  1. My nut told me today that I should be eating no more than 1/2 cup per meal, so you are right on. Sometimes I can do that and sometimes its too much.
  2. I asked this question today. She said as long as it doesn't hurt it is ok and it won't sit in the pouch for it to stretch. But not to take several big gulps in a row. She said to still "try" to sip more than taking regular drinks.
  3. Post op appointment done. Down 18 lbs. Got scrips for B12, vitamin D3, and iron. Also start calcium citrate. Is now ok to progress diet, so basically just about anything I want I can have. I just need to eat slow and chew well. And need to keep things healthy and lowfat of course. Can have no more than half a cup at meals, 3 times a day. Ready to move on and get back to eating normally. I'm alittle afraid, so I will be taking it slow.
  4. 120 degrees???? It's 81 here today and I'm hating that! How do you do it??? I'll take winter ANY damn day!
  5. I do. I drink all day. No trouble getting in 64 oz. I also find that I take regular drinks, instead of sipping. Never causes any discomfort so I keep doing it. On my way to first follow up now. Gonna mention this and see if its a problem. Sometimes I worry that all this water will stretch my pouch.

    munching

    I try to space my meals out by 4-5 hours, like 7am, 12pm, and 5pm. I only eat at those times! I do add two protein shakes a day in there, and of course my water! I am never hungry and I love it!

    What ya eating tonight?

    That is the part I hate! I always want to drink while I eat, and it is hard not too. It's gonna be a life long thing tho, so we better get used to it!
  9. In my case, it is clothes that were too tight before surgery. I've lost 18lbs.
  10. I'm on short term for my RNY. Had a 7 day waiting period,, but am covered no problem.
  11. I was told that two Flintstone complete chewables a day is good. Go for follow up tomorrow and will then be put on all the other vitamins I'll need. B12, calcium and such.
  12. Just tried on my size 22 Levis that I LOVE! they were too loose! I almost died! The butt and legs are so baggy, I can't even wear them. What a great feeling. I have them in size 20, 18, and 16 too. I'll have to dig them all out soon! By the time it gets cold enough for jeans again, I hope they are all too big. I'm loving this today!
  13. Glad you survived the ordeal of lunch! so much to learn, it is overwhelming some times. You got it, just relax girl!
