Phil 4:6-7

Hey Vertical Sleeve Talk world - I have had my 1st segment air on the local news station here in TX. They will be following me for a year - I was honest and put myself out there in hopes I could help some people decide their plan of action on their health! They even got permission to go into the operating room. Anyhow if any of you are interested her is the link and make sure to watch both parts. www.newschannel6now.com click on News tab and go down almost to bottom and look for "Walk with Irene".........I was sleeved on 7.17 - enjoy!

Hey just became a member of my fitness pall - your email is not working can you add me - and this goes for you other ladies -too add me if I don't add you first. IreneR1969

I weigh on Mondays since that was my pre-op date with the surgeon - I have lost 30lbs as of today including pre-op and had my surgery on 7.17 - so I guess since I started my preop on 07-09 I have lost almost a 1 lb a day - I"LL TAKE IT while I can!

I was told by my bariatic center to stay away from chicken breast and go towards skinless boneless chicken thighs - does the breast meat in the crock pot come out just as moist or should I stick to my thighs?

I would go with Unjury hands down, I love their unflavored because it really is unflavored and I have added to soups and sugar free puddings, also I had a flavor I didn't like and no questions asked on their return policy - I sent it back and they gave me my money back...great customer service!!!

Hey just wanted to post if you haven't bought it already get yourself some Unjury Unflavored protein - it is amazing and has been my saving grace! I have put it in my creme soups and my sugarfree fat free jello snacks - I have a scale and the scoop weighs 10 grams empty, so if you divide the 24 grams of protein by 4 = you just need 6 grams of powder in the scoop and it's not alot and mixes very easily into my jello - dulce de luche - yum yum and I get about 5 grams of protein - and i have done a full scoope in my 1/2 cup of soups and it mixes there easily too - but make sure you don't heat it over 130 degrees use a food themometer - which Unjury website sales if you just want to make one purchase....just saying! Good luck!

I have had a little temptation, but having been to therapy for the last 3 months and starting again this week I can say that the one thing that has helped when I am around people eating food is to close your eyes and take a deep breath and remember this too shall pass and soon you will be eating "anything you want" - or I turn my sound machine on that I got from Amazon and listen to the rain and take myself somewhere else for the time being - this might sound corny to some of you but just thought I would post...god bless!

starting my soft stage on Thurs - for you early July sleevers any favs on soft foods?

Thanks Jens08 for posting that - I weighed this morning and had only lost 1lb so glad to hear that this is normal in the 1st month - my surger was Wed 7.17! - can't wait till thurs when I get to start chewing food on the soft diet - chicken salad never sounded so good!!

sounds great! 10days till I can eat these!

wow, this sounds great...also you can make the meat with taco seasoning and make a taco meat with cheese in the wonton too...saw that one on pinterest,

Hi everyone, I was sleeved on the 17th and I am in the heavy liquid phase - jason's deli and quizno's broc cheese soup has helped as a serving is about 9 grams of protein - I liquify it and then add a scoop of the unflavored unjury protein so I get about 30 gr of protein - I know it has fat but right now I am just worried about my protein...also bought all kinds of sugar free puddings - bannna creme,choc,vanilla,pastachio,lemon and making it with skim milk and adding unflavored protein to it and getting about 10 gr of portein that way too....unjury choc and vanilla shakes are tasty too. good luck anyone andy other ideas during the heavy stage would be appreciated. anyone found any sugar free yogurts?

I just bought it staright from the main source unjury.com, very well worth the price and the taste is amazing if you mix it with progresso all natural chicken broth - a cup of that is 3 gr of protein + the 21 you get for a scoop of the mix = 8 oz of warm soup never tasted soooo good!

Hi, I too was sleeved on 7.17, I have been taking naps everyday so you must have been doing maybe too much too soon. I went back to work this past Wed.and have been taking it easy. Starting back on the heavy liquid phase has helped my energy so I hope this will be the case for you too!
