vanilla shakes good blended with ice and cinnamin, like a milk shake

toler the main thing when you are out of surgery is Water and walk, the more you walk the less gas you will have and the faster you will heal., I went to dr burbee . also your doctor can give you a card that says you has surgery and cant eat a lot and they can give you a child menu or smaller meal.. usually i just tell them i had a operation and if i can have a plate i'' share with hubby and they are fine with it or i have a appatizer instead of meal.. but you can order and just take whats left home.. believe me you don't want to over eat when you have had enough stop.. feel full stop. and do wait till at least a half hour to drink after you eat . the pain isn't worth it.. the first time i overate i felt like i was having a heart attack. it was no fun and believe me one time and you will never do it again. any questions you have i will be glad to answer if i know the answer..
I live on wilmot, between speedway and broadway so we aren't that far away.. i don't do FB sorry

Its been a ykear and a half since my sleeve operation was done,, I have lost almost almost 90 lbs so far.. I can walk without trying to catch my breath,, walk with out the use of a cane.. my knees feel better.. i have more energy.. I have gone from a size 5x to a large size.. yes i have some hanging skin and bat wings. but i feel much better about my self . I still have a lot more to go, and it hasn't been easy. watching what i eat is a battle sometimes, and if i eat to much i feel like i am going to die. but i am so glad i did it and don't regret it for one second..I feel that the date i had the operation is my new birthday ..

i know what you mean. like you i was so worried and like you i had no problems after surgery. why didn't i do this sooner. haha i am so happy and in peace now.

i thought it was just me I look in the mirror and still think i see a fat person. i have lost 80lbs but my eyes and mind doesn't see it. the chothes are smaller so i know i am too but the mind plays games.

Hi beme, isn t like we have been born again.. the best thing i ever did. and like you weight lose has slowed down a lot. but to me a lose is a lose . keep up the good work.

onlybroomgirl Hi i was sleeved in Feb also, and agreed with you. I feel great and love the new me. i am lazy about working out and thank goodness my skin hanging isnt too bad just under my arms some.. stomach a little but like you not as bad as i expected and control panties help. I can eat most things but turned off by red meats. and a lot of food i use to love just doesnt taste as good as it use to .. my taste has changed a lot.. I really try to stick to my diet but sometimes i just need somethink like ice cream so i found just one tsp and im satisfied before i would have had a big bowl with lots of choc surup on.. I am also off a ton of meds. which is the best think for my pocket book and health. I should have done this years ago. only problem is even though people tell me i look good, when i look in the mirrow i still see the old me..I know i am losing my clothes keep getting bigger and i can but smaller ones. but my head still sees fat me.. strange well keep up the good work and take care.

I was only in hosp for overnight..wasnt as bad as i expected.. a little sore and slept on recliner for 2 nights. but never really had to take pain meds.. You wont believe how the weight drops off everyone loses different but so far since feb i went from 350 to 268. 2 things you have to remember and its very important is walk walk walk and drink drink drink . lots of Water and a good trick is to use a shot glass and set a timer for 15 mins and every 15 min drink a shot glass of Water sip slowly it will be hard at first to get all your water in remember your stomack is lots smaller and still swollen from operatiion. any other questions , just ask, anytime I will be glad to help.. and good luck

dont worry about what everyone else is losing everyone is different. just remember a pound lost is a pound lost thats what counts not how many just that its a lose.

everyone is different, i was lucky , not much pain at all, i did have to sleep on recliner for a few days but thats because i sleep on my side and thats the side my stitches were on . best advice is to drink Water and walk as much as you possibly can. you may have some gas pain so walking will help the gas pass. a good trick for getting your fluids in is to set a timer for every 15 mins and drink a shot glass of Water. and sip sip sip slowly. we are all here to help and give tips. this site is great as you will see. just stick with what dr. tells you and you will be fine. good luck and remember this is going to be your new birth day , a new beginning.

i am so glad you are doing well.kappy, each day gets bettter and betterl you are on your way
