I wish they had an understand button also :/

That is sooo true

Had surgery August 23rd weight day of surgery 285 weight this morning 261 so I'm down 24 lbs Everything seems to be going fine so far :-)

You in my prayers

I hear ppl on here say it gets better as time goes on, I'll pray that happens for you, I'm sure it won't be that much longer.

I'm eating tuna fish salad, crab salad, Tialpia made a lot different ways and from different restaurants, Salmon, shrimp, roast beef from Golden Corral, sliced ham with string cheese, 1 buffalo chicken drumette, a couple bites gumbo with chicken & sausage, boudin just 1 bite though lol the rice swells u. Chili, cooked veggies carrots, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, refried beans, eggs. I had potato soup but won't do that again it filled me up way to fast. I'm not getting that much protein in either, you maybe doing better then I am I'm only getting my protein from food I eat. I drink about 2 1/2 bottles of 16.9 fl OZs water a day that's about it. Oh and I eat 1 oz at breakfast 1 1/2 at lunch and 2 ozs at dinner. I do take my vitamins faithfully. You doing fantastic 26 lbs in a lil over 3 weeks that's Great.

Thanks so much sounds like you doing great too!!! :-)

So happy to hear your doing better :-)

Also how much can you eat at 1 sitting like how many Ozs can your sleeve hold?

Today is 3 weeks since my surgery and I'm down 21 lbs Is there any August 23rd sleevers who's losing about the same as me or better?

SMB I'm right there with everything you just said I can eat and then a few hours later I'm hungry again and I catch my self opening chips for my kids and eating 1 I also say my tummy must be made of steel cause I can eat different things with no problem as long as I chew good. I defnatly dont like feeling hungry all through the day though. :/

I left mine in untill It was completely empty, that was about 5 days. I did not want to feel any pain in my belly and when you take it out it doesn't hurt at all, hope this helps

Good going!!!!

Lol I had to ask my Dr. Same thing and she just laughed and said yep, I think we were excepting the worse so it made it ez

Thanks this helps out a lot, I should have made me some soups before surgery and froze some but I guess it's not to late.

Thanks I think I'll try doing that with red beans. I'm really needing flavor as well

Can anybody tell me what kinds of soups you were eating 11 days out and I start mushy stage in 4 days any suggestions what I can eat?

Good going keep it up!!!

U look wonderful, Keep up the great work!!!

Wow u look amazing!!! Keep up the great work!!!

I Was wondering if bad headaches are normal a couple days out of surgery?

Thanks all you guys this def. encourages me and helps me believe it very well may be smooth sailing from here on out, I'm prayers and thank u all for the prayers they are working!
