Que bonita!!!

My digestion noises!! Sometimes im so embarrased because of that.

I have some bad news for you ...
The sleeve is not going to keep you out of the Burger King drive through ... or McDonalds ... or Dairy Queen.
I know this is going to come across as harsh, but that is not my intention. I'm just a tell it like it is guy, so, I hope you can see that.
The sleeve is not a magic bullet to keep you from eating bad foods. It is ONLY a tool to help you eat less. I am a year out and I can eat anything, and do, in small portions. It is EXACTLY what my expectations were. The sleeve is not gastric bypass where dumping syndrome occurs with too much sugar. It is a restrictive procedure. The quality of the food is determined by you.
Early out, most people have swelling and sensitivity which gives them the impression their sleeve rejects foods, but this passes with time and the responsibility to make good food choices lies solely on the person. You are most likely a person whose swelling reduces quicker than most. This means you are going to have to transition into the mode of responsible eating a little sooner than most.
Sorry ... honeymoon is over. Time to get to work on making the best food choices for your body.

I can't stop carne asada tacos and avocados !! lol How about you??

Hi Everyone,

Recently I have heard of a couple of people who have backed out from having Weight Loss Surgery with Dr. Aceves. I think to myself what a shame. For the most part they backed out because their “own” families had been giving them such a bad time about doing this.

I consider these family members “Adult Bully’s” they are the worst kind of bully. Your very own family should be there to support and encourage you to make your life better and most of all healthy.

You are going to DIE so much faster from being fat. You have an illness or disease and it is called Obesity. If a Doctor told your family that if you did not have your appendix out you were going to die—they would say go ahead and take it out. If you do not have Weight Loss Surgery, you are going to be in poor health and it could result in your death Please think about what I am saying.

You are an adult and you DO NOT owe them any explanation of what you are doing. Stand up for yourself and your health and be a hero and save your own life. I know it is hard for you to stand up for you—if you can’t then I will stand up for you. You do not need their permission to have weight loss surgery.

You have earned the right to make these kinds of choices for yourself—you are an adult. Most of us have experienced a little of this negative kind of remarks and comments from someone before we have weight loss surgery, but we learned we had to do what is best for us. STOP giving away your power to make good and healthy choice for YOU.

This is NOT about them, this is ALL about you. Take back your power and control—YOU can do this. If you need someone to talk to them and educate them, I am more than happy to talk with them. I find that most of the time people who are these “Adult Bully’s” when it comes to weight loss surgery are misinformed, scared, have all the wrong medical information, and just need a little education. Some are also scared they will lose you if you become skinny and they remain fat. They are being selfish and that is really sad.

I want you to take back your power and put yourself first. It has been years since you have done this. There are so many of us out here who support you and will be there every step of the way with you. So if you are sitting out there and reading these posts and someone has bullied you, this message is directed to you. They want to keep you under their power and control—that is so wrong!! You NO longer need to fear what they think. I am here to help you in any way I can. You can be very successful and healthy and take back your life. Again this is ALL ABOUT YOU AND NO ONE ELSE.

This is my private E-mail—please send me a note and we will start talking. I will call you also if you would like.

Together we will get you through this.
Hugs,
Suzanne

How can you not crave a burger when every other commercial on TV is for a burger place!

Sleeved 4/30 I'm still on liquid diet but i didnt stick with that i've being eating greek yogurt, pudín and today for first time ate a little mash potatoes. Lost 23.

Congratulations Raven!!!

You do not have to eat the calories you burn.

With a whopping 6 pound loss, raven8888 is our biggest loser winner!!! Congratulations,,great job!!!

I'm 9 weeks out and tried it a couple of weeks ago with no probs.

I'm nine weeks post op, and I've had it a few times and no problems.

I am 11 weeks postop and I have had corn for the past 2 weeks. No problems. I don't know what my NUT would say, but I LOVE corn so I couldn't resist since in AZ it is now in season.

My paperwork says after 6 months, so that's what I am doing.

My Doc said to avoid corn for 4-6 months, so that's my plan. Doesn't bother me much anyways, i'm more of a green bean fan myself.

Thanks Mar I will try it. I am on iPad so should be close.
