What "musts"should I purchases pre op?
Packerfan61964 replied to Countrygrrl's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Don't buy anything for home post-op and I say this because your taste buds change after surgery. Before surgery I loved the liquid Protein shots. I mixed them with my crystal light, and BOOM I had 42 grams of protein. Now I cant stand any of them.....so I wasted $125. Good luck finding what works for you!! -

After 2-mos hiatus from the gym my endurance is zero and my legs hurt. Advice, please!
Packerfan61964 replied to My Bariatric Life's topic in Fitness & Exercise
Actually, alot of it is from your 2 month absence from the gym. It takes alot longer to get into shape than it does to fall out of shape. Start back slow, don't try to push yourself. Treat it as if you were going back to the gym for the first time in years not months. And most importanly, remember that anything that you do physically is an accomplishment and beats sitting at home watching tv. GOOD LUCK ON YOUR JOURNEY AND DON'T GIVE UP!!!! -
Has anyone tried Paleo ??? Its not just a diet...just a change of what you eat.

I try to eat a Protein and a carb at Breakfast lunch and dinner. Then I have a Protein shake in the afternoon for a snack and at night i have a SF popsickle or two. I get between 80-100 grams of protein and 50-60 carbs a day.

Type 2 Diabetic Sleevers Post-Op
Packerfan61964 replied to TiaMarie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I dont want to be the bearer of bad news...but it depends on how bad of a diabetic you are. I am type 2 and I am insulin dependent. The first 2 weeks after surgery when I was on a liquid diet.....i took NO insulin. When I started adding food back into my diet.....my blood sugars started creeping higher and higher. So it was back to the insulin. Im not using near as much....but I am still using. Good luck in your journey!!! -
One month out - how are you doing?
Packerfan61964 replied to easymack63's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My NUT told me to eat between 1000-1200 calories a day. Is that because Im a man?? Ive lost 42 lbs total, 27 in 5 weeks since surgery. My first week out, I lost 15 and since then 12 lbs in 4 weeks. -
The pre op struggle
Packerfan61964 replied to holliwood1980's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Are you using a liquid or powdered Protein?? If you are using powder.... Increase it to 2 scoops....also add a cup of strawberries or peaches....they have the lowest amount of calories and carbs. Make your Protein shake thick and eat it with a spoon....its more filling that way. Good luck to you!!!!! -
I don't think that neediness is gender based. Some men are needy.....some women are. It just depends on their personality. The first date mentioning "WE" is not really a sign of neediness in my opinion....its a sign of lonliness and desparation. Keep looking and have fun dating......MR RIGHT will come along when you least expect it

After a week out I told my NUT that I was hungry and she told me to start on soft foods. try 1 egg with 1 starch like 1 pkg of cream of wheat, oatmeal, or grits if you like them. It hit the spot. Use your Protein shake as a snack.

Is anyone having a BIG weight fluctuation?
Packerfan61964 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 5 weeks post op. I am having major weight fluctuations from week to week. I went on soft foods as per my NUT and I gained back 7 lbs in a week. She told me to eat between 1000-1200 calories a day and get 80-100 grams of Protein a day.......the majority of that coming from food..... not a Protein shake. This week I lost 6 lbs. I am just confused and not sure as to what is going on. Most days, I get in between 800-1100 calories, get in my protein, drink about 1.5 liters of Water and walk 2-5 miles a day. Is this normal?? PLEASE HELP!!!! Thanks everyone!! -

The Note4 is an awesome device!! I too had the Note 2 and my son had the Note3 so when my upgrade came available, I jumped at the chance for the Note 4. And Melody, I spent a whole day trying to figure that out and never could.......so i just write it down in my journal. Sorry I couldnt be of more help to you!!

If you weren't obese "all" of your life, what is it that caused you to become obese ?
Packerfan61964 replied to My Bariatric Life's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I was muscular and athletic until my mid 20s. Got married and didnt have time to work out or play ball......then I started driving a truck. -
