Im Hungry Every 2 Hours- Only 27 Days Post Op...?!?! Is This Normal
bikerchick519 commented on ahaliace's blog entry in ahaliace blog
I think I'm hungry a lot too but it's not like the hunger before and I just try to make healthy choices, protein foods. I found that protein snacks like Kays Naturals protein chips and protein pretzels are a great crunchy snack. I get them from netrition.com. -
Trying To Change My Life :)
bikerchick519 replied to CindyGo1313's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I had my surgery in November and I've lost 58 pounds. It is a definite life changer, for the best. I wish I could have had it done at your age. You will be so happy with the awesome results. -
So busy remodeling my new house I haven't been eating right. Ready for things to get back to normal.

November Sleevers 2011 Roll Call Shoutouts
bikerchick519 replied to 100%Sleeved's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I agree that it's rude to think people are lying about their weight loss. I feel like I've been losing slow and steady and I've lost 53 pounds. I was 257 to start and now I'm 204. I don't work out a lot now that I'm back to taking classes but I try to atleast twice a week. I appreciate the people on here who are supportive and ignore the ones who are jealous and can't just be happy for others. We all lose at different rates. -
Stopped Losing - Need Encouragement
bikerchick519 replied to BroadwayBaby's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm wondering how many calories and how much protein you are getting. If you are working out that much you need to make sure you get enough. I recently increased my calories and protein and was a little scared at first but the weight loss has been steady. I use mfp for all my food logging and it really helps me stay on track. -
Special K Protein Shake..thoughts?!
bikerchick519 replied to xraylinny's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I like Click, they have mocha and vanilla latte. But Herbalife is my first choice. The recipes are endless by adding sf pudding, extracts, or fruit. There are some recipes on my website. -
Herbalife has good Protein bars. Of course I think all thier stuff is great. www.GoHerbalife.com/dovethompson/en-US

How Many Calories Should I Be Eating?
bikerchick519 replied to jabsimmons's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I keep wondering about that too. I was sleeved in Mexico so I don't have a nutritionist. I just moved up from 700 to 800 calories and some days I go over a little. The last 2 weeks I've noticed I can eat more and that scares me. I had to go back to measuring everything. I have a week where I lose 3 to 4 pounds and the next week I'm lucky if I lose a pound. There's no consistancy. -
It gets harder to find time for the gym once college classes start but I will make the time.

MyFitnessPal.com Members
bikerchick519 replied to Wisteria75's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I think this website, eggface's site, and MFP have been the greatest things ever for me during this journey. I log everything I eat in MFP and it helps me stay on track and focused on my protein amount. My log in there is also bikerchick519. The calories burned during exercise and what the equipment at the gym say are totally different so I adjust what the website says to match the gym. I'm not as good at logging exercise as I am the food. -
Urgent - Advice Needed Please
bikerchick519 replied to bratvp63's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I can tell you that even though I had a great surgery and the easiest recovery, 6 days after surgery the complete exhaustion hit me like a ton of bricks. I was tired for a week like that and I know for some it lasted longer. If you will need to do anything regarding the house you will be too tired after surgery most likely. Although I would hate to put it off, it might be better for your recovery if you do. Maybe just a few weeks would help. -
Will Food Ever Taste Good Again?
bikerchick519 replied to PattieW's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
About week 7 my taste buds were back to normal and everything tasted good. I kinda wish it didn't. -
My doctor said he uses a 34 bougie but he sews over the staple line so it's like a 32.

Calling All Food Addicts
bikerchick519 replied to Shae's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've always loved food. I never thought I was addicted to it until after surgery. I want to eat and crave certain foods when I know I am not hungry. Thank heavens the sleeve prevents me from eating too much. I know what I eat has to be the right things since so little goes in. So far I just fight the food demon, but some days are harder than others. Chocolate is evil and I hate the person who discovered it.
