Gettingsexyback

Thanks! I so appreciate y'all sharing your menus with me! I had 2 thin slices of ham lunch meat with cheese rolled inside for breakfast and 2 cubes of chicken for lunch and the meat off a chicken leg for supper with a bite of mashed potatoes. Snack was Greek yogurt w/fruit ... I cannot get much in at all without hurting bad and to nearly threw up after the chicken. I am going to try to do better tomorrow. I never get more than 50 oz of water in a day as hard as I can and never succeed! Lol

Thanks Curvy! I just weighed and down 2 more lbs so excited I could just flip!!! 220! I am almost in the teens! Geaux Sexy Sleeve!

Oh my word!!! Just weighed and down 2 more lbs!!! Thank you Jesus, friends on Bariatric Pal and my sexy sleeve!!! Lol. I guess this stall is over 4 lbs this week!

Natalie, I use unflavored unjury powder in my oatmeal, soups, yogurt and make shakes with it. You can even add it to your veggies.

Great job! You look fantastic...keep up the great work, u are inspiring us new sleevers!

This chart makes me feel so much better. Thanks for sharing it. You have really done great.

Thank you so much! I have been stalled for like 3 weeks! Lost 2 lbs in all that time!

Mercy y'all are doing so much better than me! I need daily meal plans from y'all. I had my surgery in another city and no NUT so I am winging it. Surgery date Dec. 18 SW- 248 CW- 222 26 lbs down

I am seriously praying I don't lose mine! I am taking biotin and trying to make sure I get all my protein in. I just started using biotin shampoo and conditioner by Jason.

At my 4 week check up last week Doc told me to stop drinking protein drinks and start eating protein bars. I hate shakes so this was good news to me. I really have been eating chicken, tuna, tilapia and yogurt to get my protein as I hate bars/shakes...hopefully this works and I don't lose my hair...already lost enough from the back and foot surgery I had last year.

I went out for the first time too and ordered sautéed chicken and veggies at our local Chinese restaurant. I had like 3 bites of the chicken and could not eat anymore the people were looking at me like something was wrong with their food...I guess it helped their feelings when I asked for a to go box:-(

I was in a 2 week stall and broke it today! Lost a pound! I know that's not a lot but when you have played with the same pound for 2 weeks a whole pound feels like 10! Lol my surgery was December 18 and I am down 24 lbs. not where I thought I would be but it is what it is.

Finally broke 2 week stall! Down one pound today...a whole pound! Lol 224! Thank you sweet Jesus!

Am 4 weeks post op and have weighed 225 for the last 2 weeks! So depressing:-( my thoughts this morning were did I do this to my body just to lose 23 lbs in a month? Really? My clothes are getting loose on the tops not the bottoms.... Anybody have any suggestions to get me out of this funk I will listen... I want to get out of the 20's!!!

Praying she is not that stupid cause I will retaliate. :-) I have worked to hard to keep this on the down low for reasons that I don't want snide remarks or ugliness in my life...my life is full of positivity...That's why I have all of you to share my secrets with;-)

I had my surgery on the 18th and went back on January 6...worked that day and thought I was going to pass out in my desk. I found out next morning at doc that I had a raging bladder/yeast infection so took off the rest of the week...still feeling yuck, three antibiotics later and have no energy to speak of.

This is exactly why I choose to tell no one outside my husband and children. I was even upset when the paid surgeon sent records to my primary care physician in my one horse town because a so called big mouth friend works in the records department. Waiting on the news to hit the street any moment now. Lol I just feel like the more that know the more u are judged...oh she is not loosing or she looks awful....they only say that when you have had weight loss surgery and they know about it! If my boss knew I had it over the holidays she would fire me cause she is really jealous of anything I lose:-(. I feel like it is such a personal journey...I don't even like that I had to tell my husband and kids because they are always saying what have you done to yourself? Really??? Lol I have lost 23 lbs since Dec. 18th that's what I have done FOR myself!

Me! Baton Rouge! Dr. Borland surgeon.

December 18th surgery, had two weeks of sipping and fatigue... Have felt way better now that I am eating soft foods! I also pulled some internal stitches by picking up dog toys this past week but thank the good Lord I can now move freely without severe pain. I have suffered for two weeks with bladder/ yeast infection.... They believe partial dehydration and surgery caused it... Not sure but antibiotics don't seem to phase it:-(. Glad to be in this group! Geaux December 2013 sleevers!

I'm from Louisiana, had a lot of weakness first 2 weeks... Think I was kinda dehydrated:-( felt like Christmas was a big blur and New Years for the most part. Go back to work tomorrow and not looking forward to trying to eat around others ... Or eat several times small meals??? Oh well we shall see how it goes! 19 lbs down and looking forward to getting me back:-)

I am 3 weeks out and eating soft foods like cottage cheese, yogurt, ricotta cheese, meatballs, retried beans w/ sour cream. I ate a few grilled shrimp today and I am so over protein shakes...they make me gag! I am definitely not drinking enough water....trying hard just never liked it.
