    Vacation Blues...HELP

    bring bars and crysta light packs.. plus 1-2 months out you must be close to solids.. get permission to go to solids a bit early.. CHEW CHEW CHEW and eat 4 ounces of chicken, fish or tender steak, Protein is your number 1 priority.. Chris

    How many calories per day?

    im 7 months out. lost 200lbs in 9 months total.. i was at 1000 but working out like 600 per day.. i just increased to 1300 because i don't want to lose anymore!!! Crazy i can say i don't want to lose anymore. I just did it so waiting for next weigh in in a couple of weeks. Id say to you stay around 800-1000 Chris

    swelling

    where u from

    swelling

    A lot of people go from lap to sleeve. My Dr won't even do lap anymore. So I'm glad you did that .. U might still have some gas from surgery being 10 days ago.. That is very normal.. Walk a lot to get that gas out.. Thats the only way . Chris

    swelling

    can i confirm.. you had your surgery almost 3 years ago and have lost like 20lbs total?? I guess I'm confused by that.. Maybe your stats are wrong or your restriction is wrong.. Just asking how that works... Chris
  17. Christian Zaccone

    over eating

    HMMMM.. Corn is extremely hard to digest anyways for the "normal" person.. I wouldn't do that again .. Im sure u figured that one out by now.

    2 months out and looking for buddy

    BETTER THAN GAINING!! LOL. Your going to have stalls. SImple as that.. They last 2-4 weeks. Add more Water. Change up exercise routine and push it a little bit more. If you read my story. Ive lost almost 200 lbs in 9 months. 7 months post surgery,, I have had 2 stalls. in that 7 months. Chris
  19. Christian Zaccone

The gurgling sounds are common and me 7 months out still have them especially after i eat or if i eat a little to fast. yeah your only 6days post op io would stay on shakes for another week and then go to puree then solids.. Are you set up on a plan? if not I will help you .. I try and help a buch os people in here with any questions they have .. Im in work all night so have plenty of time on my hands. Chris

    I threw up in my sleep :(

    if u have acid reflux or "throw up" while laying down. Just means you ate and went to sleep to fast.. At least i found that was the only time i had the issue. So when you eat wait 2-3 hours before bed... then it should happen. Its Yucky! Thank god only happened 3 times to me before i smartened up.. Chris
