Thank you so much everyone! I do feel like a new person. Every time I see myself in the mirror or put on some clothes that I wouldn't even have fit in 10 years ago I am just amazed. I'm very thankful for getting sleeved. Happy thanksgiving everyone! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Yes I did have a stall around week 3. Then again in month I think 4 I stalled for a while. I didn't think I would ever get bellow 230 lol. But it passes, don't get discouraged! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Congrats!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you so much! I didn't really have a strict exercise routine, I would just try to go walking whenever I could. Or if I couldn't go walking I would try to do some sit ups, squats, push ups, little stuff like that before bed. When were you sleeved? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How is everyone doing? Anybody kinda nervous with thanksgiving right around the corner? How about feeling a little less restriction? Sometimes depending on what I'm eating I feel like I can eat more than I could a few weeks ago. I was sleeved on June 27th here are my results so far! I'm feeling great!

Has anyone attempted alcohol yet? I had mine on June 27th and I'm not really a drinker and don't mind waiting for months down the road. But today is my moms bday so I was wondering if one cocktail would be a bad idea this soon? Opinions? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

4 months or 4 weeks? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Oops I meant four weeks lol. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I can't believe it's been four months already! I had a stale around week 3 but I'm not back to losing at a good pace. I think so anyways I'm back to more normal food but not eating much of it. Still having a hard time getting my Protein in. But here are my stats! Highest weight : 315 Surgery weight : 293 Current weight : 265 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Like everyone said don't over shop for your post op diets. I did it and wasted just about everything. Powerade zero has always been my go to drink, and sugar free popsicles. During my pre op diet they were lifesavers for me, that and Jello. I would drink premier Protein shakes pre op. But after surgery I couldn't drink the premier shakes anymore and I was sick of the jello. I still love my sf popsicles though and they help you get your liquids in.

I had mine 6/27 and I'm to the point where I can start intruding normal food into my diet but I'm finding it hard still. But honestly I think the problem is I'm just scared I'm gonna mess up lol I know that sounds dumb. So I was wondering if anybody had any tips for quick and easy Breakfast ideas that I can take to work with me or the best Protein bars that they've found?

Alrighty everybody I need some advice! I had my surgery June 27th and have been struggling to get all my Protein in. I loved the premier shakes pre op but can't stand them now. So I bought some unflavored Isopure powder yesterday. Tried to add a scoop of it to my mashed potatoes tonight but I did something wrong and it came out horrible lol. So what is the best way to get all the protein in? Or some of the best foods to add the powder too? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was gonna buy some GENEPRO but I keep seeing bad reviews about it too.. Then the lady at gmc suggest the Isopure powder. The only thing I've managed to do that I can drink so far is mix it with some Water and put a squirt of watermelon flavoring in it. But still, I would like to find a much easier solution.

I was sleeve on a Monday and went home Tuesday morning. Could have showered then but I ended up showering on Wednesday morning. Just let the Water run over your incisions and don't rub them. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

How long did it take you to get some relief with the Colace? I took some today and really want it to kick in soon lol. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Well I had finally gotten it out before I took the Colace so that was a relief. I took the Colace to prevent further constipation and so far it is working.You still take it daily or how often? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I still take it daily. I'm afraid to stop.I don't blame ya at all. I've never been constipated in my life either and today and last night has been the worst part of this whole surgery so far for me.

Hey everyone! Well I haven't been feeling too good lately, I'm not sure why. I had my sleeve done on 6/27 and I have been doing great every since. Until Saturday I woke up and had a scrambled egg and some cottage cheese, a few hours later it was like all my gas pain in my shoulders came back. Later on I took my evening Vitamin and instantly felt like I was going to throw up. Ever since then I have felt like someone is sitting on my chest, if I take too big of a breath it hurts, I keep having little hiccups and it hurts. So being scared to throw up I had no food yesterday but one string cheese and only a few bites of Cheerios this morning. I'm trying so hard to get my Water intake in but I'm not, and I'm not getting hardly any Protein in. I'm not really sure what to do or if I did something wrong? But it is very uncomfortable. Also, TMI, maybe lol but I am not having normal bowel movements at all, so I don't know if that could play a part in it or not. Any advice? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Let me know how they are! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I agree! I was a Cheezit fool! You know how they put on the back of the boxes "Get your own Box".....I think they wrote that for me! haha. Sadly, I will never be able to have Cheezits ever again.....but that's my own rule for me. here a cool thing I found to make your own cheezits! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I must be in my week 3 stall too I keep reading about it so I decided to not weigh all week but this morning I couldn't help it and it hasn't changed in a week! Hopefully this don't last long. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

This might be a dumb question but is this only a concern once I'm back to eating a "normal" meal like chicken and veggies. I just started the soft food stage and say if I'm eating some cottage cheese or a string cheese do I need to go real slow? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

What about hard boiled eggs? Did anyone have problems with them? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I thought it was odd too he cleared me so soon after reading about a lot of people having to wait much longer. But I've swam more than once now and all my glue is still covering my incisions so they don't seem to be bothered. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I was cleared to swim at my one week follow up. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
