Have you tried www.myfitnesspal.com to help you track food intake & exercise? It works great!

Way to go!!!

I would up the exercise... I walk, walk, walk... I find any excuse to get out of my chair. I'm 10 & 1/2 months out. Protein is the first thing I eat, then maybe a bite of veggies & fruit. I also use the myfitnesspal.com to track EVERYTHING I eat. You have to be honest with yourself, for the sleeve to work. If I feel I'm eating too much, I have a protein shake for a meal or one of my snacks! Good luck...

LOL!!! I also have wings, saggy boobs & saggy ass syndrome...

LOL!!!

I have had to learn to put my fork down between bites & I cut my food up into smaller bites...

Have you tried broth? or protein powder mixed in blender with ice & lactose free milk or water?

Walking will be the best thing for your after surgery gas... WALK, WALK, WALK!!! Good luck to all!

You can add some sugar free pudding mix to the shakes to add different flavor to the protein shakes. Only a little at a time though, as it will make it too thick, if you add to much. Gives you a variety... Always put in the blender with ice, it helps big time & mixes the protein better.Good luck P.S. I use lactose free milk now...

I eat bread occasionally, but it's toasted whole wheat or multi-grain... Fried foods are out! I don't miss that at all. The thought of fried foods makes me nauseous @ 10 months out & I'm happy about that! I don't want to go back to my old ways! Good luck.

I usually don't chime in on affairs of the heart, but years ago a wise man told me to "Do what makes ME happy". I was married to a drinking, cheating man...we separated & I almost went back with him. I stopped & thought about me for once! I did NOT go back with him. I thank GOD every day for those words of advice! We divorced, I married another & have been happy ever since! My ex remarried & continued to cheat on his new wife. He is divorced again & I'm still married (32 years now)! I truly hope you find happiness... Just remember to think about yourself first.

LOL!!! I actually have a bony butt now!!! My husband calls me sticks...

To make cleaning the crock pot easier, I spray it with Pam before adding food!

I make a turkey meatloaf too... Delicious!
