    Wanted to ask you what your surgeon said about drinking Diet soda. Mine said it was ok. Then when I've talked to other fellow sleeves they say no. What's your take? Some have even said it will stretch your stomach back out. I was sleeved 11-2012.

    Yes, its really nice here right now, sunny but not baking! Getting ready to start the 2 week preop diet...ugh. So, what did you think about the hotel and facility in Mexico? Did you ever walk anywhere or go shopping? Did you have any complications...like with the incisions or belly button? Sorry for all the questions, its just getting so close the nerves are setting in.

Lessons I've learned 6 years post sleeve!

by AngelNP on 01-05-2019 at 12:40 PM
This is what I have learned over the past 6 years post op!

Your sleeve is a tool. It's not the end all. You must watch what you eat. I was horrified that I had lost weight from 213 to 162 lbs and then went back up to 195 (July 2018) Currently, I am at 169 lbs (01/05/2019) and more fit.

When you are able to eat solid food, I recommend a group on Facebook called Push For Your Better by Amy Smith. I am still a sugar/carb addict. This is the main reason why I gain

Toning Exercises

by AngelNP on 07-08-2013 at 01:10 AM
Welcome visitors,
I've been asked questions regarding exercising before and after being sleeved to help tone.

PRIOR TO STARTING TO WORKING OUT, YOU MUST CHANGE YOUR EATING HABITS: Stop eating the crack food (high carbohydrates, sugars, sodas, chips, candy, bread, etc).

START: High, clean protein (lean meats/protein shakes), vegetables.
WATER, WATER, WATER...do don't forget the WATER!

FATS: Health fats are the key to keep fat off

I've been requested to post before and after photos. I am the one on the furthest right in the group shot. I don't know how to add additional photos. It only allows me one photo at a time.

The before shot was taken August 2012 at my 30 year reunion with a high school friend (4 months prior to my surgery December 7th, 2012).

Have a great week everyone!

Dietary Protein "Eating Your way to proper protein, even when you don't eat meat"

by AngelNP on 02-25-2013 at 06:23 PM
This is article is by Luncas Dyer, Certified and Licensed Sports Nutritionist in the magazine Jiu-Jitsu:

I'm going to give the reader's digest version of the article. You body can only absorb 42 grams of protein at one meal unless you have a digestive problem, then you will absorb less. The need factors range from 0.5 (sedentray, no sports training) to 1.1 (heavy weight trainer, athlete doing "2 a days training"). Even though your body will absorb this much protein,

Zumba tonight for one hour & possibly hitting the gym (eliptical 30 min, light weights for arms, and ab workout!). Looking forward to starting my week off right!
