  1. Thank you everyone. I appreciate it
  2. The tuna and chicken I sometimes put light mayo and mustard in but not all the time. Sometimes I just eat it from the can. The tilapia I bake in the oven with some lemon pepper and a slice of lemon.
  3. I eat tuna, Tyson 98%fat free chicken in a can, tilapia, eggs, chili, cheese and veggies. I stay away from dairy and I keep my carbs below 25 a day. I eat turkey on occasion too. It just depends on the day and what I have.
  4. Not sure about the staples but im 6 weeks post op too and every time I eat chicken, I feel the same way you do and I'm not suffering a leak. So maybe that will help you sleep a little better. Some peoples sleeves just can't tolerate chicken this early out. If you chewed well, it's probably just a tolerance matter. Don't sweat it unless you are having excruciating stomach pain, fever etc.
  5. It will happen girl. Just keep the faith. My kids are 21, 15, 13, 11, 2 and 1. My younger two are 19 months apart and very much like twins. It gets exhausting but I wouldnt trade it for anything in the world. They keep me young. Ill be praying for you.
  6. Thank you. I appreciate it. It amazes me too. Im just thrilled it is actually working.
  7. Thank you Lisa. I appreciate it. Im sure you will as well. Good luck to you.
  8. Congrats. I have PCOS and was told that I would never have children. I have 6 children. Keep the faith girl. I believe God will bless you two fold.
  9. Thank you Ooffa. I appreciate it.
  10. Thank you. I do 30 minutes of cardio a day. I usually walk/run on the treadmill or mix it up between the treadmill and the elliptical and then I do about 20 to 30 minutes of strength training a day as well. I do this 5 days a week. I should probably be doing more but I have 6 kids and just cant invest any more time at the gym.
  11. Thank you. Im really trying hard. This has been such an emotional 6 weeks. LOL 98lbs to go til goal and I WILL succeed.
  12. The picture on the left is me the night before surgery. I was sleeved on 4/2/12. The picture on the right is me tonight. I will be 6 weeks post op tomorrow. I am proud of myself so far. I am working hard and it is paying off.
  13. Hahahahah all very good suggestions and something different than sip, sip, sip, walk, walk, walk. Grrrrr lol
  14. Glad I am not the only one
  15. Is anyone else tired of hearing the words sip and walk? Maybe it's just me but those two words irritate the hell out of me now.
  16. Try freezing your protein shake. Maybe if you eat it like ice cream, it will go down smoother.
  17. Congrats. That's awesome. I was sleeved 4/2 and I'm down between 26-28lbs depending on the day. Lol
  18. Glad that I am not alone. This is such a slow process.
  19. As anyone measured themselves and see that they are losing inches but the scale keeps going up? I don't want to hear throw away the scale because that's just not going to happen. I just want to know if this is a reality to anyone else.
