Scott and Eichhorn are the best and you can't forget about Kelly

I'm having a Tummy Tuck Oct 25th any tips and supplies any of you have.

I was sleeved Nov 14 and had that pain up until a week ago. Don't do any lifting for a bit. Mifne has completely gone now. I asked my surgeon and he said it was muscle pain from the surgery.

I wish my goal was only 25grams of Protein. My nut wants me between 70-80grams with 60oz of Fluid. I find it hard to get all that in. I'm getting about 50grams and fluid in max.

I was sleeved November 13th and i feel the exact same way. I actually just ate a spoon full of mash potatoes and was done. Cared nothing for them. I'm not getting in all my Protein either.

Im only on my 16th day postop... my Dr wants 25-30 grams of Protein weeks 3-4
weeks 5-6: 30-40 grams
3-6 months 40-50 grams
6-9 months 50-60 grams... etc.
Crazy how every Dr/Office/Facility is so different... too bad there isn't a universal guideline :-\

I've never been an emotional eater, especially since I lived with the lap band. I never knew what to eat because what I would eat today might not go down tomorrow.
I am allowed to eat regular foods but have no appetite. So I will start to force myself to eat, do I could meet my Protein and liquids which I'm not meeting my 1/4 of my goals. Thank you everyone for your continued support and experiences.

You guys really have the anti-ghrelin effect, I think. The part of your stomach they took out produces the hunger inducing hormone. You will get hunger back, believe me.!
At this point you need to eat by thinking rather than by hunger. This is part of the new world you've entered. The rules have changed. The days of mindless chomping are over. Your body lost it's Iron fist of control. Your brain needs to grab the wheel. Eating is now for living, health, and energy, not for recreation or emotional fulfillment. Those needs you will meet in other more satisfying ways.
You will enjoy eating again. Quantity and quality will rule the choices but happiness in it will return. Your new slim hotness and added energy will more than compensate your temporary loss.

CFA grilled chicken nuggets are the bomb! 17 grams of Protein in four of them! I get the huge party platter, divide in into many 4piece snack size bags and have instant lunch or dinner. Dip in the honey mustard sauce. Yummy!

I was worried about that also. They allowed me to wear plastic retainers in my nose and tongue. On tongue it couldn't have a ball though. I ended up just taking tongue out because I've had for 10years knew it wouldn't close. But I guess docs have different preferences on this topic.
