Wendy's small chili, shrimp, shakes and bars. Kind of afraid to try too much new because I'm pretty sure I could eat too much.

Any Protein Bars Worth Trying?
Angela324 replied to thehappycat's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
I just ordered Wonderslim bars. I hear they may be too good, too...but will see. -
Wow!! Awesome job and keep up the great work! Hope I'll look that good in another 3 months.

I love Chike, but was surprised&disappointed by how high the calories are--darn. They're really good.

Small Wendy's Chili 3 Weeks Post
Angela324 replied to Angela324's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Thanks very much everyone for your responses! -
I minced along on a small chili all afternoon today&finished it by 3:00. Is that too much food. I also had about 1/3 C egg eaters for bfast&1/4 C of chicken for supper. Also had a SF pudding cup in late afternoon. I figure all of is soft. Thanks, everyone!

Small Wendy's Chili 3 Weeks Post
Angela324 replied to Angela324's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Thanks to both of you for replying! No one mentioned beans as being bad, but no one said they were ok either. I've sent an email to my Nut to ask her. Thanks! I kind of wish it wasn't so easy for me to eat so much! I think I'm really going to have to watch--which I'm trying to do -
I know I've read somewhere to stay away from salsa for awhile as it can 'anger' a sleeve. Has anyone found this to be true? And if so, when were you able to enjoy salsa again? Thanks!

Thank you! Good to know.

Hi Everyone&Shoot!, Well, I'm scared. Been doing great until this evening. Had a mild fever immediately post op that resolved, but now, it's back. I've read all of the 'Complications' posts, but couldn't easily find anything about 'fever'--am going to go back&check all posts. Any thoughts or help would be much appreciated. Thank you!!

Thank you, LA_dreamer, I hadn't heard that before, so thank you! For the 1st time, I didn't get all of my fluids in yesterday&was even a little low today. It would be nice if that's what the Dr. thinks. Please keep your fingers crossed for me. Thank you!

Oh, you're right. It could just be a simple infection, couldn't it? That thought gives me some courage to make the call in the a.m. Thank you!!

Thanks, LizInTexas, I need to hear the obvious right now because I am scared to death& would do anything to not be away from my little boy, age 6, for another night, but I know I need to address it otherwise could have to be away from him for many more potential hospitalized nights. Thank you for responding--Hugs!

Hunger Pains Or Not?
Angela324 replied to oconnell's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
OK, I just have to share this with everyone. I am 8 days post op. Yesterday was the 1st day I was able to have real food-deli turkey with W.W. cream cheese spread&green chiles(I rinsed the seeds off) and you fry it in Pam. Got the recipe off of Eggface's site. Yum! Anyway, I LOVE my sleeve because I could not finish 2 slices of turkey!! And it happened again today! I was so hungry for my 2oz of salmon mixed with mayo& wanted to just keep eating.....but I couldn't! Yippee! What a dream, huh?! -
I use the unflavored and don't mind it at all.

How Far Do You Have To Travel?

It was 6 hours for me and I handled the drive home fine with stopping to walk every hour. -
Hunger Pains Or Not?
Angela324 replied to oconnell's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks, Zino, good information that helps me feel more hopeful. And good point Doxieville about the no drinking reminder. I don't have to start that for 2 more days and maybe that will help some. -
Hunger Pains Or Not?
Angela324 replied to oconnell's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have wondered that. I would think it certainly wouldn't hurt -
Hunger Pains Or Not?
Angela324 replied to oconnell's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm feeling a little bummed to know that the sleeve really doesn't solve the hunger thing for some of us. Shoot! I guess you don't get anything for free, huh? I wonder if the technique that each of our surgeons used can make the difference? I'm looking forward to reading TamaraS's links. I will have to say I haven't felt 'real' hunger, such as grumbling or pains, just the need to fill my sleeve. Maybe I do need to educate myself. With this seeming hunger, I can see how it would be easy to gain weight back or not lose much in the first place. Kind of scary. -

Thanks! I'm only 5 days post, but feeling fine. I've been wanting to add salsa to my retried beans. I think I will. My surgeon advances diet pretty quickly. I go to things like deli slices in 2 more days. I can't wait!

Meant to say, life sure CAN seem boring without food. -

Angela324 replied to oconnell's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
How hilarious--licking salt off wheat thins! I'm surprised I haven't thought of that. I'm only 5 days post, feeling very good, and thinking I am mighty hungry. Life can sure not seem boring without food, can't it? Ha! Also thanks for the great articles TamaraS. -
I've been having these same thoughts and questions. Thanks for bringing it up!
