Genie bra. Love them

It's wanted to give a YUM review real quick. I'm allergic to nuts and can only stand so much of the chocolate stuff. This bar is a few more carbs than I'd prefer (35) but its great tasting for pumpkin lovers (like me). Has 30g of protein and isn't as huge as other bars. I'm stoked!

I just said a high protein, low carb diet and exercise. It's personal to me. If someone were to prod further, I'd tell them I had surgery, but most don't really care, and are satisfied if I tell them I'm dieting

Great to hear- thanks for posting for him! Tell him to walk walk walk and we love him!

I use fitnesspal as well. I always have my phone on me, so it's easy. My husband is on there and some people from VST, all of them are encouraging and care if I'm not on. They soon ask, where I am and stuff... Those caring people keep me on track with fitnesspal

The loritab will make some people sick- especially if taken on an empty stomach... Which I'm sure u have... You can try drinking something and then taking it or liquid Tylenol

Nope. Eating is miserable. I get kinda depressed because I can't sit and enjoy dinner or whatever. But I've learned to enjoy my family time

I drink some water. Sometimes hot water. It makes me feel full-ish and I go back to sleep... But then I'll have to get up and pee... Can't win em all

We have a different menu, but I still cooked for them. We are eating more nutritious things, like for snack, not ice cream but fruit or yogurt, switched chicken nuggets for homemade grilled chicken and kabobs. Just little changes to get the best food in them that I know how.

I take 2, 2,500 a day, love my hair n nails!

Yes, yes you do. The stomach changes but nose and mouth don't. I found myself wanting a McDonald's double cheeseburger and chic fil a quite frequently. And I want bread. I'd kill four midgets for some bread. But all that said, this is a test of some great will power!

Yep, it's normal.

Woohoo!

Mine was all over. It itched like all get out. I drank benadryl like water. It was odd cause it came on like several days after surgery. Idk what that was all about, but that's how it happened. If it gets rough, call the doc.

My doc called me, but I made it clear I wanted first available. Just communicate with them and they'll do the best they can. People will drop out occasionally and your willingness will fill a void spot

Yep- I was allergic to the steri-strips. It's the adhesive that broke me out.

I was just about to put this up... Sounds yummy don't it

You gotta lead by example. Go out on walks with her, play outside with her, make healthy snack and meals. Shell have no choice but to be fit. And don't worry too much, when she hits puberty she'll thin down a bit

Yep- this surgery took away my best/most consistent friends: food. It's a natural thing I believe. You will pull out of it. It will get better. Lots of love!

I looked at some. I'm not that sensitive if they've been manufactured in a plant with nuts, but I'll keep an eye out on ingredients just to make sure.

I was too, and I wasn't on anything for reflux... But as soon as I got on a mushie/soft diet, I was fine

I'm on a soft diet. Prob is, I'm allergic to nuts so I can't eat a lot of them, I found 3 that I could eat.

Can't drink my protein. It turns my sleeve- makes me barf. Do u think protein bars are ok? I'm gonna ask my NUT tomorrow but I wanted. To see what u guys thought.

Caffeine will bother the stomach sometimes. Tore mine up before surgery. It'd probably kill my little tummy now! But I'd kill three people for a diet dr pepper!

The sleeve is different from bypass, but welcome here just the same! Some weight gain could be from moving. I read that the stress of moving is equivalent to losing a love one (who knew) But I completely agree, go back to basics. Go to the website "5 day pouch test" and try that diet. It takes you for 5 days, 1: clear liquids, 2: full liquids, 3: mushies, 4: soft and 5 regular. That may help getting back on track. Good luck!
