8 oz of Ricotta cheese 1/2 cup grated Parmesan 1 large Egg, beaten 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning salt & pepper to taste 1/2 cup Marinara Sauce 1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella Cheese Mix ricotta cheese, parmesan, beaten egg, seasonings together and place in a oven proof dish. Pour marinara on top and top with mozzarella cheese. Bake it in the oven @ 450 for about 20-25 minutes (best) or nuke it till hot and bubbly. I usually made it first in the oven and heated the leftovers in the microwave. This one is yummy... It's from Theworldaccordingtoeggface.com

Yes I had this!!! It slowly went away and it is No longer an indent in my belly!!!

I was sleeved on 3-1 the first two weeks the weight came right off. Now I stall out for a few days/week or so and then lose only a pound! I know whatcha mean. I'm feeling very disappointed too! I think it's very normal, but I still don't like it! Starting weight was 187 I am currently 155. So only 32lbs!!

No staples, no stitches and no drain! My doctor used the glue on the incision to seal it up!

Sweet dreams!!! My week was rough too!!! ;(

Looks yummy! Gonna try this one for sure!

I am Defiantly going to try this! Sounds yummy!

I don't know if it's normal but I had the same feeling. It felt like I was run over across my ribs by a truck! I also had soreness in my back when I sat for long periods of time.

Wylers light-- I only drink the pink lemonade. They do come in other flavors. 98cents a box at walmart.. You can also get them at walgreens and dollar tree!!

I am able to eat 1/2 cup of protein per sitting and a bite or two of veggies. I see people on here saying how they are only able to take a bite or two of food etc. How much could you consume at about two months out. I'm worried I am able to eat too much!!!

Yay! You go girl!

I dont even remember the exact reason why the doc said I should get it. But it was something along the lines of when you had some sort of trauma and they insert a tube in you it could so damage because your anatomy is different! Something like that!

I don't currently have one, but I do plan on getting one. My doctor gave me the form to order one as she recommends it.

I was sleeved march 1. Weight before surgery 211 weight day of surgery 187 current weight 159. As you seen in one of my posts I had a slip up too with sweets. Been excercising at the 3-5 days a week. 3-5 miles bike/treadmill then 20 mins of working arms/legs. I have been losing slowly. I just got over a two week stall! I too feel great. Have an unlimited amount of energy as well!!

Thanks everybody for your encouraging words! I am defiantly not going to repeat this daily! It's still a struggle to make the right food choices!

Why does the bad stuff go down so easy!! When I eat my protein it's much harder to get down and I can't eat nearly as much of it. I am worried I won't win this battle if I do little cheats like that. I am only two months out from surgery and down 32lbs. Sometimes I feel like I just loose control and have to have something sweet!!!! Arg! So mad at myself!

I made this today!!! Soooooo yummy!! I ate it for lunch- gonna have it for dinner too!!

I have the same problem with my platelets. I was diagnosed with ITP back in 2000. Steroids didn't work for me either. My platelets were as low as 4 thousand. They were going to remove my spleen but decided to intravenous meds - immune gobulion- spelling could be off. It help my platelets to start producing. I sat at 30,000 for a few years. I wish him luck. I used kaiser permanente at the time at they were great 650-742-2173

When I was going through the whole weight loss process in the beginning : seeing the nut and case manager etc. What struck me odd was that half of the people telling me how to eat and what to do to live a healthy lifestyle where overweight! I wanted to ask them why they haven't got the surgery? It kinda made me wonder if they knew something I didn't! Anyhow I didn't ask them because I felt like it would be rude! I do however tell my overweight friends about it and highly reccomend it to them!

Now I'm not sure whether or not I will buy some and drink it!

I think I am going to start drinking them!!! What kind do you all drink?

Had my surgery through kaiser Richmond ca. I was never told to drink protein drinks. I wonder why?? I see on her everyone drinks them!!!

Surgery date march 1,2012 Starting weight 211 Weight day of surgery 187 Weight as of today 159 So happy I broke the one fifties.... Still have forty more lbs to go!!!
