Thank you!!

Thanks!!

Hey guys... Started at 213 and am now 176... Was sleeved on July 2 will be making 2 months in just a few days. I have a before n after pic... The before was taken in the hospital and the after was about 2 weeks ago. Im also putting up some body pics taken over the weeks. I'm am so happy I decided to be sleeved!! 25lbs to go

Thank you I will!!! I found whole grain pizza dough so I will try that first..

Ughhhh I tried to make it but the crust was too soft but it was still edible. My daughter whos 8 says to me Mommy!! This ain't pizza!! This is a PIZZA junk!!! Omg I can't stop laughing ????

I am 7 weeks post op and the diet plan included whole grain bread (1 slice toasted) after 6 weeks post op

So Monday Aug 6th was my first day back at work since getting sleeved on July 2nd. I wake up at 5:30am to make it to work by 8am.. I get home between 5-6pm which means dinner is done by 6-7pm. I am so exhausted that by the time I eat all I want is to lay down and rest and hopefully fall asleep and get my full 7-8 hours of rest. I know we are suppose to stay active for at least 2 hours after eating but how does everyone do this??? I could barely keep my eyes open

Omg same thing with me... Sleeved July 2nd...started at 211 lbs. I just went back to work Monday Aug 6th at 181lbs and somehow within this week I've seemed to gain 2 lbs. I don't get it I speed walk to the train station... Go up and down stairs trying to connect to the other train and for lunch I walk around for 30-60 mins.. My water intake has gone up since I keep a few bottles on my desk and I'm not eating anymore than I was on leave... May turn to liquids if I don't see progress soon

Thanks!! Sorry for the late response for some reason I can't see this group from my iphone. Dr. Roslin is great. Meeting up doesn't sound like a bad idea

I'm sorry can someone tell me what slimming is??? I kinda had the same experience with TILAPIA yesterday, I had to stop eating and literally wait half hr and I can feel it going down the whole time. Was so glad when I drank something to get it down. I thought maybe I didn't chew enough

For dinner tonight I am making whole chicken. Baked in the NuWave oven. I am 2 weeks post op today and will be moved to pureed/soft foods on Wednesday.... My question is is it considered cheating that I ate the liver? I figured since its a mushy consistency it should be fine, plus Im sure its a good source of Iron and protein...and I'm tolerating it pretty well

I love crab!!! Glad to know you found something you love to get you through

Wylers lemonade is pretty good. It's only 5 calories per serving and sugar free. They have a regular and a pink lemonade. I only got to taste it because my 13 year old son drank the whole 2 liters I made in one night which alone says alot because my kids won't drink anything that taste like its diet.

You look great!!

One of the meals I can't wait to have. Crab Salad... Made that a week before my surgery, I can't wait to have it again...

I myself was thinking how much easier it would be to get protein and liquid in If I can use a straw. But I think it's too limit the intake amount because we are suppose to "sip". I for one want to drink out of a straw and have a nice amount of fluid instead of a cheap sip that leaves me wanting more

I downloaded the beep me add. It has a snooze option which u can use to remind you about the same task and whatever interval you wish. It also has a nag option too. I haven't played around with it much but looks like it could be quite useful

There's an app called beep me. According to the description you can set it up for multiple alerts. They have a free one and one for 1.99

I've been looking for the same thing. All I've done is set reminders

Thanks guys

Got sleeved Monday 7/2 went in at 211.50. When I got home on 7/4 I weigh 208 lbs. Today went to Kmart with hubby bought a scale, came home opened that bad boy up and it said 200lbs even!! 8lbs in 3 days. Monday I'm going to the gym to hit the treadmill. I was feeling a lil down earlier but my mood has definitely lifted!! Good luck everybody!!

I just has this happen this morning and I was sleeved on Monday. I freaked out because of the dishes in my sink! Specifically because I asked that there be none.

Im down!!

Thank you!! Im so glad to have found a group based in NY. Funny but from what I see a lot of us are from the bronx as well.
