I am 3 weeks out and I am starting to feel hungry as well. I only can stomach about 4 bites and that's all my sleeve allows, therefor it seems like 1 hour later I am hungry again. I guess it's all about getting used to our new anatomy.

I would check your doctors pre-op diet guidelines. Every doctor is different. I had 2 weeks of liquid only.

Welcome :-)

Wow girl.... You don't look almost normal, you look amazing! Great Job!

I must confess. I am usually sucked in by this show. I consider myself pro-Dr. Oz. He covers some interesting material. Just my opinion :-)

Wow you look great. How much have you lost?

I am taking Bariatric Fusion chewable 2 x per day. They aren't bad and are specifically designed for the sleeve.

Wow you look awesome!

I was told if I take any long trips, or sit for more than 2 hours to get up and walk around every 2 hours to prevent blood clots as you are still in a healing process.

Hey LawDiva... Were you able to get a group together?

I played varsity soccer through HS. We would not even touch a ball for the first month of practice, as it was run, run, jog, sprint, Indian run for 3 hours straight with some stretches sprinkled in.. With that being said I would breath in through my nose and out through my mouth at an even rate.

After reading this thread I discovered something interesting about myself.... Though I have no issue with looking in the mirror and calling myself fat, I just can't bring myself to use that word on someone else. I don't know it just makes me realize I should be nicer to myself.

Wow yo look great. Congratulations on you huge success.

Keep up the good work!

You look Great :-)

I encourage all to try the others too :-)

Great job. You look terrific :-)

I absolutely love reading books about weight loss success. Listed below are some of my favorite's so far. * Jemima J By: Jane Green * The Perfect Fit. By: Louise Kean * Your Big Break By: Johanna Edwards * Good in Bed. By: Jennifer Weiner I would love for others to share some inspirational reading. I will add some others as well.

Most surgeons use 4 incisions for the sleeve procedure. The 1 incision procedure ( Aka spider method) is typically used on those with a shorter torso.
