Well i have used mine at a buffet in NM and rather than paying adult price i paid the kid price and they let me have a togo box for my remander food. But to use it at other places the kids menue is not healthy so i just order my meal and take my meal home for left overs or my daughter and i share.

True, i know how you feel i had mine done in december and i had all those thoghts in my head as well. And i am a diabetic. Well was. I sat with my family before i did it and my husband asked me one important thing. Who was i doing this for. Was it for him because he loved me for who i was. Was i doing it for all those who looked down on me because they were never part of my life. My answer was. Me all me. I wanted to be healthier i hated take all my diabetic meds and insulin. I wanted to go out and try new things i wanted to be a part of my families activities. I have a 20 year old and a 3 year old. I wanted my daughter to have me arount. I was doing it fir me I took my last shot in the hospital. And my endocrinoligest told me that i am no longer diabetic. I was so happy. This is hard work and something i will have to work with for the rest of my life i have been given the tools to work with its up to me what i can do. When i decided to do thisi had already been talking to my husband and son and they were concerned but they were my biigges suport i told my parents and brother first the my husbands parents and family. And my closes friends. They all had concerns and the all asked me to reconsider. But the all told me that if i was determind the would be their. I oppened up to ecery one else after my surgery. And i did that because i wanted to be their for some that was thinking about it. If you need some to talk just let me know.

Your doing good just eat during your thirty mins you will get use to it take smoothys with protine wirh you at work. So it will all be part of your life and you will be comfortable doing it. Keep up the good work

It will be fine your doing good. Try som beens or mashed potatos with meat gravy. You will be to real food soon.

Thank you so much for this information, i will forward to my husband with the emphases on i need a spa day every week. lol, love it. so i will have to do more weight training and it will help thanks again

Congrats see the pounds melt away. With work

You are doing so good. Thanks for sharing

When i was in the pre opp phase. I was the problem child i could not drink the protien shakes the suggested. Still cant i start to gag So they suggested slimfast. As long as it was a Meal Replacement So i had those before you can find coupons for them as well and i would get them at wallgreens vecause the gave coupons for them when you purchased them as well. Now 4 months out still cant drink the protien shakes tried alot of them. Even no taste

That is great thank you for posting the great news it is so encouraging.

I did not want to buy clothes that i would shrink out of. So i went to good will, savers and thrift stores. I am 4 months out and i do have to buy a swim suit that is going to be my first new purchase.

When we traveled during that phase i ate. Toco bell beans. Or kfc mashed potatos. And a smoothy from starbucks you could do broth from subway Just a few ideas. If you go to a restraunt you can get soft vegies and just mash them wirh your fork. Good luck

OMG I am so glad i found this group, i was Sleeved on December 16 2011 and i lost 40 lbs since my surgery and 24 for my pre opp, so a total of 64, i like my clothing baggy but i am wearing 1x pant, and 2x top, and that is from 3x and 4x i am so excited. I was a Bad diabetic for years, and i took my last shot in the hospital and have not taken any more shots and pill since then, I went in to the Dr last month and he tells me i was no longer a diabetic. that was wonderful to hear. i had been looking at different post and was starting to feel that maybe i was not doing so well by the looks from all your post i am right on track. i live in a real rule area and i am not able to go to support group so i come on to this sight a lot to look for all concerns. I am able to walk for about an hour now and not be so tired, i am able to do so much more, i use to be so tired all the time, have a 20 year old and a 3 year old and keeping up with them is a lot funner. I do have a question for you all i do great all day, drink my two Protein shakes, and small health meals but in the evening is when i get the munchies, are you all having that problem and how do you deal with it.

Thank you i really enjoyed reading dos and don't. I live so far away from support groups and i have enjoyed this sight. Looking forward to your posts
