great advise sleve guru !!! thanks will think positive !!!

I think about getting to the gym and cant get my ass there, i go for a few days and then i don't want yo go anymore so i understand how u all fell !! After being at work for 8 hrs. I cant seem go want to do anything at all, i do feel depressed at time but its not always like that :-(

alcohol has affected my weight loss, I'm definitely limiting myself to 1 day at week. after the surgery I was feeling depressed and found myself drinking 3 - 4 times per week, n 9 months Ive only lost 60lbs. which makes me sad to know, i let my emotions take over. I will definitely think twice about drinking during the week n try to workout instead of thinking of drinking.

omg ! my boss used to make fun of me bc i was cold all the time too !!

That was on whole wheat bread :-)

Im 8 months post and when just ordered a blt for lunch and i could only eat half of the sandwich and a few chips :-)

Thanks for explaining, i got lots to learn :-)

What is PPI ?

No protein shakes anymore stopped sbout 4 months ago, my doctor did not feel i should take them anymore but im wondering if i should take anything to help me with my appetite !!

I have chobani yogurt for breakfast with a large coffee everyday than a piece of grill chicken with some salad maybe about a quarter then for dinner i have something similar, i have peanuts or almonds in between my meals :-)

@mistysj - i will keep that in mind, I have my yogurt with my coffee, I guess that needs to stop too. My meals are pretty much solid no drinking in between but i have noticed it's not 30 after or before so that may be the problem. Thanks for the information @ lexi6510 I am not working out and feel no desire to, I wish i had the energy that everyone talks about, i do take my vitamins so not sure again what the problem is. I will see my doctor on 6/27/13, lets see if he thinks I should take something else for energy.

Yes i think im drinking too many liquid calories, which gonna stop, i cant get myself to the gym either, have no motivation and/or desire to workout again not sure what to do !!!!

I've been feeling like that lately, hungry all the time and have only lost 60lbs. since September 2012, not sure what I'm doing but it can get depressing sometimes

U look great !!

I stall all the time, I just let it get to me bc if i do it will discourage me, I've only lost 60lbs since Sept. 2012, it's very slow but im not in a hurry to be the ideal weight. Keep faith that you will eventually loose it all !!!

thank god everything worked out ok at the end. my boss just told me that a chef she knows lost 230 lbs in 1 year bc the surgeons at North Hospital in Long Island stapled his esophagus by mistake, he cannot ate and can only have liquids since having the surgery, I feel so bad for this man, I can't imagine the trauma he has been going through for over a year. Hope everything works out for everyone post surgery.

I'm sorry that you went through so much, glad now your feeling better. I was sleeved in Sept. 2012 and only lost 52 lbs. so far, I question my sleeve sometimes bc I get very hungry at times and I can eat almost an entire slice of pizza if i allow it. Now I'm wondering if there is anything going on with me. I had it done in NY and my insurance paid for it.

one day at a time !!!! I go through stalls but i don't give up, I know eventually i will get to my ideal weight. just stay positive !!

im the opposite :-( I don't rink enough that i think i may have kidney stones !!

Good luck ! don't be nervous everything will be smooth :-)

Got sleeved on 9/2012 by Dr. Nishimura !!

well said everyone, keep your heads up and stay positive !!!

Im down 51lbs. And the other day my sister made a stupid comment, i was telling her that i would clean my closet and donate my 16 size jeans and size 18 and her stupid comment was " why don't u keep them just in case " so my response was " I'm not planning on gaining weight it, so why would i keep them ? " it really annoyed me to hear that from her bc she was at the hospital for me and looked after me after surgery :-(

Ive only lost 51 lbs. in 5 months, so don't feel bad, everyone looses differently and has different metabolism !!!
