Sleeve Experiences - Negative?
I was sick before the sleeve. I was suffering the affects of being over weight. I had tried diets, gyms, programs, liquid diets, all to just gain back more and none ever resolved my high blood pressure, diabetes, sleep apnea, chronic kidney disease... I am completely better after the sleeve. I no longer have any ailments. I was dying. I am alive again. I am so thankful and I'm still in awe.

Cooked Rice
1 lb lean ground beef 1/4 cup chopped onion 1 (1 1/4 ounce) package taco seasoning mix 1 egg, beaten 2 cups cooked rice 4 -6 bell peppers 1 (19 ounce) can diced tomatoes 1 (15 -16 ounce) jar salsa shredded cheddar cheese sour cream Directions: Combine beef, onion, seasoning mix and egg in a large bowl. Add rice and mix well. Cut peppers in half lengthwise; remove seeds and membrane. Spread tomatoes on the bottom of an ovenproof 12 X 9 inch baking dish. The liquid from the tomatoes will reduce during cooking so if (like me) you like lots of sauce, add about a cup of Water. This also helps make the peppers softer. Place peppers, cut side up, on top of the tomatoes. Spoon beef mixture into peppers, mounding as necessary. Top each pepper with salsa. Bake in preheated 375°F oven for 40-45 minutes or until beef is cooked thoroughly and peppers are soft. Cover each pepper with cheese and return to oven, under the broiler, until the cheese melts- less than a minute, so watch carefully! Serve with sour cream and additional salsa

Cooked Rice
Hey Shelley Boy that sounds good, I'm on my way over Hehe I haven't tried rice yet, I've heard it fills our sleeves pretty quickly. The hamburger mixture sounds awesome to me, I love stuffed bell peppers. If you try some rice just go slow and see how you do

Which Way Do I Go? Sleeve Or Bypass
Hi Mitch, I believe the decision is yours but here are a few things that helped me decide to go with the sleeve. - I liked that the sleeve didn't reroute my intestines, I was scared of that... - I didn't want malabsorbtion problems as I was already low in potassium and iron - the sleeve is having great success with relieving HP, sleep apnea, diabetes... I had all and am clear from all meds. I'm sure u will discover the right reasons for you. They are both life changing yes but life saving was what I needed Best of luck

Full Liquids Warmed
Hey Chad!, how are you? Congrats I just heated a few ounces at a time, that way I could keep the rest in the fridge and heat as I go. I actually liked my soups a little warmer than room temp. So not too warm but now I like them hot Play around with the temp to see which feels better in your stomache.
