    Wonderful site for Gastric Sleeve

    I'm 6 weeks post-op and have lost about 37 lbs. I have heard that gaining a little weight does happen sometime~everyone's different. I didn't lost any weight the week before my period (always the case for me regardless of the diet), but lost 5 right after. My concern is that I seem to be able to eat more than others and also I have trouble drinking all the liquids.

    I just tried to join The Daily Plate and got the reply that its not accepting new members!?! What's that all about? So, is anyone noticing that as time goes on they can eat a little bit more at a sitting? My big problem is drinking. I just can't drink that much water--any good alternatives?

    Wonderful site for Gastric Sleeve

    I had the Gastric Sleeve surgery 6 weeks ago and have lost 35 lbs. I'm off the liquid diet and have been eating solids for a while now. I'm very surprised that can eat as much as I can--I don't mean I'm eating scads of food, but definitely more than what I thought, i.e. 1/2-3/4 of a sandwich, sometimes more than a bowl of cold cereal, etc. I am terrified that my stomach is stretching and that I'll stop losing or worse still gain weight! Also, with all the liquids we're supposed to drink, I find that nothing tastes like it did before surgery. I'd like nothing more than a Diet Coke, but of course that's forbidden. Diet lemonade, low calorie juices, Crystal Lite, even unsweetened iced tea doesn't taste the same. I just can't drink that much plain water! What is everyone else doing?:thumbup:
