Well, i forgot my lunch at home. What are some sleeve friendly fast food or restaurant options? I've had pintos and cheese from taco bell. I've done a grilled chicken sandwich witness no bread. Just a baked sweet potato. Any other ideas???

Good ideas! Wendy's also has all their salads in a half size.

Getting nervous.. and this liquid diet is pretty difficult... :-/ But i am so excited for this change.

I saw a recipe in a prevention book that included this frozen yogurt, cocoa powder, Protein powder, and a few other things I can't remember off hand. It looked sooooo good. Im going to try to find this next week.

Honestly as simple as it sounds, walking. Im about a week out too. Had it done on Monday. Walking helps whenever I feel that pressure from air.

AND a clear bill of health from the doctor. YES!! My journey continues. :-)

Thanks! :-)

Forgot to say that includes the 8 pounds lost on the pre diet.

I agree!! Smaller portions and more movement is the answer I will give! :-)

I work in healthcare as well. And for the same reasons will NOT tell them. Its my health and my business. We must have the same coworkers! Because since one of my coworkers told one person she was diabetic, they are all over her food choices and have comments every time she reaches for foods. They have also waited until another person walked away before sharing "you know she had that bypass right??" I don't want to be apart of the gossip.

I'm sure that has to be a way to stop them. Blocking certain people would also be a great benefit. :-)

Feeling nervous and SO excited for this change. :-)

MyThic... Im fine. Just got out of the hospital today. They kept me an extra day because i couldn't keep liquids down. Stomach is still tender and I felt ever single bump on the drive home. But Im in the losers bench. :-)

I can't wait to feel awesome! :-) thanks for the post. And i just noticed my autocorrect mistake in my first reply. "Iraq"???? Really??? LOL

They would probably never post about a mistake or admit. Or maybe they really are just that perfect. The back and forth that I've read on this post has turned me off. There is a way to say things. When im talking to a friend in person the tone would be completely different than a stranger online. People can read into text several different ways. And any help you tried to provide is lost because you come off as a jerk. If you have a few people telling you that your tone is harsh, or moderators posting rules to remind you to be respectful, maybe you should check yourself.

VERY WELL SAID!! It shocks me when people have the nerve to be so rude and judgmental. We aren't perfect. This is a tool, not a fix or cure all. Take it one day at a time and get back on the wagon.

I had surgery on Dec 17. Im still having problems keeping anything down. My doctor said we would give it sometime and try again today.

It went very well. I stayed two nights because i wasn't able to keep any liquids down. Fingers crossed that I'll be able to keep it down today and go home! I went through a few moments where i really wondered why i did this. But i read through some of the other posts in this website and Iraq helped to remind me of the BIGGER picture.

How are all of u 12/17 guys feeling? Im a little sore. And having problems keeping my liquids down.

Couple of days out....how do u guys feel? Im still at hospital because i couldn't keep down liquids. :-( but i feel ok overall.

You look awesome! How long age did u have ur surgery?

I would finally stop hiding behind other people in photos. And sit comfortably in an airplane seat without ugly looks from fellow passengers. Ride a horse. Do a zip line!! I've always wanted to try that.

I was in the office a day after the party and missed all the fun. Lol.. Im getting sleeved by Dr Kim this morning. Congratulations on ur loss!!!

Good luck! My time is 9 am.

OUR DAY IS HERE!!! Best of luck to everyone!! :-)
