I just wanted to know from you vets how much food can you eat or are suppose to be eating after a year??? Any info from you guys or your meal plan for the day will be helpful.. Thanx much

Hello to all my Long Island New yorkers...Its been over a year since i posted,, I just was wondering how all of you have been doing since then ,, old and new timers ... I am doing fine but have noticed my body is at a standstill for some time now. I am happy with my loss but of course would like to lose more but i have to really focus on doing that.. I am able to eat everything without any trouble,,, spicy i can do without...I havent had any carbonation ( maybe a few sips) but have learned to do without soda or beer ...lol.....I am going to focus on some more weight loss soon so that will be a challenge but I really want to do it...Please let me know how you all have done and any tips would be greatly appreciated....

No worries ... I had to do the pre-op diet for two weeks(ughhh) ... but both my siblings and my niece didn't have to do a thing.....your dr. knows what he is doing , everyone has there own routine...

Hi QueenBeeBee I was a hot mess when I went into surgery . I told my dr. to make sure everything was out before i woke up ...And he did!!!!!!!! Just talk to your team and I am sure they will do a great job !!! Good luck and no worries

love it ...I have a charm as well ..just dont have picture of it... it say ....FIND JOY IN THE JOURNEY... I bought it after my surgery when i saw it i had to have it!!!!!

Thanx so much for all of your responses.. I sometimes think I eat too much ,,,i have to measure more and start back to basics ,I am at a stall and its killing me....the paddys day challenge helped but between yesterday and today I am up 4 pounds, granted its that time of the month but it really makes my head get twisted... Thanx again to all

Hi Bella I think your doing just fine ... I went straight to soft foods pretty much right out the hospital..( as per my dr.) 1/2 a cup sounds fine... I also had no problems with anything .

Hey Dream ..I am 11 months out and totally understand where u are coming from ... I am going to do the ST.paddys day challenge starting tomorow... why dont you join me and everyone else. There is a thread on this site for it..it will be my first challenge and i am hoping it will get my ass moving and motivated...LOL...

I know the feeling been grazing too much lately gonna start on st paddys day challenge monday...gotta get back to basics !!!! Lerts get in control and conquer this grazing demon......

I am a bartender,so spirits are around constantly,, I was a big vodka and seltzer drinker tiny splash of cran and fresh lime... I dont do carbonation anymore so that was a big bummer....I now drink wine with tons of ice(classy I know ) haha....I can do shots on occasion... I pretty much get the same buzz post surgery as I did pre.... except it may hit me a bit quicker when i havent eaten....

It will all be worth it Luckyknickers.... I started my journey oct 2012..it took 6 months to get all done that was needed... my surgery was late march 2013... I am 11 month out and down 69-70 pounds ... I am a slow loser but a happy loser... No complications out of the usual ....Life is good just I gotta get back to eating properly I have been grazing lately and am kinda upset with myself ... but I gonna get bac on the wagon. we have a st paddys day challenge starting on feb 17....so that should do it!!!! Good luck in your journey !!!!!!!!!!!!
