Welcome it's a emotional journey but worth it...everything changes with any changes you make...some are for the good ... We've been trapped so long by our former body and mentality that it's hard for us to catch up . Let alone our family and friends...don't be surprised if you lose some friends along the way ... We all are here for you

It's best to get your gallbladder out at the same time and fix any hiatel hernias ... My husband has the surgery in 2010. He had a gastric sleeve and 3 months later had to go in and get his gall bladder removed... I already had my gallbladder removed after my first pregnancy do when I went in march for my bypass , they took care if my hiatel hernia ...what a difference . It's nice not having the acid reflux

Where Are You in Your Weight Loss Journey?
mamafine23 replied to Alex Brecher's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I started at 282 in march 2013 and currently as of January 1st I am 154 lbs. I started in a size 22 and currently in a size 8.... Never would've imagine being in a size 8 in my wildest dreams ...I am 5'9" so my weight should be around 165 -
I took 4 weeks which definitely helped with getting a routine and getting an idea of the foods I could handle and prepare at work ...also helped because I was in so much pain and slept slit the first week.

I get about 1/4 to 1/2 cup ... Always protein first , then vegetables ... I supplement my protein through out the day with unjury unflavored , kind nut bars, pure protein bars ...salads with hard boiled egg and sunflower seeds...

I have to say a mixed green salad with hard boiled egg , cucumbers , red and green peppers , red onions , tomatoes , sunflower seeds , Texas toast croutons... I live on this ... I have tried pork loin, pot roast. Roasted chicken , and no luck with handling any of it...now I am addicted to Wendy's chili which gives me 18 grams of protein
