That is AMAZING!!! Great job!!

Just curious what other's are experiencing for stomach capacity with their newly sleeved stomach; after two weeks I really have no problem knocking back an 11 oz Protein shake, ditto for broth etc. My biggest problem is remembering to drink Water during the day at work, I rarely do though I am trying to drink a couple bottles a day while working. I really have no problem drinking...just remembering and making myself do it. I didn't have any problem drinking protein drinks or broth. But can only eat a half of cup or less of real food. It has been very restrictive which is good. Down about 43 pounds in 5 weeks. ???? I do have trouble drinking water because I stay so full for so long after eating and don't feel like drinking up to two hours after eating sometimes.

Only 3.25 hours this week. Busy week at work. Hopefully I will make up for it this week. Thanks.

You realize that you really do have Chin, nose and knee bones! Who knew?!?!?!

Constipation is the worst!! Over a month out and still having issues! Good luck everyone!!!!

I was told never to use a straw because of the extra air it puts in your belly. I will tell you that it gets easier everyday. I am one month post-op today. I still don't get in my recommended 64 ozs of water but I think it's getting closer everyday. Yes, walking is the best thing for gas. At least it was for me. Walk but don't forget to rest. Your body needs that rest to heal. Keep us posted!!

Everything is going to be great! My one month post op is tomorrow so we are close. But I am down over 40 lbs already!! It is the best decision I've ever made!!!

Wow! So happy for you! Great job on the weight loss! You are doing great!!

Hope everything went well today!!!

Amen! My stomach just will not hold enough food with with protein so to get it I have to drink protein drinks.

How are you doing 4 weeks after your surgery??

Great job!!!!

Good luck everyone!!!

Yeah that should be plenty! I do not usually get that much. Better talk to your doctor.

Got 3.5 hours of exercise this week! 30 over goal ????

Okay Starting Weight is 269.0 Goal weight is 250.0 Thanks again!!!!

I'm in also!! I will post sw & gw tomorrow!! Thank you so much For taking this over!! ????

Hope your energy picks up soon! Are you getting enough protein?

I am down almost 30 since surgery. I think I lost 18 pre op and had lost some during my husbands pre op diet. I feel great and up to walking about 3 miles a day.

Ok. I will email you sometime this weekend. Happy New Year!!!!

Sorry. I have been off of facebook for years. I will send you a private message on here and give you my email. We can talk through there if you are okay with that. ????

AMEN!!!!!!

Hi ElizabethO! I couldn't find any insurance to cover bariatric surgery in Kentucky. It was going to cost me $14.5K to pay out of pocket here. I went down to Tijuana, Mexico to have mine on 12/7. I don't regret my decision at all! Was only $4K!!

Good Morning everyone! I am 269.8. Was hoping for more, but I will take it!! I am sure it doesn't matter much now, but I wasn't highlighted as being in the two hundreds. LOL Thanks for all you've done Steph!!
