That's hilarious... I did the same thing with a pair of burmuda shorts today, size 16, they zipped and all!... Maybe a few more weeks til I can actually wear them out, but atleast I know, this summer for sure! LOL Nice to know I'm not the only one! -sweet

I'm not exactly sure how many calories I intake a day. My Dr. Told me to concentrate on carbs and the amount each food contains. And to stay away from them! LOL I do take my Protein shakes and drink Water all day long. -sweet

Good news anjela! I think it will go away! Lol The feeling of passing food is so much better now. I guess all we needed was time to heal. For me it was more than 8 weeks! I still occationally feel that way with foods that are too thick. So just stick to foods that are easily swallowed, and gradually move up. Good luck! Hope you feel better -sweet

Ughh! Tell me about it! I been at a plateau this whole week. I hope I start loosing soon. It's kinda fustrating after being on a roll! Lmao -sweet

Wow! 62lbs in 3 months, that's awesome! I have to post pix too. I'm down 51 lbs and im 2months post op..

Hi Melissa Looks like its up to u to make this change. It will be hard at first because u do not have the support of Ur hubby, but in the long run it will help you and your kids live a longer healthier life! I'm a single mom of two young kids and i cook meals for them daily... Tasty ones! Lol and i get tempted too. I give in some times but i always remember that when it gets hard the outcome will pay off in the long run. I'm 8 weeks post op and i think this has been my hardest week so far, because I get hungery now, but -54 lbs keeps me motivated! Lol so try and relax keep Ur mind away from food, and you will do great with you surgery. Best wishes! -sweet

Thanks diddle! I'm not alone..lol! I tried a boiled egg today and it went fine! Yay! It wasn't uncomfortable at all... And i felt full! So looks like eggs are my bestfriends now too! Lol -sweet

Hmm... I feel that way but its everytime I eat. I'm 8 wks post op and my surgeon just put me on pureed foods. I hate the feeling of having food stuck in your throat. I always want to drink Water to make it go down but that will only further fill my pouch n make me feel sick. -sweet

Yes. It's kinda up to me to find out how much my body can tolerate now. I just started eating so I dnt quite know what I am capable of eating yet. I still wanna eat like I have my whole life. Does anyone have suggestions on what types of food go down easier? -sweet

Pre-op diet? I'm glad that I didn't have to do that. #dodgedabigone

Hey everyone I'm new here. Im a little over a month and a half post op and have lost 45 lbs. I'm still on my liquid diet, because I dnt get very hungry very often, and when I do, and I attempt to eat something, I feel like it gets stuck. Did anyone else have this issue? How long typically til food can go down smoothly?

Thanks Steph! Goodluck on your surgery! It's just around the corner... Keep me updated on how that goes for u -sweet

Oh that's great! Congrats on this major step in Ur life.. best wishes! Hope all goes well for you.

Hey tor, Well yeah I hope I can eat soon too! I'm gonna keep trying. How long has it been since Ur surgery?

Thanks for the great welcome! I'm so happy I found this forum. And wow... 24hrs. Til u begin a whole new life! You'll do great. Best wishes -sweet
