    Re: What Da Burp!!

    That made me laugh! I burped as I was pulling up your post! I'm almost 2 years out and it still happens but remember it being REALLY bad in the beginning so it will get better. I am not a medical...

    Re: 2 Years out, and not there yet...HELP

    Sweets for me is the most slippery slope, even more so than salty foods. So you ate the cake, I have been known to buy those mini cakes or cookie dough just to eat them (yes, after surgery since...

  4. Re: After 2 - 3 years after the sleeve, is your stomach still restricted.

  6. Re: After 2 - 3 years after the sleeve, is your stomach still restricted.

    At my lowest I weighed 172 so I was down 53 lbs. I slipped into some of my bad habits and gained some weight back when life got in the way. I don't think I'm typical but this is where I'm at. I'm...
  7. Re: After 2 - 3 years after the sleeve, is your stomach still restricted.

    I'm 2 years out in August and there is still restriction....depending on the food. When I eat protein, I can probably eat a 6 oz burger (max) but popcorn or pretzels (slider foods) I seem to be able...

    Re: Caffeine...A GIFT FROM GOD!

    I drank coffee every morning before surgery and cut it out about a week prior to my surgery. I can no longer drink regular coffee. The acid kills me, when I drink it there is a growling feeling in...

    Re: do you use an app to track intake?

    I have Calorie Counter on my Android phone (free app). What I love about it is the food scanner. You can scan a barcode and it will load in the nutritional information for you. :)

    Re: Obsessed With Weighing Myself

    I weigh the first thing every morning- and don't freak out if I gain a bit (up to a pound). In fact, if I've been hovering around the same weight for a few days I might skip a day or two. Relax,...
