  1. Opps. Hit send to quick. I can drink Pretty normal, but not chug. I can take a gulp...one. But I don't often. I take frequent large sips. Im 5 months ok. You will be ok.
  2. Did u do a preop..diet?
  3. I had to according to my dr. I followed my preop.. I was scared of having a fatty liver. I'm glad I did, I lost 19 pounds during that time
  4. There is a nutritionist in office at the office in Hyde park. You can buy a package of visits. I don't use her because she doesn't take insurance, my insurance covers nut visits and I found someone close to where I live in white plains. Do you see the pa's for fills? I like Nicole, she is pretty helpful with nutrition stuff.
  5. When was your surgery? My nutritionist has me at 1000 calories per day.
  6. I used Dr Holover, he's at the same practice. I felt like you too. But it is getting better with the fills.
  7. Just realize I have on the same pants!
  8. I started at 264 and now 219. Surgery was 4-22-13. I am having trouble feeling it and seeing it. I mean my clothes are loose and I see it a little. I cant wait until my brain catches up. i wonder how others see me? Can you tell a difference? Just a little or alot? I am serious, I am not being an attention *****. I dont need you to say "you look great"...Just whether it is noticable I lost weight. I was having trouble with the pictures, I added a side by side, but they are different sizes. My son was making me hold the sword.
  9. Did you loose weight prior to surgery? Best thing to do is track calories, you maybe over eating. Do you have a nut? I think you need to track and review with your nut, that really helps me.
  10. I am not much of a cook so I like egg whites and cheese in the morning. Turkey burgers or hamburger sometimes (w or w/o bun), meatballs, sausage and peppers, small pasta (ditalini) on occasion, chicken tacos w/ pico de gallo and ff kraft cheese, sushi, chinese chicken and brocolli on occasion, 1 slice of plain pizza w/ antipasta salad, chicken parm, salads, soups, chilli, avacados, corn on the cob. I go easy on carbs and high fat foods, prepare foods healthy, go for high protein. I can pretty much eat anything, just smaller portion and cut back on certain things. I even love ice cream and milk shakes, i just count the calories.
