I tell everyone. I'm excited I had it done. Lol. I haven't received one negative comment and talk to ALOT of people with my job. Some people are curious and ask questions, but everyone congratulates...

Why did your doctor take you off the meds? I have to take Pepcid twice a day. My doctor prescribed it in the hospital and they say it helps the stomach heal, as well as reduce acid. You might try...

I'm in Spring and have Cigna insurance. My surgeon's nurse said Cigna has one of the easiest sets of requirements. I used Dr Jason Balette of Surgical Group of The Woodlands. He was recommended by my...

I'm so sorry you're feeling this way. It's very hard to not have support, but you can do this!! I pray you have an easy surgery and I'm sending lots of hugs your way!

By the way, I'm not saying I didn't overeat, because I definitely did. I'm just say there are a lot of issues that the sleeve helps fix.

It's not always about eating less. Sometimes, it's about other diseases that make it hard for a person to lose the weight. Not only does the sleeve help you eat less, it helps regulate your hormones....

I think it depends on your starting weight. Or maybe your doctor is looking for commitment.

Look on Pinterest for fish recipes.

My doctor had me do a low fat diet. I lost 6 lbs in 8 days. They really just want you to shrink your liver.

A week, but I waited 2.

I'm having the exact experience. I'm 4 weeks out, today. I have stalled at 27 lbs, so I have to figure out what I need to change. I get my protein in and the minimum water requirements, so maybe I...

The stress on your body from surgery can mess up your cycle. I got mine the day after surgery, but wasn't due for 2 weeks.

Yes, it's pretty much the same. Mine called for the cream cheese to be softened and for baking powder instead of cream of tarter, but otherwise the same.

I think you'll be fine. I like cottage cheese, but with fruit. I, also, made cloud bread, tonight. I got the recipe off Pinterest. It was good with my hummus.

So, I finally made some cloud bread, tonight. It's different, but not bad. Especially, when you love bread and shouldn't eat it. It definitely tastes like eggs, but it's not like eating a straight...

I've been wondering how you've been. I'm glad you're doing well (aside from the booty issue :( )!

I'm on the puréed stage and scrambled eggs are my FAVORITE, along with puréed egg salad. I add a little water or milk and whip them before I scramble them. Today, I added some tuna to my egg salad...

Congratulations, Pam!! That's so awesome!

Congratulations!! I loved Jello before I went in to surgery and couldn't stomach it when I came out. Lol. Keep up the good work!!

I may make some this week. I'm on purees, but from what I've read it's not chewy.

Has anyone tried cloud bread? If so, what are your thoughts? TIA

I had both the first week or so, but it subsided as the anesthesia wore off. I sleep very well, now.

Congratulations on your weight loss!!

Great job!! Congratulations!!!

Today was my 2 wk follow-up appt. I've lost a total of 25 lbs since my pre-op appt on Sept 26 and it feels great!!! My knee pain is pretty much nonexistent, already. I thought it would take much...
