in which they have done an ultrasound of a stomach just...
I'm 8 mos out and I still hear my stomach and sometimes it's really loud!
I can't say anything different that hasn't already been said. I went through this also. I promise it will get better! ****HUGS***
Good points and I needed some of these reminders to. :)
My husband loves to eat out and I don't really enjoy it that much. But when I do I always try to look for appetrizers as well. They tend...
Tinman thanks for keeping it real! I pretty much agree with you and appericate your posts. As for NASA I am with you 100% my husband is a huge NASA Geek, I use that term affectionately, and and...
The 3rd day is the toughest point. I know I went crazy and thought I can't do this and questioned my whole reason for doing it. Thankfully, it passed and I got through the 3rd day and the rest and...
Dead on, to the point, and its matches my thought process and actions through this journey! I've had steady weight loss since Oct 1st, no stalls. I eat chocolate and a few other starchy carbs in...
Your not alone I experience the same thing. Especially the weeks right after surgery but you will get through it I promise and it will be much easier! Your focus will switch to all the fun clothes...
I eat the coco covered almonds too and they are wonderful. They give me a taste of chocolate but its not loaded with sugar. If you want chocolate eat a few like M&M's. Tinman is absolutely correct...
I couldn't not live with out cheese I love it, but its all about portion control and eating what you can tolerate. Once again Tinman I agree with you completely! I still enjoy some of things I had...
I understand your fear but you'l get through it and be on your way. Congrats
Love it!
Good Luck to you!!
I always try to have at least walnuts, dried edamame, some other of nut in my purse. Honestly they are my go to when I need something to eat and I am out and about. BTW Tinman... I do the peanut...
Lauren what a great story! I hope you do see that UPS man again. On a side note my surgery was 10/1. Day before yours and it looks like you are doing great!! Congrats.
I would try looking at different types. Most people find that the protein drinks they like before they don't like after. Your taste preference will change. What worked for me was having several...
Favsusie, You are so right. I guess all we can do is what you said and continue to love them as we would want to be loved. I am still hopeful that he can make a change and that I will be there to...
Thanks for sharing your stories.
I have so many mixed emotions about the reactions I am getting from people, especially at work, when they see me for the first time after several months. I thought about this and I guess its because...
I am entering my 8 month post sleeve and things are going great for me. I do however have some concerns and have heard that sometimes having the sleeve can put a strain on a marriage and some of...

I love this post!
1- I can actually feel bones I've never felt before (Collar and tail bone)
2- All of my fat clothes are long gone from my closet, wardrobe completely turned over
3- People at...
Just one regret, that I didn't do it sooner. Like most said the first few weeks were hard and I wondered what did I do. Once I got over that I realized how much better I felt and feel today and I...
Another idea I saw posted on this site and I eat for a snack or when I am on the run is dried Edamame. 1 serving is 14g or protein. Its lightly salted and crunchy.
