Mashed potatoes were on my soft phase along with sweet potatoes, everyone's Dr and plan are different! The only food off limit for lifetime on my plan is carbonated beverages.

Ice cream makes me have dumping

@CosmicKid1969. Love this! Thanks for sharing ❤️

I am 5' and have around 65 pounds as well that I would like to lose! I need to start my exercise !!

Hi Melanie! I am from Texas, north of Dallas! I was sleeved 9/25/2014 and have lost 45 pounds! I too have been looking for a weight loss friend ????????

@[member="bubba'sMom My only daughter and only child too was very upset with me having the surgery! I also had my brother and father telling me I could try to lose the weight again. Just give it one more time. So I had already been approved gone through the whole process and instead of canceling I changed the date because I wanted to make everyone happy. Everyone happy but me! I too have always been the caretaker in the family and thought of everyone else but me ! I don't regret that but my daughter is grown now living her life and I thought this wasn't right! I am the one living with the health issues, unhappy with myself and depressed so I sat everyone down in my family and with my husbands support told them I was having the surgery that I loved them all very much but I had to make these choices so I could live a longer healthier life! I had the surgery on September 25 and have lost 45 pounds thus far. I would have never been able to do this on my own. Ultimately it is your decision and you have to do what is best for you and I know that is hard especially when you know the reason she is against it is because she is scared. You will do great and when it is all over with she will be very proud of her Mom and she will realize you are not just doing it for you, you are doing it because you love her and your family ❤️best of luck girlfriend , you got this ????

What does your daily meal plan look like ? Looking for suggestions! Congrats to everyone on their amazing weight loss????

Premier Protein all the way !

I haven't tried coffee again yet just decaf. I am 7 weeks out so I think I will try it! I have missed Starbucks ! What I have had is sweet tea about once a week. really hard to give that up ! I used to drink it daily but since the sleeve I waited 6 weeks and had my first one ! I guess if I see it slows down my weight loss I will stop the sweet and try unsweetened ! I don't like the artificial sweeteners

I have only tried the cookie dough one and I heat them in the microwave for 10 seconds and they are amazing! What other flavor do you all recommend ?

Hang in there girlfriend ! It will happen! I haven't worked out either! I don't like it but unless I want to be flabby I have to ! Bummer! Isn't losing 85%of your stomach enough ????????I know I have bought 3 pairs of boots and none of them for my calf yet ????

NewLife4me7 congrats on your amazing weight loss! I am 5' tall too and started out at 228 and am now at 190! I was sleeved on Sept 25! Just wondering if you would mind sharing some of your daily meal plans! I am just starting regular foods this week and need some guidance from a successful person ❤️

I am officially 5 weeks out from my Surgery and have lost 35 pounds total. This last week I have been frustrated as I have not lost anything! I am wondering if what I am eating is slowing things down ...I usually have a couple of Greek flavored yogurts a day and Soup a few reduced fat wheat thins with laughing cow reduced fat cheese and a Protein Drink. Anyone else having a slow down ?

Hang in there! We are all going to be skinny by summer ????

I had a watermelon sucker ????

Has anyone had ice tea since their surgery? I am almost 6 weeks out and have not had any caffeine yet! Wondering if anyone has tried it yet and if you used regular sugar or artificial sweetener ?

Jennifer Rogers great weight loss! I too have had some of the soups at Panera ! When we only eat 3 bites it doesn't hurt anything! I am 6 weeks out and have lost 40 pounds and move into a full diet next week. A little nervous but am glad we have positive people to talk to on here to help with this process ????

So the lemonade or limeade doesn't bother you ? That is Great! I have been wanting to try the crystal light lemonade but was afraid the acid would bother my stomach! I will have to try it now!

I have reduced fat wheat thins with laughing cow cheese and as long as I chew real well I have no problems eating about 4 crackers at a time for a snack.

I use Celebrate Complete chewable and the Celebrate B12! Love them

How much soup have you tried to eat at one time ? 1/2 cup ? 1 cup ? I can't figure out my full point yet

Thanks! Just wondering if I am normal. I get in about 1/2 to 3/4. Do you still have any nausea? I was sleeved on the 25th and still have a unhappy pouch

I was sleeved on 9/25/14 and am 3 weeks out! I still have trouble getting all my protein in and my stomach is still very sensitive! I am trying different protein drinks and I do like the Quest cookie dough protein bar but I find I still make all kinds of gurgling noises from my stomach when I drink and eat. Anyone else having these problems ?
