Cracker barrel has a great kids menu. Grilled chicken strips, shrimp, etc. And theirs says "for kids of all ages" :-) -
What’s Your Relationship with Exercise?
MichelleTN replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Love/hate Love it the first 15-20 mins but then the hate grows as the minutes slowly tick by. :-) -
Since surgery I've lost 31. 44 in all with preop diet.
-
Had my 6 week checkup. Never thought I'd hear a Dr. or anyone say I needed to add more calories to my day. :-)
-
Try upping your calories & exercise. It worked for me when I was in a stall. Then I lowered my calories back a few days later.

Smell and Taste? Did yours change?
MichelleTN replied to Georgia's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My taste has changed but my smell hasn't. I really don't like the way most things taste now. -
I thought I'd have a hard time "breaking up" with food but I really don't get hungry very often. I've really not craved anything except maybe pizza but I let myself have a bite or two& it satisfied me. It's a very strange feeling to not be hungry. Good luck & I pray everything will turn out well for you. :-)

First gym day today. 11 mins on treadmill, 2 miles on bike & then the eliptical kicked my butt. I lasted 3 mins. Lol

Finally broke a stall I was in. Got up this morning & down 3 more lbs. Starting the gym next week, hopefully that helps. Hope everyone is doing ok.

Pre-Surgery Excitement Deflated by Friend
MichelleTN replied to marysmom1216's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree, I had a week of everything I knew I couldn't eat after surgery. 130# ! Tell me what you are doing. I feel like I'm losing slow. 25# and my surgery was April 21st. I'm starting the gym next week so I hope that helps. -
Protein Ice Cream
MichelleTN replied to Indieflickers's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I need to try these Thank you for the link. -
I was set on the sleeve but when my surgeon showed me the difference in weight loss that I could expect I choose RYN. So glad I did. I had to give up NSAIDS but I'd gladly do that for a chance at loosing more weight. Good luck .

Denied! Now what do I do?
MichelleTN replied to Beauty+5's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I'd go to my Dr office tomorrow & call my insurance company on my phone & then hand the phone to the insurance lady at the Dr office. That way you know they have talked to each other. Kinda crazy but it might work. :-) -
It depends on what I'm eating. If I make it something moist & take baby bits I can eat more.

How much weight has everyone lost? 22 lbs since surgery(4/21) for me. Feel like it should be more but not starting the gym till 1st of june. Just walking some rt now.
-
I'll try making it more moist. It's driving me crazy. Lol Thank you.
-
Anyone having trouble eating? I tried eating scramble eggs today & felt horrible after. I don't really get hungry but I know I need to eat some protein and calories. I guess it's back to greek yogurt for tonight.
-
@kalesWifey glad your doing good. I'm on soft foods now. I don't really get hungry which is strange for me .lol. I think I'm losing inches more than weight. Clothing is looser but the scale is moving slower than I think it should. I'm feeling good.:-)
