I have been consistent the whole time? But Cool thing maybe the Turbo Fat Burner kicked in,

DId not do my surgery there but from Chicago that is a top notch hospital

If its bitter try reducing it in your protein shake, In cooking the opposite of bitter is adding salt, Salt will reduce the bitterness, I would grind them in a spice grinder add a little salt and drop in 1 oz of protein shake

July 18 this year and I agree This place is the GOOGLE of Fatty forums, If you cant find it in a search here - Some of the wizards will get you the answers, Naples Florida - 100 plus lost and lovin the journey

Thats only a few pounds, Don't panic that is water or just your body, Just stay focused on the goal and get ready for the journey, This is tool and you need to set up your shop to use this tool, Read all the Post OP posts and pay attention to the Screw ups, Read mine, This will be the best journey and is not bad at all, Enjoy the ride

Start with a Ramekin of protein drink - There is nothing wrong with putting a cup of ice in a nutra bullet and diluting the protein drink a little, The Premier is thick to me, i run ice with mine every day to thin it out. Nobody says you have to slam down 9oz at time, take it slow you have a journey, I also love the protein waters by Premier they are light, fruity and go down easy

Dead Nuts on - This is science, Take your stomach - 85% = 15% - You can not eat as much, wires and signals are getting crossed, Head games - Be careful - Set a daily routine and just stick to it

Do a search here on Head Games! It is not easy especially in the beginning - You need to finds something else to do, you are not hungry, it is in your head - Once you whip the head games the rest is easy, ok maybe not easy but it will pass - Stop reading adds on signs, commercials, boxes, etc. Take up a hobby, Watch Movies, Hell I bought a puppy to be my past time, would not advise that He is alot of work. You have changed your lifestyle and are getting healthy, F#$ck FOOD! Two Options 1. Be Fat, tired and unhealthy and DIE quickly 2. F#$ck Food and be happy, healthy and live longer Up to you

My youngest son is Traveling from Naples Florida to the Dunkin Parade on thanksgiving, so he will not be here - He is a top drummer and G.C.H.S is a power player in marching bands. Yes these Naples Florida kids are going to freeze they ass off I have a culinary degree and end up every year doing Thanksgiving for both families, Mine and my x wife - I made it clear this year that i would prefer to skip this event but the pressure was put on by all the kids, So started early yesterday - Hung over feeling like hell to prep for 23 people. Once again a full spread of all the foods that got us into the Fatty forum group. Mashed, Sweet, deserts and of course my favorite to make a giant bowl of bread smashed and loaded with butter and spices. The stuffing. So the moral of this is I would advise you dont try this and be as stupid as I am being this weekend, If you are the cook of Turkey day nothing will turn you off more then to make platters of food, bust you ass, and be soaked in carbs and fats to know you will not even think about trying 90 percent of it. but I really do not have a lot of options since parents and in laws are older, so will play thru it - Want to disgust yourself after losing all the weight - Peel and Mash a bag of potatoes add pound of butter and parsley and get them ready for later today, This is a giant Mind Screwing Pilgrim conspiracy that the Indians had planned on Plymouth rock!

Water Warm Tea and Go to bed

Done two tables 28 people fed and i have a buzz - so all good and they had a good time DONT DO THIS UNLESS YOU ARE STRONG AS HELL - BUT ALL SAID WAS WORTH IT

I have completed this feast - Way to much of a freakin head game for me to cook for all these people, but I am glad i did it and the feast is set to be served in a few hours, No i cant eat carbs or heavy foods right now but I am only 4 months pre Op - I would heave it up, but some of the veterans around here will jump in. Two spoons of my stuffing and i would be screwed, It was not as bad as i thought it would be and my kids are happy - Now its time for me to sip some vodka and hide by the TV. Let them graze and one thing for sure - THEY ARE TAKING EVERY BIT OF THE LEFTOVERS OUT OF THIS HOUSE - It was just a learning experience but i quickly seperated myself from the food and just did it as a job, If I did not due the surgery I would most likely never be able to do this for my grandkids, so i twisted it around in my head and vodka can fix the rest of the mental issues.

Stop breath and relax Do not go buying a bunch of stuff - You just need a cup and a nutra bullet - You will not need a scale baby fork or any of that - Trust me you are getting knocked for a loop soon and here is my suggestions Buy nothing for the food or liquids - Buy yourself a new pillow, and a good set of Bose Headset to just chill - All you have to do is sip water - any cup will do this just fine, as for food that will not be a issue, read this site on post op first week - Sleep - walk - sip - sip walk sleep sip is all you need

Being Joking - Over Fertile

Pre Op would not even try to cook - Reach out for support - I just came up with a idea - Buy the whole freakin meal from Whole foods and have it delivered done. Guarantee i will not be jerking around with food on x mas - Just figured out Bob Evans and Whole foods do it - Sure there are more - F#$ck the home made bully poop Buy it and put it on your platters - Should have figure this out earlier

Say what .... Guys pay attention Do not date Post OP Sleeve girls, They are rigged! I never heard this before, Thank you .... Saved me 21 years of work - My two are off to college could not imagine starting again. Oh wait me and the dog are neutered - good to date Post OP Sleevers

can we make this a pop up for all new Sleevers -

Love it finally another person who is not jumping up and running to the scale - and is focused on vitamins and supplements. Oh i agree you move off the healthy eating to just a little of junk and you feel like hell - I drank Friday and wrecked my whole day yesterday, No eating yesterday, feeling like hell - As for 50 yes that is great you are about the same as me 3/4 a pound a day. Also I can not eat either it is a pain in the ass to eat and most of times painful

Just be yourself - As a guy my view is you are to focused on food, I go out all the time, I am also a chef so i will tell you stay clear of that fish dish - Talipa is a cheap fish that is cooked in tons of oils and butters and then smothered to make it. If this food thing is really driving you nuts just ask him to go for appetizers, Get a Sushi Grade fish like tuna sea bass or hallibat - Broiled not smothered, One shrimp cocktail shared and a piece of sea Bass and you cant tell you are not eating - ask if they have puree - I go out all the time and i actually enjoy masking the surgery, But learn to move your food around and mix it up. - If he asks to much you can use my excuse, Just had a heavy dental cleaning yesterday and my teeth and gums are sore. Yes its a lie but brush your teeth hard and call it a dental thing BTW from a guys point of view i would never pay to much attention to what a date is eating or not eating, So dont put to much into worrying about it

Congradulations gotta feel good

Not before surgery but read my long post on how i Screwed up - You are taking the right approach the surgery is a tool the head games are a nightmare - One thing i will say is after the surgery your desire to eat and follow food will diminish - So the tool does help in this matter

This is common - You may want to try some of the liquid vitamins also - I mix em all up really cant handle the pill also i dont toss them but they do raise hell for a long time The powders work good for me as long as i dilute them with protien shake

Also try the gas drops or gel tabs for baby's they did help - This will pass and We all know it sucks

about six weeks for the full heal of the incisions - Water sucks i agree - But you gotta plow thru it

Iron most likely but it also can be dry blood from the surgery - Be careful i would say keep a eye on it and get off iron if still you may have some dried blood
