Have any early sleevers tried lettuce yet? Need to crunch on something sleeved 3.23.15 a little over 3 weeks

Picked up a few bad habits im 5months out and im able to tolerate a few no nos snack size sneakers and Pringles it's weird I'm not able to tolerate lettuce and some healthy choices like chicken breast and ground turkey but I get hungry so fast any suggestions people plz , and thank you

Sorry guys im 7 weeks out and i drunk some non carbonated Moscato and im fine im sooo freaking tipsy but ok and i only had 2oz lol

well said

yes im trying to head back in the right direction as well the pounds aren't failing off quite as fast anymore its time to really focus

I've went from being a woman size 24 to 12 in just 6 months so I learn to shop at the thrift store because my body is steady changing so i dont have to constantly spend money on retail priced clothing also when I'm out on a run and I get hungry sad to admit I go to the grocery store and get free samples at the deli and it feels me up also it lets me know what I can tolerate and what I can't at this time in my journey , hope this helps, HAPPY TRAILS TO YOU

thank u for comment best one THUS far i feel a little better now because of this thank u for ur suggestions as well

Do you think it's possible that your bad eating habits might have anything to do with this post you made less than two weeks ago: "ppl are such prudes lol drink up ull be fine im about 6months out and i drink more now than i did before surgery and im fine lol well everything is fine so far since i STILL cant eat as much " http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/339715-call-the-bariatrics-police/?p=3932473 Maybe if you concentrated more on Protein than drinking alcohol, you wouldn't have to resort to Pringles and Snickers? Or am I being a prude? Thanx for the guidance ????

hey don't feel bad it is very hard to go cold turkey after years of enjoying something that was so comforting to us and that's why I put call the Bariatric police because some people are so fuckin judgemental like has anybody honestly been 100% perfect in their journey please tell me who have no shame in my game to hell with the rest of them ✌I could not agree more. This journey is one all of us chose to do as adults. And I am really happy someone had the courage to be honest about some of the things they have had the desire to do and did. And to say "you will not get support when you need it" is crazy to me. We're human beings and should never look down on one another. I will be having my surgery Tuesday and posts like these let me see another side to it and make me understand how real this is and how we need to cope. Not everything is easy. If taking a bite and being happy and being able to maintain helped then that is a small victory. I read from others that after 2 yrs post op they still take a bite chew it up and then spit it out. At the end of the day we should be free of judgement on this site and if you don't agree then feel free to show that in a non attacking manner. Were all adults and thank you @@Cars for this post.i couldn't have said it better myself

I'm thinking of having a tiny sip and couple sips....im 2 weeks out.ppl are such prudes lol drink up ull be fine im about 6months out and i drink more now than i did before surgery and im fine lol well everything is fine so far since i STILL cant eat as much

Before surgery 320 pounds date of surgery 270 as of today August 22nd 198 some days I feel the same but then I look back at pictures and it was all worth it I have not been working out but that's only due to work and its crazy cuz my incisions still hurt when I do attempt to work out afterwards but overall I wouldn't change a thing and my surgeon said I'm going to get smaller which is hard to believe but bring it on I went from being a size 24 to a size14 ( surgery date March 23rd 2015)

thank u very much ! ????

No I actually wasn't I didn't feel nothing for a while cuz of the medication those first two days I was in the hospital so I was getting pumped with pain medication like every hour congratulations to you as well it is very exciting
