Congrats! I love my sleeve too! No regrets at all!

I am 7 months out and I feel like I am doing all the wrong things :(
- I should be eating/drinking 90 grams of protein each day, I get around 30 grams each day
- I should be taking my vitamins...

Congrats!! That is my next big milestone that I am looking forward too! I finally hit 217 this morning. By June I want to be under 200, I have 2 big weddings to attend where my entire family will...

I drink 2 protein shakes each day and usually eat something small for dinner. My typical dinner is chicken breast, pork tenderloin, refried beans, chili or turkey breast.

Thank you for sharing! I love your blog and pictures!

I am getting bored with eating the same old thing. I need more meal ideas that are high protein, low carb, and low sodium. Please share your favorite meal/recipe. I am a fairly picky eater, so I...

I often feel the same way you seem to be feeling, that the weight is coming off slower than others. I have to remind myself that I could have never lost this weight without the surgery and that as...

I feel the same way. I think it is the combination of water and protein in my case. I was doing really good drinking my shakes everyday, then my doctor said that my protein levels were too low and...

When I say "I can eat whatever I want", it is usually responding to someone asking me "what can you eat". I don't really eat a lot of solid foods each day. I drink 90 grams of protein each day and...

I weigh everyday too. I also weigh naked and at the same time each day. I don't stress if the scale flucuates a little, but I still like to know things are going on a daily basis. Plus, I use...

I have been experiencing severe pain on my left side of my stomach since Sunday. I thought that I may have pulled a muscle, but I haven't done anything to cause this. It has gotten worse, so I went...

Thank you, I will call tomorrow and order one! If I like it, I will have everyone in my family call and order one for me too!!

This is my biggest complaint since my surgery. I have tried just about everything and about every 3 days I am miserable. My husband tells me to go work in the garage that it always works for him! ...

I loved the video, thank you for sharing! You have had an awesome journey and look GREAT!!

My doctor requires that his patients take it for 1 year after surgery. I have to open up the capsule too. I think I have to do this for 3 months. I pour mine into a little bit of apple sauce, add...

I was doing 60-80 grams of protein each day until I got a call from the NUT telling me that my Prealbumin (Protein) was low at my last blood test. I now need to get in at least 90 grams of protein...

I hate buying new clothes when I know I will grow out of them soon, but I can't keep my current work pants up! Thank you for the tips. I will put post-its up to remind myself and keep everything...

I have really enjoyed my time off during my recovery. I took 6 weeks off, but my time is coming to an end. I return to work on the 13th and I am a little nervous about getting my fluids in and...

Congrats!! I can't wait to be under 200. I haven't seen that number since high school.

I have been doing pureed for the last 2 weeks. I eat 2 oz at a time. If I am still hungry, I eat just a little more. I eat 2-3 times a day and still drink 60 g of protein in my shakes. I eat egg...

I had 2oz of fat free refried beans, 1 tsp of salsa and 1 tsp of fat free sour cream and 8 wheat thin crackers...exciting...I think NOT! :-) I get my next food progression next week, can't wait!!

I took some cough medicine the other night and felt like I was drunk and very dizzy. I don't like feeling that way, so I don't plan on drinking for a while!

I like the Premier Nutrician Protein Shakes. You can buy them online, at Meijer, Sam's Club or Costco. Costco has the best price. The shakes come in chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. Strawberry...

I am still a little bloated and don't get me started on the gas! I was able to wear some jeans that use to be really tight on me though, so maybe the bloat is finally subsiding, gosh I hope so!

My best friend is pear-shaped and was sleeved in September of 2011, she has lost 60lbs, currently weighs 230lbs. She still has the pear-shape and quite a bit of skin on her thighs and butt. She...
