Anyone from Southern Illinois area?

OMG I had my sleeve Jan 5th too. How are you doing?Hi there surgery twin! I'm doing great. I'm on the soft foods phase now..have been for a little over a week. Baked and grilled boneless skinless chicken breast is getting kinda old but sure beats puree any day! How are you doing?Im doing good. Not eating much but craving a lot of things. The premier Protein helps me just to get something in. Are you on full exercise mode? I know this surgery is my life change but I still have not energy. I need to start!!! I have lost 19.5lbs I know we are all different but would like to hear from you!!! Please!!!!I'm so glad you're doing well! I know it is very hard. I have been craving cold stuff so have been eating a ton of sugar free popsicles. I eat them all day long but stop half an hour before I eat of course. I honestly do not have any energy either. I stay really sleepy and I think that is pretty normal. I was walking the first couple of weeks afterward but now I haven't been and I have got to start back walking and doing other exercises as well. At my one month follow up I had lost 21 pounds. It's gonna be alright. We just gotta keep moving forward. Thank you for responding!!! Well I guess we are for real twins???? we have lost about the same amount of lbs. I'm still on my 19.5 lbs lost and it's almost 6weeks???? however, today Sunday I had a date with my treadmill. I did 30 min and burned 310 calories. I figured something is better than nothing and I really needed to start somewhere. I get disappointed when I don't see the scale moving, it's always been so hard for me to lose weight and now I've confirmed it, I have the sleeve and it's still hard. -

SusanFrye Hello, I just found this app and I relate to your frustration. I had my sleeve done on January 5th and I was weighing 183lb and I'm 4'9" so I'm pretty obese. Last time I weigh myself was exactly four weeks from my surgery weighing 168.4. "Only" 14.6 lbs down. I feel so sad so I'm also looking for support. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I'm walking a lot and staying very active at home with chores. I go back to work on Monday and back to my normal routine which I'm scared to. I need to fit in working out but I don't know where to start. Please help.
