I just found a recipe on eggfaces's site for burrito stuffed peppers. They sound amazing, so I am going to try them!!
-
Thanks. I'm thinking now I might just leave it out. I'm making them with ground turkey. Come on over, we could split one

Did you mix it with milk? I recently just discovered that if I mix my protein powder with milk it makes me deathly ill. So I tried one day mixing it with water and I was fine!! Good luck to you!!

What Do You Use In Your Protein Shakes?

I bought my PB2 at the grocery store. It was in the health market section. -
Does Vsg=Lactose Intolerance?
SleeveShelly replied to BigChrisATX's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my sleeve on 9/12 and I have been trying to mix 1% milk with my protein shakes with milk. Just today I realized that is what was killing my stomach. I thought it was the protein. It is not good. I get really sweaty, and get bad cramps and diaherea. It is horrible -
How much weight did everyone lose at one month post op? Just curious.
-
So I was sleeved on 9/12, started at 325. After the first week I lost 17 lbs and since then have averaged about 3 lbs a week. I am one month out from surgery today and have lost 27 lbs. I had no complications at all, if it wasn't for these 7 incision sites on my stomach I can't tell I have even anything done. I am excited I have lost that much but I see where people have lost like 40 lbs.

Why is it we are not supposed to have caffeine?

I know all drs have different diets to follow, but reading on here I see mine has been a lot different. Does anyone else have a similar diet? I had no pre op diet, the first few days while in the hospital after surgery I was on a liquid diet. When I got to come home I was on both liquid and purée. , I then had my 2 week follow up appt on sept 25 and have been on a regular diet of whatever I can tolerate.

I Find It Odd
SleeveShelly replied to SleeveShelly's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yep! I have found out I can't do breads. I can't eat like a lunch meat sandwich or a pancake, it feels like a giant dough ball plugging up my tummy and it make me feel sick all day! I throw up everytime. -
Protein Shakes Make Me Want To Throw Up
SleeveShelly posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was able to get all of my protein in pre op, but once I had surgery just the smell of them makes me want to throw up. I have tried several different kinds and it is just to expensive for trial and error. Wish there was just a pill!!! -

Somedays I Want To Say Screw It And Eat
SleeveShelly posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Somedays I think I would just like to have one day where I could eat everything that sounds good and not worry about how sick it would make me. It has been so frustrating not seeing that damn scale moving!!! -
The last couple of days I have been craving salt! Bacon, pumpkin seeds, nuts, dill pickles. Then today I gained 2 lbs. I knew I would from all the sodium. I can't stand protein drinks anymore since surgery, I know I am not getting near enough. I hope this doesn't last long!!! DEPRESSING!!
-
I started this journey on 9/12 at 325 lbs. I can't wait to get below 300. I got on the scale this morning and it was 300.4. Ugh!!!

Wish I Would Have Taken Measurements!
SleeveShelly posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Just Got Approved To Eat Salad And Raw Veggies
SleeveShelly posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am so excited about getting approved to eat raw veggies and salad, but I forgot to ask if it was ok to eat skins such as apple. Does anyone know? I had my surgery on 9/12 and am on a anything I can tolerate!! So happy!! -
Stall Started At Week Two! Really?
SleeveShelly posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So discouraged! I lost 17 lbs my first week post op and hardly anything since. I was sleeved on 9/12. Disappointing!!!! -
Why do I eat so fast??? It makes me afraid I am eating to much.
-
I am 2 1/2 weeks post op and my dr released me to eat anything. So no more liquids or purred food. Yesterday I went crazy. I didn't have large amounts of stuff but last night I ate a bowl of cookie crisp. I wish sometimes I would get sick so I wouldn't want some of those foods. Ugh

Does the sugar in fresh fruit slow your weight loss like other sugars??
