  1. Struggling with food

    I started adding things to my diet slowly like my surgeon instructed. Now I seem to want to eat unhealthy things again. Especially during the most hormonal time of the month for me!
    I went on vacation with my family and failed to plan my food for the time I traveled and I ended up eating things that was not low calorie and comfort foods that I don't usually have access to.

  5. 3 days post op

    I was sleeved on March 5 2015. I am having a hard time drinking my protein shakes and really do not have an appetite right now.
    I am still waiting to have a BM but I have been burping.
    This first night was the worse because of the gas in my chest and stomach areas. I am so excited that I am finally on the other side and no longer waiting to be sleeved.
    I just need to figure out how to get my protein intake in until my new tummy has stopped swelling. My issue is everytime I sip ...
