    shrinkingturtle got a reaction from Sleeved&Hopeful in How Will I Know When Im Full?   
    WOW that is alot of food for 12 days out. I know all surgeons are different but my sleeve is 4 oz. capacity period. I measure out my food and when gone I am done. However, there are some food items that I can't eat a full 4 oz. so with those foods when I hicup I am full. I know some people have said they are the same as me a hicup or a burp. Everyone is different and you have to take it slow and easy until you figure out how you can tell when you are full. I would also check on the amount you are suppose to be eating right now because 1 cup is a lot of food.

    shrinkingturtle got a reaction from Delta..Make it Happen in Stall Or Starvation?   
    From the start I was told to follow the 70/30 rule. 70% protein 30% carb. With my protein intake between 90-100 grams. So on a perfect day I am 100 grams or more protein and under 30 grams carbs. I am 7 weeks out and have lost steady and am now down 36 pounds with 30-60 minutes of exercise a day. I would low the carbs.

    All I can say is to ask you this question- If you asking someone to cut you open, remove the majority of you stomach and go through the pain, time and expense to have this surgery is not enough motivation for you to do as you are told by your Dr. then you will not be very successful with your weight loss.
    You need to realize you have done something voluntarily to your body that has changed you life forever. You do not have a choice, do it or hurt yourself. Wake up, buy in and enjoy the ride.

    I also heard of taking fat free whipped cream cheese and adding your favorite syrup and it is like cheese cake, or a cream pie. etc....
