Congrats on your weight loss. Have you thought about going to a second hand store to buy a few clothes to have while you are losing. I think I am going to head to Goodwill on Saturday to see what I can find. -

I'm 9.5 weeks out and my surgeon told me 800-1000 day. She also said after 800 calories if I'm still hungry drink a Protein shake. -

I started walking first. when 2 weeks after surgery I started riding my bike for 30 mins everyday and weights on my arms every other day. I still walk everyday too. Hope this helps. -
I sleep in a recliner for the first 5 days after I came home from the hospital. Once I started sleeping in the bed again, I sleep on my side with a body pillow.

Pre-made shakes...I like premier Protein shakes, I also eat sugar free pudding and Jello and Swanson's broth. I'm having the sleeve done and my Dr. want 2 weeks of a clear liquid diet. So no real food.
