iattcom 96 Posted October 13, 2018 One can of vegetarian retried Beans split between 5 1/2 cup bowls with a sprinkle of cheese on top. Just ready to be popped into the microwave for a minute or so for a meal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iattcom 96 Posted October 14, 2018 I actually ate one bowl for dinner and a bowl the same size of cottage cheese for lunch. I drank one and a half Protein Shakes today and have not had any Water because I didn’t get up until after 12:00 today and after my shower I had to have my coffee. Then I had to wait 30 minutes before I could eat, and after I ate I had to wait another 30 minutes before I could drink the Protein shakes. 1 Liz The New Me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iattcom 96 Posted October 14, 2018 Just had lunch and at 1:15 I will be able to have my first Protein Shake for the day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yvonne47 86 Posted October 14, 2018 Ladies and gentlemen I don't know if you guys have heard of something called skinny syrups its a no calorie and no sugar liquid flavoring I just added a drop to my Protein Shake (which it says you can add to coffee oatmeal lattes yogurts etc.) And it made a big difference in taste the shake wasn't as charky way more tolerable. Mind you my surgery for the sleeve is in 2 weeks hopefully it will still taste great afterwards. They come in different flavors as well I saw pumpkin spice, vanilla, and mocha flavors from TJMAXX.

I had my first bite of real food last night and that tiny amount of chicken salad might have been the best thing ever. Super frustrated that the scale didn’t move the whole week I was gone though. Ugh! Like how is that possible. I’m hoping I was swollen from flying. Still some pain on left side but so much better. How are you? I'm doing okay. Still extremely fatigued though and having trouble getting enough Water or food but getting better everyday. I also still have pain on the left side and the incision right above my belly button. scale is moving but I still can't see it yet...apparently everybody else can. our bodies are peculiar machines...I have no doubt that you will get back to losing again.

MissPoodle 58 Posted October 17, 2018 I'm 4 weeks post op today. It's still really hard getting my Protein requirements and enough fluids each day. So I'm sure I'm tired from not eating enough!!
