I'm so emotional about my weight loss. I saw a pic of me and cried in PUBLIC! I look soooo small! It's a good thing but I was overwhelmed! I'm in a size 14 I haven't worn a 14 since high school and even then I was considered big.

I want to lose 50 more to reach my goal of 170. My surgeon isn't happy with with my lost. He feels I'm 20 pounds behind where I should be. But his nurse is always encouraging & positive. She's had weight loss surgery and understands.

I'm emotional & excited! Happy losing everyone!

I was in the same place as you. What I did was start making make ahead meals, too. Google Eggface ... she has lots of recipes that can be made ahead. I use her site for inspiration. However my go to quick food is chicken. I season a pack of boneless chicken breast & thighs with garlic & herb Mrs. Dash & olive oil then put it on the George Foreman. Put them in individual freezer bags and I'm set. I have also done pork chops & turkey burgers, too. I can eat them anytime for any meal. I also eat alot of veggies. I cook 2 or 3 veggies then put them in little storage containers and freeze those too. Plain greek yogurt with a pack of Splenda & sugar-free fruit is something else I keep on hand.

I hope this helps ...

@Writegirl - I am semi-hating this too and some times I feel profane about it as well!!!

But as my daughter tells me everyday, "what's done is done and now you have to learn to live with it." It's very very hard; I take it sip by sip, day by day.

I was sleeved on the 24th and have also been really struggling. I was told I need to get in 60 oz of Water and 50 grams of whey--specifically whey--Protein. I'm really hating the **** out of this. Sorry about the profanity. I'm feeling pretty profane right now.

I was having the very same issue. My advice is just keep trying. I try to drink 3oz every hour. But this is something that I started this past Monday. And it was sooooo hard at first, but it has gotten better. I am still at a deficient with Protein, but my Dr. told me to concentrate on getting hydrated.

PLEASE just try!! Keep trying!

Tea & Diluted juice are saving my life. I've attempted so much Propel & Gatorade I can even bring it to my lips anymore!

Thank you ALL! I would not have made it!!!!

I haven't been able to tollorate Water either.Ive been drinking alot of mint tea.I had the same issues with my chest hurting.I had surgery last Tues Jan,10 and im getting in around 60-70 oz a day and about 50-60 grams of Protein.I see my Dr on wed for my 1st follow up apt I think im doing pretty good.I can drink room temp stuff but not cold.

60-70oz????? Oh my! I can't get through a 16.9 bottle of propel with protein! I don't think I'm even getting 20oz!!!!!!

Thank you all for your advice. The warm water/tea did the trick!!! I don't know why I didn't figure that out since I could drink coffee and broth. Yes the coffee is Decaf. That's all I drink!

This is sooooo difficult for me because I was a huge Water drinker and now I can't drink it! I told my daughter that I wanted the other part of my stomach back so I can gave some Water. It was a major part of my skin care regime and now what am I going to do ... have ACNE??????

I was sleeved on Wednesday 1/11 and I can't drink water! When I do it feels stuck in my chest. After my surgery I had gas and had to stay in the hospital until Saturday. I'm taking very small sips but it still won't go down smoothly. I'm afraid that I'm going to dehydrate. The only thing I can tolerate is coffee and chicken broth.

Please help with advice!
