Ladies! Did your cycle change?
albertamom replied to albertamom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Well it came today and let me tell you all it is kicking my sleeved butt!! I feel bloated and gross and for the first time I want to eat all the time and want sweet and crunchy!! It is weird!! But I am holding on reminding myself it might be a kind of head hunger or something!! Sugar free hot chocolate gave me a sweet treat! I have stayed the same weight for the past three days!! Which in my opinion is ok because I didn't gain!!! -
Okay my mouth is watering!!! Making this today or tomorrow!!!

albertamom replied to Ima Loser's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am in!! Start 217 Current 197 Goal for June 21- 175lbs That's 22 pounds!!! Here we go!!! -
I was told 4 weeks and only light drinking... And to remember it won't help weight loss goals
-
I did this too!! But to be out of the 200 by my 40th and I did it this weekend with 15 days until the big 4-0-!!!! I think smaller goals make the process so positive!!!

march sleevers the good and the bad
albertamom replied to thriving1726's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Sleeved on March 1!! Lost 20 pounds. I eat about 600-800 calories. Getting average of 70-80g of Protein. Fluids are getting better daily now that I can take a normal drink!! Sip sip sipping was challenging for me!! I am on normal foods now but still find it easier to stick with soft!!! I am learning to let my sleeve guide me in choices!!! I have eaten out with family had a French onion soup!! Took me the same amount as time as everyone else to eat it!! I only ate the broth and a bit of the cheese!! I cooked for guests last night and ate with them!! Honestly I only probably ate 1/4 Cup but no one noticed and when dinner was over I was thrilled it went fine and no unwanted attention was put on me!!! So happy for this thread!!! -

I'm Afraid of my Scale
albertamom replied to AmandaRaeLeo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Totally understand Amanda!! I barely lost anything for the first 10 days... I got so obsessed with the scale .... And was so sure that once again this wouldn't work either!! But today is 25 days sleeved and I am down 17 pounds. Would have been great to only weigh once a week.. But I can't resist my morning weigh in!!!
