Congrats...... Wonderful feeling isn't it??

I gave up pop the day of surgery... I know .. Shame on me... But the pain meds and just being totally out of it after surgery helped me with that... I never did get a headache

Great thread.. Walked 2 miles this morning. Will walk another 2 tonight.

So I hated the cheese... To salty... Wish I would have looked at the sodium like you moofish... The chocolate splendor is wonderful... Doesn't have the overly sweet taste. I did like the strawberry sorbet just wouldn't by a whole container. Will post more as I try the rest... Oh first attempt at the chicken soup my water was too hot so the consistency wasn't great. I'm gonna have to try it again.. With my thermometer before I can give an accurate report.

Wow sweet I wish I could say the same for me... It was 3 weeks before I finally felt normal. You will be weak for sure... Try not to over do it is all I can say

Msix... Where do you live... I livd in mannford. I've heard katsis is really good

Hey my birthday is dec 20th... What a great birthday present for you... Saw your other post on the sleeve... I too was gonna have the sleeve... But honestly I'm a grazer so wasn't a good option for me. I had my surgery feb 21st and am 3 lbs away from losing 150 lbs... Crazy huh??? Best decision I ever made

Jodimc ... Hey... My mom lives in short ok and she does all her shopping in ft smith... When's your surgery or have you already had it?

I am from Oklahoma and my dr was dr gorospe!

What a great thing!! Congrats

Hope they figure it out and you get to go home some... Best wishes for a quick resolution

Joan... Your story moved me to tears... Great job on completing your run. Hugs!!!

mami... you are shrinking away!! Vicki couldnt agree with you more you just say it so much more eloquantly then I ever could. Nursie... no one is ever the "one" who doesnt lose weight unless they arent following pouch protocol. You will be fine. If you do have a stall, have patience and your scale will catch up with you. Hugs your way!!

Congrats.. You will have something truly to be thankful for!

Us older ones always have a hard time... Hell my daughter was having a bad day and I almost said let's go get a milkshake ... Just like we have always done... I'm glad you are giving her another chance.

Weird how every surgeon is different.. Mine wants me to drink one Protein Drink a day.. 2 if I can.. And do that forever! I still get a good bit of protein from eating

I would call the dr just to be on the safe side.

Be careful of the shots.. Most contain the wrong kind of protein for the pouch crowd

Just tried strawberry sorbet... It's good

You look amazaing

slowtogo... ignorant to tofu.. what is silky tofu? and how do you add to cream soups

Having patience doesnt end when you have surgery either guys.... the stalls with the losses will have you pulling your hair out if it isnt falling out already... Use the time to get physically and mentally ready for the changes coming your way. We can all empathize because we have all been in your shoes...It is rare for anyone to not wait 3 to 6 months. I can hardly wait for each of you to be approved.. It is an exciting time. Good luck to each of you!!!

I dont know... I would have twisted it around and said something like... I have some tips on how to lose a ton of weight if your interested...people are ignorant... You are doing great... keep up the good work

WOOHOO!!!!

I hope that you can quit easily... It is an awful habit
