I'm nearly a year out and still ENJOY a shake. Lol

So... I was out of town the past couple days, so I've been eating out just about every meal. Also (TMI warning) it's the dreaded TOM, so I've been eating everything in sight! I know! I'm such a piggy! ... And whatdaya know?? As of this morning, I stepped on the scale and, I have a new low weight... 128 lbs. I love my sleeve & my sleeve loves me! lol

@@tbrous65 : on the full site, you click on your name top right, and then my tickers. I have no clue how to use the mobile app. Tips: hmm.... Exercise: I walk/jog. I attend BodyFlow & Yoga classes 2-3 times per week. I go to a core class once per week. I do some basics at home, and I recently starting lifting heavier weights. Food: I eat 5-6 times per day. 2-4 oz at a time. I mainly eat meats & veggies for meals. smoothies if I'm on the run. For snacks I like yogurt, nuts, cheese, Quest bars.

I think there's more lifting in MS, unless y'all have a wonderful full staff of CNAs that can do all your lifting (did you chuckle at this??)

How much time can you take?

Here's what I packed myself for work today 12 hour shift 11am- 11 pm - Carnation Instant Breakfast, no sugar added w/ skim milk (13g) - 1/2 oz beef Jerky & 1/8 c. pecans (9g) - veggies & 2 tbsp hummus (2g) - 3oz left over BBQ w/ 1/8 c. Beans (24g) What do y'all like to pack for work???

On most days

I'm a big fan of logging my food as well! Even at a year out, it's very helpful. (Although I don't use mfp)

Guess me! Guess me! Lol

I work 12 hr shifts as well. Here's a few things I like to pack: Beef Jerky cheese Yogurt Leftovers Quest bars Canned tuna w/ Lauging Cow wedge chicken salad Veggies & hummus Boiled egg or deviled egg (made with Laughing Cow wedge instead of mayo) Nuts Here's some example of my packed lunches/ Snacks.

I'm surprised about the Advil. Most surgeons say NO Advil. I never needed pain meds after surgery, so if you're feeling good, then you don't need it.

They usually give (ok, I'm talking US surgeons) IV abx right before (as in minutes before) or during surgery.

The moment I knew I had to change: While performing chest compression for a few minutes during a "code blue" another nurse had to tell me to sit down because it looked like I was going to pass out. It was so embarrassing. I couldn't even do my job. Now I can run around all night and not feel physically tired. I just think of chest compressions as a little extra cardio (for me & the patient)

What I eat: real food meat, seafood, veggies, eggs, fruit, nuts I've stopped eating all bread, rice, potatoes, and Pasta... But that's MY preference. I also like yogurt, cheese, Protein shakes, Quest bars I be sure to measure/weigh everything I eat to be sure it's the right amount. I have pics of food in some of my photo galleries if you want to check them out.

I used pillows.. I already had them. No money wasted.

I was still on liquids.

Good question! Yes, we would be more likely to overlook it if it looks like a pretty beaded bracelet.

Wtf??

I had sx at 10 am & I left the same day at 2 pm. So thankful I didn't have to stay in the hospital.

Are you tracking what you eat? If not,that might help.

Any time is a good time to workout.
