Panda Express!! Kids meal with mixed veggies and string bean chicken. Chicken has 170 caslories and 15g protein for a regular serving! I know the sodium isnt good, but a good choice any how!

My Gastric Sleeve Loves... My Gastric Sleeve Hates...
Less of Leslie replied to dreamy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My sleeve loves chicken, all cheeses, and tofu My sleeve HATES sugar. :Cry: Makes me nauseous, hot and clammy. Maybe it's good that Sleevie Nicks doesnt like sugar, it is a slider for me. -

Protein - What Is It Doing Other Than Constipating Me?
Less of Leslie replied to gettingtohappy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Stool softeners saved me! I don't like MOM (milk of magnesia) and I don't like laxatives. Drink alot of water, exercise, and try a stool softner. -

NSV! I gave up my brownie! LOL!! Before I would have claimed ownership of it, today, I took a nibble, gave 1/2 to my daughter and the other 1/2 to my friend! Felt really good that that little chocolate brownie didn't rule me. :0}

Finish Everything On Your Plate!
Less of Leslie replied to Less of Leslie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am so glad that I am not the only one in this club! I have made sure to tell my children that they have to stop eating once they are full. My husband is from the clean plate club and he is trying to break that cycle too. He sometimes tells our 5 year old daughter that she needs to finish her plate, but I just give him "the look" and he reminds himself and her that if she is full, she is excused. It's so hard, we hate wasting food but we don't want our kids to develop poor eating habits either. I will definatley try the food measuring for myself. I bought a kitchen scale and haven't put it to use yet! Thanks for all the advice and support! -

Jp Drain After Sleeve Surgery
Less of Leslie replied to Cathy Adkins Harvey's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Try milking your tube a couple times a day. My fluid varied and I had a drain for 8 days. Sometimes it was very light, sometimes heavy. Sometimes red, sometimes clear yellow. it was normal. As long as the fluid was not milky or cloudy and you have proper suction in your bulb, you should be ok. I would call my surgeon or surg asst and double check for peace of mind. -
Stalls Are No Big Deal So Why Complain?
Less of Leslie replied to royboy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Plain and simple: We complain because we are SCARED TO DEATH THAT THIS WILL BE ANOTHER FAILED ATTEMPT AT WEIGHT LOSS. I am a little peeved that this topic is even here, but whatevs. We have been struggling with weight loss for years and we have failed. This is an extreme last resort at finally getting the weight off. It is a total head game. We KNOW that 85% of our stomach has been removed, We KNOW that we eat like birds and that we don't eat enough not to loose, We KNOW it is calories in vs calories out. We have ALL done the pre-op work. What we don't know is that if this surgery was done in vain and if we have our hopes and expectations up to high. Obviously it is the norm to be upset about the scale not moving. We have all of our hopes in this surgery and we are afraid of failing. THAT'S WHY WE COMPLAIN. -
Post-op Gallbladder Issues
Less of Leslie replied to ChunkyAndFluffy75's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doc told me he found scars on my gallbladder during surgery but didn't remove it. He ordered an ultrasound and found that I do have gallstones. He wants to wait about 4 months before removing it. I am so scared of an attack. I have never had one, didn't even know I had gallstones. -
