(season potatoes) Top with cheese & green onion.

Weigh in today: 197.7

I am having a protien shake now. Im going to hv to start doing that. Im just "blah" w food right now. Nothing I eat is satisfying.

I was self pay also & dont have a nut. I hv been reading this post & wondering abt how I eat. Some weeks I can eat more than others but lately just a couple hundred calories a day. I dont hv a lot of energy currently. I see how so many are doing 800+ & there is no way I cld eat tht but doing a shake wld help boost my intake. Im thinking I shld prob go back on shakes. Im 3mo out.

My goal was to be under 200 by my 3month mark & today I was! I havent been losing quick like lots but Im losing. From the begining, I hv measured myself & today I hv lost 42.5 inches! Im very excited & thankful I was able to hv this surgery.

I weighed 244 day of surgery. Lol im so nutty i hv lost 45 lbs

I was sleeved on July 16th & have lost 43 lbs.+ inches.

You can use them for that. You can cook just about anything in them. You can toss some steaks, chicken, ect. Lots of recipes for the crockpot & very sleeve friendly. Ther's a few crockpot recipes in the recipe section. There's one off the top of my head Place chicken breast in crockpot & cover with a jar of salsa. Cook for 4-6 hours depends on the crockpot. You can put just about any saeasoning on it. I find lots of receipes on pinterest crockpot recipes.

Have you thought of investing in a crockpot? There's hardly any prep time. Just toss in crock & let cook all night . Lots of recipes. You can do Talipia fish, grilled Jennie o lean turkey burgers, tuna-tht can be made a variety of ways for diff taste, frozen meatballs-just add some sauce.. Frozen veggies are good with your meal.

Thats actually a great idea!

Oh i hv seen that by crystal light. Thank you.

You look AWESOME!

Very very encouraging! You have done great!

Sounds yummy! Thanks for posting.

Well I havent lost as much weight as you. You are doing GREAT! Sleeved on July 16th & hv lost 43 lbs. & 34.5 inches (I hv not measured since last month). I may be slow on losing actual pounds but its coming off everywhere & inches are falling off. Last Sunday I tried on a size 14 dress & it fit! It was tight in places so I didnt wear but it fit lololol. Thats a huge thing to me! I was wearing a 22-24 pant size!

If anyone dont get approved & self pay is an option. My cousin & I both had surgery in Acuna, Mexico with no complications. Hospital is very very clean (constantly had someone sweeping & mopping) & after crossing the border from Del Rio the hospital is like 2 blocks. My Dr. Name is Dr. Luis Alberto Cruz Gandara ( he went by Dr. Crus). 772-0915. Something to think about.

Surgery weight & day: 244 on July 16th Contest weight: 217 lbs. Weigh in today: 210.6 lbs Last week: 206.6 10-13-12: 201 lbs! Excited! Contest goal was 197 but Im shooting for 187. I will get close to it!
