Hey guys, so I finally downloaded myfitnesspal. I had another program before but since the majority uses my fitness pal I converted. My user name is Adayinmysleeve add me would love friends

I am stuck at 205!!! I wanna be in onederland sooooo bad! The darn scale barely has moved this week. So frustrated but I know that it will go down...with time and I will get there.............are we there yet??? lol

Hey, sorry to hear that you are so bummed. Its frustrating. I honestly think it has to do with the low BMI. I was around the same weight as you when I got surgery. Lost only 35lbs since surgery and this week it has only been 1lb. Keep what you are doing. As long as you are eating healthy, drinking water, exercising you should be fine. Its 30lbs that you have lost, thats a great thing!!! Imagine trying to lose 30lbs without the sleeve. It would probably have taken longer. We are here for you!! hugs!

I have an Xbox with a Kinect but my living room layout isn't enough space for the Kinect to "Find" big ol'me hahaha. Is that Wii good? My boyfriend has one... maybe I can borrow it

I am a scale addict I get on every morning. It the only way I can keep myself in check but when it doesn't move I get antsy. I have a Homemedics digital one. Its not pricy (around $25) and easy to read. My scale is actually very close to what my doctor has, so there aren't any scale discrepancy surprises.

I bought an ice cream maker too, inspired by egg face as well, still event tired it. Waiting for it to get warmer but its great to know that it taste yummy. let me know if you try more!

So I went to a support group today that is about 35-45 minutes away from me. It's away from my area but it was GREAT!!!!! Everything that I want from a support group. I was bummed before because the one near my area wasn't so great. Thank god I found this one. Just wanted to share :-)

Wishing you a speedy recovery and a great journey!

Love this thread!! Congrats!!

I only had the day before surgery as clear liquids. That was it. But I didn't have to lose 10% of my weight prior to surgery.

I had dizzy spells, it was low blood sugar cause I was consuming such a low amount of calories. I increased them some and voila! dizzy spells gone!

LOL the title made me laugh out loud for real... Clears suck there is no other way to put it. Just keep focused!! Good Luck

Omg I was sleeved a month and 2 days ago. I suffered from amenorrhea (no periods)due to PCOS. Guess Who came this morning after years being MIA? Aunt flow! I know it sounds silly but I am so excited! My pipes work! Thanks to the sleeve!!

The past two days I have been suffering from heartburn. Any advice? I take prilosec twice a day

My surgeon is suppose to call me tomorrow, I will definately ask cause its killing me!

Yes where at?

Great advice! Thanks so much. I am going to print this out!

I weighed myself yesterday. I was 208.4lbs.

So since everyone (doctors, friends and boyfriend) have been on my back to increase my colories to at least 800-900 (I had been doing 500-600) I have been trying to eat a little more. Unfortunately it made me soooooo sick this afternoon (spent about one hour throwing up and gagging on slime) that my stomach can't tolerate dinner. So fustrated

Going on a 6hr road trip this weekend with my fast food/chip loving boyfriend. I have packed premade shakes, protein bars, soy chips etc. I hope I am ready. Any suggestions?

Go to mybariatricpantry.com they sell Samples of different proteins. Maybe you can find one you like without breaking the bank.
