I have a question but please do not spend time lecturing me. My question is why is it I can eat 2 ice cream sandwiches and yet only about 3-4 bites of chicken. It has been almost 10 months since surgery. Is it because those "junk food" items go down easier??

My birthday was oct 16th as well!

I forgot to write on here. I had my sleeve 12-12-12. I lost 95 lbs and went from a size 20 to a 5/6. I have never felt better in my life!!I still struggle with remembering my vitamins but I am trying!! Keep up great work all you sleevers!! ( IF THAT IS EVEN A WORD!)

sleeved 12/12/12 I have gone from 235-172. I would like to reach 150 but have been at a stall for about three weeks. I know without a doubt it is because I don't eat enough. I feel so much better though!!!! Also have gone from 18-20 clothes and 2x-3x shirts to 14 jeans and they are a little big and Large shirts....

they are the only high amount of protein I get in.....I cannot stand protein shakes!

I have not one clue!!!!

very true....it has only been 4 months post op for me BUT I hate looking at the enormous flabby of skin on my belly from 3 children and weight gain!!

My doc told me to wait about year and half to have reconstructive surgery. Anyone know why??

I am working out daily but very slow at first. Have anyone of you ever heard of the weight just not coming off....I guess what Im saying is do people ever NOT reach goal or does it always happen??

I had such a tough time drinking. It was like it was taking forever to get drinks down. I did go to drinking tea and stuff soon. As for food I was so scared....I started mash potatoes soft foods...sounds crazy but even like a cheese puff cheeto dissolving in my mouth at first. It was like a baby learning texture again Just go slow. ..don't jump into steak lol

It is so normal! I had those feelings and still sometimes do but it does get easier!!! Keep up good work I promise it gets easier....feelings get better....and for a longtime I was sick with food and drinks but again I am almost 4 months out and I finally feel good!!!
