@@atontor it's not friends. it's my job. kinda comes with the territory. once the weight starts coming off again i'm sure it'll pass.

I think I'm just the opposite. I crave all kinds of things but I end up not being able to eat any of it. In fact tonight I went back to mushy. I took four corn tortillas and put them on the bottom of a baking pan and then I did a can of refried beans a can of water and some taco seasoning so that it was very very watery. I put it in the pan and I put four pieces of cheese on top and just baked it to make it warm and the cheese bubbly and ate it. It was very soupy but tasty I just don't feel like solid food is working right now

the face you make when you're trying really hard not to thro up at work.....

mentally I want steak. Physically I can't imagine any solid meat. I tried vodka with oj yesterday. Three sips and ick. Threw it out. Tried a kit kat today two tiny bites. Didn't want it. Threw it away. So there u go. French fries might get me. Idk

Congratulations. Sounds like you're having a very good recovery. Everything you described is very normal similar to what we all went through. Great job. Let us know how you are getting on day by day. @retriever I hear you I had the shittiest day ever there was rain snow and hail there's a giant convention by my work which is taking me an hour to get home and my car got a flat tire let's just start tomorrow fresh

hows everyone doing today. i'm doing fine stomach wise (i can drink like regular) but eating is still bascially the same. little less sensitive than before. vegas thought it would be funny and thro some snow and hail our way.....so i'm still at work waiting for the SEMA traffic and hail to die down so i can go home p.s. i want a grilled cheese sandwich

@@MimiSleeved we have a thread called "surgery day" that takes my surgery from day one 10/7 and has LOTS of great followers with great advice. if you want to come over.

i don't care!!! i don't want to be stuck. weight is supposed to be coming off every day. and that's that. end rant.

@ i dont measure. but i do feel looseness in my clothes. but im still annoyed after a week of hard work to only see one pound. i think i just got spoiled after the first 3 weeks post op to be losing so much so fast and then suddenly .....nothin. but i'm staying on track and hoping to rebound next week. just needed to pout.

turkey bacon is awesome! i like mine really crunch so i put it between two paper towels for 2 minutes and about 10 seconds (depending on your microwave power) and it's yum

i'm at week four. yes im doing everything right and i know stalls are normal but it's still pissing me off. and people saying don't worry aren't fat enough to understand lol

Hmmm I think with insurance you might have to do it. I'm not sure what dictates it. I know Dr. soong felt my stomach and ribs and said it would be easy to do the surgery I think that's because I carry most of my fat in my ass and hips and thighs and my stomach is relatively small. But to be honest I have no idea what it has to do with it could have to do with the insurance thing

I didn't but my friend Travis did. (Also dr Atkinson) are you insurance or self pay? What's your height weight bmi?

I know three of us from vegas. We're kinda like a group lol.

Mocha went down fine. Then Apple sauce made me sick. ????????

@Rose1up! YES!! He is the best! I played tennis with Dawn for years so I met Darren a long time ago - but I never thought I'd have the money to get this done. He is great and so is Dr. Atkinson. The follow up staff at Desert Springs was great too! Dr. Atkinson is hot too lol. He came in at like 6am one morning at the hospital and i was like WTF who is this hottie?? LOL. Best of luck to you. Keep in touch! Since we are both in Vegas we can meet up and not eat somewhere

here it is. short, nonfat, no whip mocha. i'll let you know how it is

we're here for you every step of the way. if you start at the beginning of this thread it was from my surgery day to now (almost 4 weeks later) and this group is really supportive so keep us posted. xoxo!

. Omg your not lying I'm Jamaican and Puerto Rican my family had arroz con pollo last night I was mad as hell since I'm only hitting 4 weeks out today. haha i woulda had a bite or two just to say i did

i had Pasta and bread and potatoes at like three weeks and you know what? i don't even really want it anymore. you can't get enough Protein if you fill up on pasta and bread and the like! the only thing i do miss and sometimes try to eat is rice. i'm puerto rican so that's kinda a given but i don't eat it very much at all. follow the instructions no matter how annoying. for now just worry about your next few weeks! not 6 months from now. good luck

good luck! so exciting! p.s. turkey bacon is my savior lol yum!

well if i order a "short" (8 oz) non-fat mocha it has 120 calories. im on such low calories a day right now that it doesn't concern me. now what it does have is 21g of carbs. that's my main concern. i can add Protein powder to it to add to its 7g of protein tho. but idk. im thinking literally like once a week. not every day like i used to. tho i just had coffee in my office (keurig) with some non dairy creamer. LOL you must be looking up a grande with full fat milk and whip cream. im talking a short with non fat milk and no whip cream.

i feel like i might be ready to try a mocha lol. just a little one! #starbucks what do you guys think?

I scrambled them actually put a piece of cheese well Quarter piece of cheese salsa and sour cream turkey bacon was delicious just like that pepperoni chips but not as salty. Wait a minute are you telling me you don't drink Isopure out of the bottle you're supposed to add it to something?because that Alpine punch made me so sick I thought I was going to die seriously heart palpitations headache cramps it was crazy

not the powder. i tried the juice drink
