I'm in! Sent from my SM-G925R7 using the BariatricPal App

Thank you! I know the process is frustrating, but it will all be worth it in the end.

Hello, I am a AA Sleever. My surgery date was 6-2-2015. When I started this journey, I weighed 289 and now I am at 215. My goal is to get down to 150 pounds.This surgery has been the best decision of my life. Now that I have had it, I don't see how I could have got to this point any other way. Best of luck to all of you!

@VSGmary, I am sad to hear about your loss. You and your family are in my prayers.

What are some good protein bars that you all are eating? I am looking for some tasty, low carb, low sugar, and high protein bars.

Thanks WL WARRIOR, I am going to check that out. Thanks BarrySue, i am going to try it.

Hey everyone I requested you all at fitbit.

Hello, I am a little over two weeks post op, and I was wondering how much exercise are you all getting in?

Thanks everyone! @@LynRey70, I have just been trying to get a little bit in daily, nothing too strenuous on my body. I am still at the point where I have to take a nap at least once. I was just trying to see at this point how much is adequate. Thanks LynRey70

My dietitian encourages me to eat every 3 to 4 hours equaling out to about 6 times (3 meals and 3 snacks). she said it continuously keeps your metabolism burning. protein, veg, and carb for meals ;except dinner (only protein and veg., )and for snack, protein and healthy carb, but protein must be a low fat milk protein for snack.I hope that might help.

@@JamieLogical, thanks!

I think you look great and healthy. I know it is hard, but please try to ignore ignorance.

I am experiencing the same thing. I am going through a depression. I actually get angry and sad about it. It seems like my sense of smell has increased. But I am trying to change the way that I think about food and exercise.

Hello, I had my Gastric Sleeve Surgery on June 2,2015. My weight was 289 pounds when I started this journey. My weight the day of surgery was 269 pounds. My weight today is 259 pounds. I am super excited, but my head hunger is already back, and has me extremely nervous. I am drinking 60 mLs of water every 15 minutes. I meeting my 64 ounces of water on most days without a problem, but I have been reading that everyone else is having a difficult time getting it in, so I am wondering am I over filling my pouch??? I am excited that I found this support page because I am in need of support. It is amazing how much food has controlled my life, but it is time for a change. Now with this fresh new jumpstart, I must control this hunger. I cannot let it control me.

Thanks ladies for your responses. It is reassuring knowing that I am not overdoing it. Congratulations on your surgery!
