I like your thinking Rome . I have done enough dieting, this is change is happening within my body due to my better choices and because of the restriction I now have the control! Thank goodness for miracles .

Seems like we are all doing about the same. I don't get my Protein or my Water in and exercise is only sporadic. What protein are you guys drinking? I was doing Unjury but it is making me sick. I am just now able to take my chewable vitamins. My blood work all came back ok so I guess I am not doing as bad as I feel like I am.

I was sleeved on May 12th also . last weigh in total loss was 35 lbs. Hit a stall this past week myself. I am having a difficult time getting in all of the Protein. Some days are better eating days than others. Anyone else ???

Me too! I'm gagging over protein drinks! I'm like u some days are better. I'm 3 wks lost 35.. hang in there!

Rome, I couldn't have said it better myself. This is the first time in my life that I don't think of myself being on a diet. I've changed my life. Nothing is off limits, but I try to make smart choices.

I'm 11 weeks postop (sleeved 5/14) and I'm down 44lbs. I don't stress over the numbers. I was a 20/22 preop and now I'm a 14/16.

However, I've been having problems eating and drinking for the past few weeks. Lots of chest pain and the feeling of food getting stuck, spasms, etc. I'm doing a HIDA scan soon since the ultrasound of my gallbladder checked out ok. These problems have caused me to become dehydrated, get a UTI, and I'm also unable to swallow my Vitamins. I'm a hot mess at the moment. But I'm better than where I used to be! I'm off 2 prescription blood pressure meds.
