SLEEVEDNBEAUTIFUL

Lol

What foods feel like that. For me it's sliced deli meats and Jello? I have lost 20 since surgery but I don't see mine like i see yours. U look like you have lost much more. Keep it up.

MFP is my fitness pal. It's a app that you can download to help u keep with u daily intake. U can have friends a see what and how they are doing.

You look great and I'm sure you feel amazing. How far are you out? How much have you lost since surgery? You look great and I'm sure you feel amazing. How far are you out? How much have you lost since surgery?

That's great. I don't see my difference yet. I know I will eventually .

Thanks I will look there. But I am going to use some of yours.. Smile

Congrats ... I did just what you did. I had completed all required work ups and was completed within my 3month requirement. However I picked a surgery date 2 months later because I needed to get everything right at home and work. Doing this has allowed me to be off from work for 8wks. Now please believe and understand that I am going completely crazy and ready to run back to work. Lol. Nov 12th or 13Hershey she comes. Look out. Now in your excited state go get prepared. Your date will be here very quickly.

I saw your pics you look amazing. You have lost really well. How much have you lost since surgery. I follow my directions also. I will be 4wks out on Monday. I have sent u a MFP request. See u there.

Ok I got both of u guys. Talk to u there. I have a open food diary u can few and maybe give me some help.

I was told not to go over 25 grams at a time so that's why I haven't done the shots and I don't really like the taste of them either.

Yes I'm chewing really well. When I'm done it's puréed. Lol. I'm also dring 2 shakes a day with 30grams of protien in each.I drink all the Water I'm suppose to. I'm doing really well. Sometimes to good to be true. Are you on MFP if so u can friend me and see my daily food diary.my ID name is sleevedandbeautiful .

I do understand. I am eating 2oz of protien. If I can get in the the veggies I do. I can have 2oz of meat 1oz of veggies 1oz of starch or canned fruit. I haven't don't the fruit. I have only had squash. I find with fish I can digest more than if I eat chicken. I guess because it's softer. For a snack I eat cheese and 3 crackers. Yogurt but I can't really digest Jello to good. What did your doctor say about you advancing yourself? Are you still losing?

You have some great recipes on your page. Where did you get them from. I have looked at a few cook books but nothing like the ones you have. I going to make several of them.

Yes I was also. My surgeon advanced me early. Said I was doing great. Last night I made salmon cakes. Today I had a fake out cheese omelet(one egg with pepper jack cheese). I had Tilapia and chicken but I have not had potatoes of green beans. That sound good. The chiil i did on my purée . I purred Wendy's chilli and it was GREAT.

Lucky and crazy.. Going crazy? What are you eating ?

First let me say a big hello to you. Sleeve should not be a contraindication to HIV. Check with your doctor and pharmacist about using a liquid form of anti vials. Why are you concerned with the two. I work in health care and EVERYDAY surgeries are performed on HIV patients. As you said tat this is it so you need to put your boots on get to researching. Talk to anyone you think can help. I will be waiting on you on the losers bench.

LMAO. I had to read several times. But congrats. And u tell her I said u go girl. Everyone wins.

Ok I was just trying see where I was at. Lol. I am 3wks and 3 days out. I have lost 20 since surgery. I'm able to stay out from work until nov 21 but I think I'm going back early. I'm going crazy.

I haven't had bad thoughts either. I just worry that it wont work. Just early out jitters I guess. I wasnt nervous about any of the this, and haven't had any problems. Just going crazy. Maybe I need to go back to work. Lol

I'm 3 weeks out. I do understand what you guys are talking about. Now I keep going crazy thinking that the sleeve will not work. I had a great surgery with a excellent recovery so I guess that's why I'm going crazy with crazy thoughts.

You will lose. This is your help. Old habits are hard to break when it comes to food comforts. Just stay focused and you will see the pounds and inches melt away. If your hungry from being and seeing everyone upset then you will need to address that issue and find ways to push through that. But I just know you will be just fine. This is a life long challenge for all of us so don't feel alone. Hit me up whenever you need a boost.

Stay prayful. I was denied and it has been a long journey. I had the same issues as you but then three later I had a higher BMI with all the bells and whistles. I switched jobs twice and finally got my new insurance to approve me. Your time well come soon. Don't give up or in.

Don't worry I'm sure your doing fine. Thank you Jesus he went.. Yayyyyy. Keep us posted on your progress.

I remember it was in Jacksonville. Did you get someone to go with you. How are you. I had mine 9/24 and I'm doing good.
