Today is my 8th week since my surgery. Two months. I've lost 32 lbs. Although I am so happy with the weight loss, I expected to be a bit further. How is everyone else doing? How many cals, and how much are u working out? To all of you around the two month mark, congrats!! We have survived so far. for those further ahead, what where your stats at this stage? I started at 262 lbs, currently 229 lbs. Eating 600 cal a day. Walking 20 min a day.

Childbirth. Definitely. There was no pain with the Gastric Sleeve Surgery. I was uncomfortable after surgery, sometimes very uncomfortable. But it wasn't painful.

I see your point and good intentions. Don't get upset. Like someone else here said, if you see some thread you think is wrong, just roll your eyes and pass on it. At the end neither the poster or you will feel good about a comment that expresses dissaproval which such conviction. Hopefully all of us that have cheated at some point will not suffer for it long term for it. Right? Sending good wishes your way

Well said!!

I am 7 weeks out and I have never gotten sick. Its hard for me to tell my "full" signal, but then I never eat over 4 oz or 1/2 cup. For the first time, I ate like maybe 2/3 of a cup. I didn't feel any different the first few minutes, but quickly I realized that I had eaten too much. My tummy is making these alien-like loud noises, and I am breathing deeply so it all doesn't come right up. At risk of sounding like a child, I am scared of getting sick. I've read is quite awful after gastric sleeve. What can I do to make it feel better!!! I feel yucky!!!!!!

I got chills for 2 weeks, especially at night. It gets better.

Whoa!!! Those chicken mushroom crepes look delicious!!! I also have a crepe left over, I shall try your recipe tomorrow...

Could you guys share your vitamins/meds routines? When is the best tine to take them? When do you eat/drink? With 5 small meals a day and not being able to drink half hour before and after, that means that out of my waking day I can't drink for at least 5 hrs (add time spent eating). I've gotten dehydrated a couple of times so my doc said that for the moment, forget about the no drinking /eating rule. Any of you heard of that?

My doctor never said it was off limits. He said one or two cups a day right after surgery was fine...if it was appetizing to me. I tried having coffee, but it didn't taste/sit good until 4 weeks out.

Discovered this recipe yesterday on line and tried it today. There are crepes made out ricotta cheese and eggs. They look like whole wheat crepes/tortillas!!! And the flavor is delicious. It is just great to find a carb free option to make wraps. I thought I'd share: http://www.cafenilson.com/2009/04/low-carb-almost-sugarless-flourless-crepes/

You should be grateful. I was at a stall for 4 weeks.
