I shared this quote from Bertrice Berry, one of my favorite quotes: "When you walk with purpose you collide with destiny" you got this! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using BariatricPal mobile app

Seriously so gorgeous! Thanks for the inspiration! Got any tips? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

I asked my Dr. They said no coffee because of the tannins. The PA also said they turn a blind eye to it. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

Ok, I need to ask... Am I weird??? LOL. I'm heading into week 4 post op. *First: I still buy SO MUCH FOOD! I've had to let my husband do the shopping. I now kinda get that a few fat free yogurts and low fat Soups will get me thru the week. *Second: I hit my first stall for 2 weeks and even gained 2 lbs back. My brain says "well that was fun! Surgery and ya only lost 25lbs!". I'm not afraid but I simply don't believe that I'm going to lose any more weight. I feel like I'm going crazy waiting to lose this weight. Has anyone else had similar feelings? It's so bizarre to me. I feel like I'm on the verge of something wonderful happening but then I look in the mirror and wonder is this really going to work?

Thanks for tbe kind words! Took the dog for a walk and caught a glimpse of the ginormous moon. It helped to get out and move and gain perspective. Everyone's shared experience is so helpful. I truly thank you for helping me walk through this journey. ???? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

After 2 weeks on Protein shakes and Water. That's the only thing that is appealing now. Over the last week I tried mashed potatoes, hummus, refried Beans, Soups and just tried blenderize chicken salad. Yuck! They all sit heavy and make me feel sick to my stomach. Any pointers?

What are your outcomes? How does your statistical data compare to others in the field? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

That's, why I weighing out the options I have read many people that have the revision from band to sleeve have had mostly complications due leaks so they end up having the bypass to correct it. So I was thinking maybe the bypass would be best... Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App I had the band. Hated it! Vomiting all the time. Had it removed a year ago and just got the sleeve. I love it! It feels so much better. No sickness at all no vomiting. I can tell when to stop eating. With the band my first bite always made me vomit. I'm 2 weeks post op and down a total of 24 lbs. I'm feeling great and very optimistic. I wish you great success which ever choice you make. ????

I'm using Vitamin patches! So happy I've found them. They're cheap too! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

I thought about that after I said something some time trying to do the right thing is not good Sent from my SM-G928T using the BariatricPal App I think it's good to be honest. You'll be fine. Sometimes the supervisor needs to ask questions and that's OK. Leaving emotions out of it you have the legal ability to take a leave to tend to your serious medical condition. ????
