Alfredo, Spinach & Mushroom Scrambled Eggs
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to KristieAtkinson's topic in Soft (stage 3)
If your sleeve can tolerate tomato products, a good quality mild salsa with balsamic vinegar and a pinch of reduced fat mexican shredded cheese is quite tasty. -
What Are You Feeding Your Family This Week?
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to Robyn Owens-Miille's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I grill turkey burgers, bake steak fries, salad and a fresh fruit. I have the turkey burger without bun, a very small baked potato with greek yogurt and 1/4 to 1/2 a fresh fruit. I also do the tacos, using lean ground turkey, fat free organic refried beans, whole grain taco shells for my boys...i forego the taco shells and just have the meat, a tiny bit of refried beans, with greek yogurt and mango salsa. -
Sharp Pain In My Side And Now There Is A Lump.
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to Sherry77's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm so glad to hear other people have experienced the "lump" thing. I have the same thing. I am three weeks post op and my Dr. said it's nothing to worry about. It's just weird to me to feel that lump. -
August Sleevers?! Where Ya's At?
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to futureskinnypants's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My friend who is almost nine months out said we will all lose the most in the first month. So we all have to learn to be patient I guess! :-) -
Newbie Saying Hello
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to Kiwiferg's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Hello! Welcome. I know it helped me to focus on the fact I wasn't a slave to food anymore. Now I have more time to explore things that interest me and spend more time with people I love or even meet new people. As I lose weight I am feeling healthier, less self-concious and more energetic. All of this is much more life affirming than life depleting junk food. Hang in there....allow yourself to mourn and then think of all the positive changes. -
I would suggest one new thing at a time....just like soft solids.

Size 14-16 For Sale. I Need 10-12.
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to tautry's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Congratulations. That's awesome! -
I was lucky because my doctor only required clear liquids in the hospital and then liquids until week two. After surgery I had no appetite at all so it was very easy. I didn't have to do a liquid pre-op diet at all.

Do You Care About Where Your Food Comes From?
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to LouiseC's topic in Food and Nutrition
I am the same way. I figure I eat so little now it needs to be as high quality and healthy as possible. -
That's awesome! Sounds exactly like what my dad would say.

Hey August Sleevers! Put Me On Your List! Aaahroo!
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to Gr8rLuv4Me's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I haven't experienced this. Sounds painful. Have you talked to your doctor about it? -
Chicken Pot Pie
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to slimmom24angels's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
According to my documentation pot pie should probably not be tried until between weeks 6-8. -
Question About Codeine
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to ebthompson2010's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor prescribed me Tylenol with codeine to take home with me from the hospital. Safe but could upset your stomach if taken without food. And there's the constipation thing. -
Not Being Able To Sleep
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to wallman's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Completely normal. I started sleeping better around day 12. -
I Was Sleeved 2 Days Ago
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to going_down's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Gaining weight after surgery is completely normal....and each person loses it at different rates. I lost my 7 extra pounds in four days. -
Sleeve Done On 9/12
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to ntaschner's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
My doctor told me to take one or two sips every 15 minutes. Right after surgery it will be impossible to get all the fluids you need...just do your best. It gets easier over time. -
How Much Walking Is Everybody Doing Post Op?
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to tamjo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I walk as much as I'm able. Some days I get really tired quickly so I don't push it....but it's getting easier and better each day. -
Body Aches And Meloxicam
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to msdebb04's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My dr. said NOTHING but Tylenol ever! ..... Because everything else can cause ulcers for sleeved patients.... Quickly. -
Protein Drink & 3 Meals A Day?
CNTWT2BMINIME replied to doxieville's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My nutritionist said one protein shake per day and to get the rest of my protein from lean protein choices. I get anywhere from 600- 900 calories per day. I've gotten 1100 calories on two occasions but I had two protein shakes that day. -
