love and attachment have nothing to do with one another, attachment comes from a place of fear, while love… well, real love is pure, kind, and self less

Your Recommendations In Prep For The Sleeve...
Beyon Sleeve replied to fattymcfatterson's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You've probably heard these, but here's a list of things I did and wish I had did more! •Drink lots of Water, get used to it •stop drinking soda, lower caffeine intake •don't drink during meals (easier said than done) •try different Protein Shakes, don't buy in bulk...your taste may change •start walking and keep walking •take pictures weekly, you'll be amazed at the results! •don't "live by the scale, die by the scale", limit your weigh-ins •vitamins, Vitamins,vitamins! •don't eat late at night, set goals to gradually lower your night eating •many small meals, not a few big meals •get small containers, baggies, shake containers, blender, food scale Hope this helps! Good luck on your journey! -
Does Anybody Drink A Protein Shake Before Bed?
Beyon Sleeve replied to bethp's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Eating before bed is such a hard habit to break...but not impossible. I don't drink protein shakes before bed. I drink one in the morning and at 3pm. I started making goals about eating at night (one of my biggest downfalls) after I was sleeved. First, nothing after 9pm, then 8:30, now I'm at 8pm. If you could drink it earlier, I think that would be much better for you -
I was told by a teacher today that I was getting TALLER? I guess losing 52 pounds makes you look taller!

Looking For Size 16 Clothes!
Beyon Sleeve replied to scgal's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I know what you mean! I'm thankful there's a Talbots outlet 10 minutes from me. I got 4 pairs of Capri pants and 2 shirts for $36!!! Gotta love 90% off! I just made a drop to Goodwill and the consignment store or I would have sent you my duds Good luck! -
I'm a southern girl, so I love my grits too! Every Sunday I meet my brother for breakfast at Bob Evans. I USED to get the "cardiac arrest with a side of diabetes". Now I get a cup (which takes me 2 meals to eat) of grits and 2 turkey sausage links (eat one, take the other one home with the grits). They also have a great veggie Egg Beater omelet that I get sometimes (only can eat 1/4 of it though). Have fun discovering "new" foods!

Can't Get My 64 Oz Of Water In!
Beyon Sleeve replied to skinny yaya's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
One of the HARDEST things to do is get the 64oz in. I love Crystal lite in water. Don't forget to count broths/soups, popsicles, coffee, tea, milk, ect. as liquids. Start with an attainable goal then gradually work your way up. All we can do is try each day! -
When Did You Start Protein Drinks After Surgery?
Beyon Sleeve replied to desertmom's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was drinking protein whey shots (30g) that come in a tube in the hospital. They were tolerable. My Dr. said protein is a MUST, and I have been drinking Premier Protein (30g) or EAS (17g) 1-2 a day from day 3. My goal is to get 70-100g of protein in daily, and I do 95% of the time . You can always ask your Dr. again if you have any questions. Just like we are all different on here, so is some of the Dr. advice... -

Went to a Pampered Chef party last night. Good part: got some great stuff. Bad part: ate some carbs. Didn't go overboard, didn't gain a lb, but still felt guilty...
