Hey lovely ladies that are losing! I'm looking to see if anyone has any medium scrubs they are willing to sell/swap...I also have some large scrubs I'm looking to sell/swap along with size 12 pants and large tops....let me know and keep working those sleeves!!!

9 weeks out and im down 32 pounds!!! Just thought id share!!!

Sweet! ill have to pick those up! thanks for the tip

Hey guys! What do you guys(and your nutritionist) think about eating smart ones and lean cuisines if in a bind? I dont see my nut until next week so I wanted your opinions. I bought a box of weight watchers ice cream. It has 10 g of sugar(which is alot i know) 90 cal,2g fat, 2g of protein, 17g of carbs. I know this is alot for a "diet" ice cream but i think its better than eating the real stuff...once in awhile isnt bad lol

Do you guys know those yummy iced Starbucks coffee drinks on those glass bottles that you can get in the grocery store? What do you think about those?

Im 3 weeks post op and so far have dropped 18 pounds, which I am so stoked about,but it seems to stay at the same number for a week. Is that normal? Im eating mushies, natural applesauce,SF pudding, tiny amout of mashed potato,low fat cream Soups. Im following my surgeons rules....any insight guys?! thanks!

Never thought of that!! Awesome! I am SO making that for dinner!! Thanks for the tip! chicken salad is getting pretty boring!

Ive been walking since surgery, anxious to start some sort of aerobics and weights.

Hey Guys...Im 3 weeks out today...when did everyone start exercising?

Hey Everyone! Didnt know where else better I can b***h and complain than here! So, Im 29 years old with a gorgeous 18 month old girl and a supportive husband. My older sister (who was always a size 6 ) and my mom are so not supportive and its driving me NUTS! Ever since I started my research for the sleeve my family have been so unsupportive of me. I dont care that they dont approve, but I have told them they dont have to like it,but they will respect my decision. I told my mom exactly what the surgery entailed and what my eating pattern would be post op. She even did her own research and commented that she didnt know part of my stomach was going to be removed. Fast forward a few weeks and I am now 2 weeks post op and she keeps bringing up that she didnt know part of the stomach was removed and if she knew that, she wouldve jumped in front of the stretcher at the hospital!! And now on top of all this...she keeps saying that my daughter will be my only child because I wont be able to have another child with the new stomach! I have given her so much research information and packets from my surgeon. I just wish my family would be supportive like they said they would!! Sorry for the venting!!

Yeah, I stopped drinking the Special K and started on the Atkins shakes..love them!

Thank you so much for suggesting these! Went out today and bought the Cafe Caramel to start and I LOVE THEM! thank you !!!

Hang in there. Im one week out and just starting to feel like myself again. Like everyone says, use your pain meds! Ive had to use mine a handful of times and it helps. I think everyone on here has had that "omg what did i do" feeling but for me it passed right away. Keep positive and look to the skinny and healthy future!!

What is everyones thoughts on the Special K Protein shakes? They have 10g of protein for one 10oz bottle. Very very tasty but it has 18g of sugar. This has to be the 5th form of protein Ive tried....Hated the Isopure, tried the GNC whey protein-hated...I see Syntrax on here alot. Where can I get samples? Thanks skinnies!!

Im out day 4 now..feeling good. I find it very hard to get all my protien in, do you guys feel that way too? Im constantly sip sip sip all day. Any liquids I have I mix in a few spoonfuls of Isopure. The only pain I can complain about is the hole where they took the stomach out of. Lots or bruising and tenderness but I take my pain meds as needed and take small walks and catnaps during the day. This new "full" feeling is something to get used to. Mentally-to only drink a few ounces at a time and feel so full you may burst is weird to get around. I can start my full liquids next week, very excited for that. Does it bother you to see people that live in your house eat normal foods? I can honestly say it doesnt bother me at all! Im sure that may change in time. Anyway..thanks for letting me tell my story! You guys are an inspiration! Keep up the good work all you LOSERS!! (losers meaning weight loss losers! lol)
