I know exactly how you feel about feeling depressed because you have noone that has been through it & noone understanding. That is exactly how I feel. I have my parents & my ex husband as support & lots of other family & friends but noone who has had this struggle or this surgery that I can sit down & talk to & who can say "I understand, I have been there myself" I do have a family memeber who has been dieting & busting his butt for 18 mths now & has lost 170 lbs on his own & he has been great to talk to but he lives so far away & still he has not had the surgery to know what types of things I am experiencing. He can stop what he is doing & do what he feels like when he feels like & then go back to dieting when he wants. This is a permanent life changing choice we have made, there is no changing our minds & going back to the way we used to be. But that is why this forum is here for us, to help us. I just wish there was a place to go to meet with people like us near where I live. We have a once a month support group @ our local hospital but sometimes you need more then that. Plus it is only an hour long & almost never have time to talk about what may be going on with you & get any feedback from others in the group.

Thank you very much everyone. I am going to look online for them today

Where does everyone get the premier protien shakes from? I have not been able to find them at all

Praying for yoyr husband please keep us all updated on how he is doing. Stay strong & keep faith!

I have been stuck @ 300 lbs for the past few days really have to try to stop weighing myself everyday especially now that the weight is not moving as quickly. Trying to stay positive as I know stalls are to be expected. Just did not think it would be at 2 weeks out. I can not conplain to much though as I did lose 21 lbs since my surgery on july 18th, well actually since the day I came home which is when I started weighing myself. I wish everyone the best!!!!

Trust me they knew exactly how I felt for several days. .

Check out pinterest com they have a lot of recipes for people who had wls. I can not wait to ve able to eat real food so I can try a bunch of the recipes however I just started the puree/soft food stage. Best of luck on your continued journey

You look amazing & you definitely look sooo much younger!!!! You have done an awesome job!!!! Wishing you the best on your continued journey!!!! You are an inspiration to me!!!!

I believe we are supposed to try to stay with things that have protien in them & stay away from the carbs... as far as sodium goes I dont know.

I was sleeved on july 18th & as of today I am down 21 lbs since the say I came home from the hospital!!! I am so happy & excited!!!! Today was the first day I was able to hace a scrambled egg & it was so good, was only able to get in like 5 small bites before feeling like that was maybe more then enough. I have also began walking for 30 to 40 minutes a day around my neighborhood. Today I walked up 4 hills without losing my breath I am so proud of myself!!!!! I wish everyone great success with your sleeve & keep up the great work everyone!!!!

Yes very much so. I used to hate going to the doctors & being asked to step on the scale. I always would say I was such & such a weight the other day at my other doctors so I dont need to get on it & they would say ok. I am happier to be addicted to the scale & not food anymore either that is a huge plus.

Yea I know that was why I was curious as to where you had yours. Wish you the best with gwtting them out & also on your journey!!!!

Best of luck to you all!!!! I was sleeved on july 18th enjoy your journey to a new you!!!! & relax you will do great!!!! Hope to hear your stories once you get home from the hospital

Is the premier protien shake an already made one or is it a powder? I am really thinking about trying them. I have seen so many people saying that is what they use. Where can you buy them at?

You look fantastic!!!!! I can not wait until I start dropping enough to really see it. I was sleeced on july 18th. It has been a very emotional week & a 1/2 for me but I am o ushing through. Best of luck on the rest of your journey!!!! You are doing an awesome job!!!!
