Are we sure this is a real person? I dont think our belly could tolerate OJ.

Just remember why you needed to do this. I'm 11 weeks post op and 70lbs down. I don't regret anything at all. I feel better lighter and lot healthier. You will be fine just stay positive

Drinking more when I feel I am hungry is a very good idea. I will be trying to drink more tomorrow! Great idea

I miss coffee! My surgeon said I could drink decaf tea, but can't have decaf coffee until 3 months post-op. He said there is a chemical/acid in coffee -- even decaf -- that could cause ulcerations in my new tummy. I have had a non-fat latte every day for 7 years! I love steaming the milk and the smell of the coffee pods as I put them in my Starbucks Barista machine! I have a countdown timer on my phone that will signal June 21, 2012 when I will try my first post-op non-fat (or 1%) decaf latte.
Here's a TMI story: I went for my 2-week post-op doctor appointment and asked the doc when I could have my latte again. He said 3 months. I told my husband with great enthusiasm, but he asked, "Great for your latte, but when can we have sex again?" I looked at him with a blank stare and he immediately said, "OK . . . got it! I now know your priorities!" He was joking and I knew the answer to his question -- but it has been a running joke with us ever since.

Just a note, that if you want to chat on facebook, we have a secret facebook group going on there! It is called May 2012 Sleevers.
It is a secret group, so nobody can see the group, nobody can see who is in it, nobody can see our posts!
Would love to see you all there!
Just friend me on facebook (Sharon Ivanauskas) & then I will add you to the group!

You can do this! I have faith in you. Get back on track. Go on a 3 day liquid diet and write down everything you eat thereafter. YOU CAN DO THIS! I'm proud of you already!

I think you are trying to eat too much. Remember, start with your Protein. If there is room for anything else, then you can try it. We went out to dinner last night. I had less than half a chicken breast and a few bites of mashed potatoes. I didn't have any rooom for the roasted vegtables. I brought home 80% of my dinner and will eat from it for the next couple of days.
food doesn't interest me anymore. I used to live to eat. I'd be planning my next meal while eating. It's a great feeling to feel in control. May this is how an person w an eating disorder feels. This difference is, I still follow my program and work to get my protein and Water in. I'm losing slowly and know that one day I'll have to work harder at losing weight. Our sleeves do stretch out. So take advantage of the tightness now and loss all you can.

I'm scheduled May 15th. I've stated my pre-op diet already. This is my first day. Getting nervous.
