  2. I went back to work 5 days after surgery. I work 12 hour days. It was too soon, but completely do-able. It takeS several weeks for the exhaustion to subside. And honestly about 3 months to feel back to normal. Nap every chance you get. With that being said, this is undoubtably the BEST decision I have ever made. I am almost 5 months out, lost 77 pounds, and I feel healthier than I ever have. GOOD LUCK :)

  4. Also, UNJURY has an unflavored protien when your ready for food. You can add it to anything and it has no taste at all. I just open a package and sprinkle it on as much as I can. When you get to soft foods it goes great in applesauce. I am 4 months out, and have lost 70 lbs. I have always had very long hair. I had to cut it short 2 weeks ago. But it WILL come back!!!!
  5. Well, as of today I have officially lost ******70lbs*********. I was sleeved May 11. I am so happy I decided to do this. I am off all my medication and can keep up with my 5 year old. If I don't lose anything else, I will still be happy with the results!! I have went from a size 18 to size 10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  6. I make buffalo chicken ones. Use chicken, hot sauce and Laughing Cow light blue cheese. Every one in my house LOVES them.

  9. There were several people that were alone when I was there on May 11. They all did great. Dr. Garcia and staff are wonderful. Very clean hospital. If I had anything negative to say, I wish I had a spanish-english handbook. But they take wonderful care of you!
  10. You look GREAT!!! Also look 20 years younger =)
  11. I had crab today also!! I was able to eat 2 legs. 1 pound was plenty for my husband and I. Yummmmmm!

  13. My daughter just checked on the price and until September, it is $4500.00. That includes the 3 nites at the Marriott.
  14. I was very happy with him also. I was sleeved May 11. I recommend him to everyone.
  15. In the begining my energy level was VERY low. I needed a nap every day. Once you start mushies your energy will increase. Just nap when needed (if possible). I am 2 months post op and my energy is great. Although I do notice if I eat poorly my energy is very low. I also went back to work at 1 week post op. I am a deputy and on the go the entire 12 hours of my shift. Just give it time and keep up the good work!!

  17. I think everyone is different. For me I must eat slow, and that has been hard for me to learn. I am also a NON-PUKER, But I have puked about 5 times, mostly within a 1 week period, and not until at lease 5-6 weeks out. For me its like I fill up a pitcher to full and it just overflows. The first time it came on so quickly I had time to yell to my husband to grab me something and I was unable to move. I don't heave its just like getting rid of the overflow. My advice is eat slow, listen to your tummy. The full feeling is just like before so when it starts feeling full STOP! Because 1 extra bite is all it takes. Good Luck & Don't be afraid of the puke, its going to happen
  18. Use LOTS of ice. It really helped me.
  19. May 11, down 43. But I haven't lost anything in about 10 days Your not a failure, Have you lost inches?? And how much would you have lost if you had not had surgery!
  20. CONGRATULATIONS!!! Good for you, be proud of yourself =)
