  1. It is still my go to breakfast. Love the chocolate!
  2. I was at about 8 wks post op for my first business trip and pre op I traveled every week. Make sure you are cleared with your surgeon and discuss clot prevention for such a long flight. Also, make sure you get enough down time. A two day trip for me wiped me out for another two days.
  3. I am 11 weeks out and do the same thing... Premier Protein for breakfast, but have food for the rest of the day. It's fine to like the shakes, but as others have said your stomach needs to adjust back to real food. Good luck!!!
  4. Shelly... the first 2-3 days hurt, but after that it was more minor uncomfortableness. I go to the MAC in Timonium
  5. Hi Liz!!! When is your surgery date?
  6. I will be 8 wks post op on Tuesday
  7. I am posting a bunch of clothes on ebay... all are brand name and either casual or business. My ebay name is alexandra710 or message me here if you have any questions. Thanks!
  8. Sorry I was MIA for a while. I got mine done at Hopkins. Do you live near Towson? I'd love a workout buddy, too!

    New Favorite "take Out" Meal

    I get the fully loaded chicken bowl at Baja Fresh and get about 3-4 meals out of it. Soooo yummy!
  10. That's an awesome loss, though!! Where are you in Baltimore?
  11. That is awesome!!! I could use the encouragement, too. My husband is amazing and supportive, but he doesn't quite get it... blessed with awesome metabolism and a baseball player. He's lucky I love him. I will friend you on mfp and pm you my mobile. I text
  12. Congratulations!!! That is awesome
  13. I am on mfp too... lesslexi I'm doing well. Down a little over 28lbs in 28 days. I am still amazed when I take a few bites of something and I'm full. How are you?
  14. Do you still have these listed? I can't find you.
  15. Just curious if you ended up selling this?
  16. How is your eating? I just started a mixture of puree and soft.
  17. You're definitely not! I lose in batches. Nothing for a few days then 2-3lbs at once... my surgeon said at this stage about 1lb per day is really good.
  18. Yes, mine is all post op. I only had a one day pre op diet.

    Instead of pizza

    My husband and I were just talking about this!! Pizza is my thing, too. I have been fine cooking, baking, etc without any feeling of deprivation; however, I told him no pizza in the house until I can have some, too. It will be a treat for me, but I am sure worth it.
  20. I was sleeved on Nov 20 and down a little over 25lbs. Congrats MrsM!!!!

    Energy levels

    Same here... a lot more energy in the mornings and I do get a little light headed; however, my NUT said it could be lack of sugar. So, I eat 1-2 tablespoons of applesauce and I am fine. I am running 500-700 cals a day. I also make a bunch of homemade, high protein, high fiber soups/ stews. This seems to help, too.

    Downtime After Sleeve.

    My company had mine fall under short term disability because of the hospital overnight. I had my surgery on Nov 20 and return Dec 10.
  23. That is awesome!!! Congratulations!!
  24. I have not been below a size 14 in my adult life. Even when I was playing competitive tennis in High School/ College (before tearing my rotor cuff), I had to work at keeping the weight off. So, my irrational fear of the day? What if I don't actually like how I look if I get below a size 14???
