    Ugggh! I Hate This Drain!

    Help, I Just Don't Understand!

    for me, if I don't buy them and have them around me..then I won't consume them. No carb is the best way to maximize the weight loss. No sugar, no processed white flour, and no carbonated beverages. If write down your weight on a calender on the same day each week, you'll see the benefit of having a healthy week. This makes me want to turn in a better number week after week. Monday's are my "log" days on my wall calendar. Turned out to be a great motovator

    Carb Or Low Carb...that Is The Question?

    Low carb all the way! no sugar, no white flour, no soda, no carbonation. I've lost 100 pounds now in under 4 months from it.

    truth be told..it will take your breath away. I just had a face of shock when they did it....2 mins later I was fine

    Pale?

    could be blood pressure going to a normal state
  6. have you tried the 3oz liquid protein shots? they have over 20 grams in just 3 oz
  7. not possible to bust a staple. You would have to be so full to the point of crippling pain before that even could happen. Liquids pass on through. You're fine

    Ate To Much?

    That could be because thats a major gas producing food

    Ugh!

    Too Much Activity?

    Sounds like the incisions under the skin in the abdomen wall isn't healed yet. Just need to keep that in mind for a few more weeks. It does all go away...and pretty fast

    I Hate Veggies

    the taste for sugar changed for me..mainly cause I cut it out of my diet. Sweet things turn me off now...which is actually a great thing

    Ate To Much?

    Its more of eating till you feel full of the RIGHT food choices.....this will ensure you stay within calorie goals. Personally, I would have stuck to the chicken and shrimp only. Cake is a gateway ...evil food

    Chinese Food

    there are lean meat items I still have now post op. Things like chicken terryaki, sushi, grilled fish, shrimp, and crab I'm still having. Mind you I avoid battered and fried versions of that. Also, I used to be a big Lo Mein fan, now the noodles swell up in the tummy and they make me full uncomfortable...so better watch out for the noodles!

    Well...i Really Am A New Man

    This sounds similar to me. I was 390 when I started. How tall are you? Age? if you don't mind telling.

    Surgeon Consultation Fee?

    mine was $250
  16. Any other guys out there finding out you can eat and eat things without issue BUT you're still losing weight? Anyone else doing no carb like me? I'm living off of meat, wheat thins, cashews, and right now I"m munching on some BBQ Pork skins (who knew they were high in Protein, low fat, low cal?) I never had any issues with moving back into solid foods after being sleeved Jan 12th. I probably advanced much more quickly than what I was suppose to but I never had any pains or food intolerance's. Hell I can drink and eat together to some degree and can chug a bit still. Maybe I'm not mentally realizing that even though I'm eating more frequently, the quantity and the food choice is totally different than pre op? Anyone else noticing this? I'm still losing on average of 5 pounds a week like this and I'm right at 100 pounds lost since Jan. W

    $65,000 Nightmare

    The lawyer would collect fees from a winning verdict. Sometimes just the threat of a lawsuit will fix the situation..

    $65,000 Nightmare

    The Insurance company would be the primary party to sue since they led you to believe you were approved, sent you through the 6 months of hoops and wasted your time. Be sure to pull all documents you've received showing anything that showed approval or hint of approval.

    Ok, Gym Rats. I Need Advice!

    Yea you can still do SOME cardio..but it doesn't have to be your primary. I still run on a tredmill for 30 mins THEN lift weights. Its my warm up
  21. I went through this phase to. It passes and I found out it was some of the soft foods I had been eating with artifical sweeteners (for me it was sugar free pudding) that were causing the issue

    Protein?

    I'd still add in the protein liquids either in the form of the 3oz protein shots or protein shakes. It promotes lean muscle mass and helps the body adjust to the change

    Ok, Gym Rats. I Need Advice!

    For me, weight training to keep the body toned was most important. This ment no so much on the cardio. Also for guys like me, I wanted to prevent the muscle mass loss so I wouldn't become a weakling..
  24. You know..I saw the puree food stage as simply too much effort and never had anything pureed. I just kept finding different soft foods that were healthy. Maybe I'm just a guy
