All the best Alan! You will be so glad you did this the positive results are joyously overwhelming. You are already on your way to a healthier and happier you!

I just put my order in. Thanks for the link. I just started work again and it would be wonderful if I like them then I don't have to worry about my meals! Plus I can pick them up on my way to work!

It does get predictable doesn't it?

I'm so glad to see everyone seems to be doing so well! I just saw my dietician yesterday and she said eat the whole egg. Its a myth about the yolk, even if you have or had cholesterol problems now or in the past. As long as you only have one a day it doesn't just have to be the egg whites. It's a great protein and has lots of vitamins. Plus its the easiest thing to eat after the sleeve in my opinion. So eat on egg lovers! Lol

Thank you for that! Just out of curiosity are your incisions healed?

I was wondering if any of you eat eggs, yolk and all. My dietary list says egg whites but I've been reading of the health benefits of the yolk. I've never had a cholesterol problem, so I'm wondering if its ok to have the whole egg?

All the best of luck!!! You will both be happy you did. The fact your doing it together is also going to motivate the both of you!

I'm actually feeling really well! A little pain in my left side sometimes but that's totally normal. Ill tell you when they say you feel full, there not kidding lol it's like where was this full feeling all along?! I actually drink Muscle Milk Light. You can get the powder or the all ready made. At first I got the powder and was using skim milk in it hoping to get extra protein, it was just not sitting well with my body. I never got sick, but "TMI" it just went right through me. So i now use Water. The shakes themselves are pretty good though. chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, and strawberry banana are all quite good. I tried peach mango and it was just not my thing. I also tried Core Protein Light which they have at a little mini mart down from my house and that was good too.

Thank you! That's kind of what I was expecting... I was reading that because of the weight loss and small amount of calories your body looses all muscle first so it was good to work out to let your body know you need the muscle so it will target burning up the body fat.

Hey! I just got sleeved on Aug 5th. Two weeks post-op today and I go to Dr. Abkin. I absolutely love him! I'm going to try to get to the next support group. All the nurses at JFK were amazing. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Maybe I'll see you at the office lol.

I am 2 weeks post-op today. Had my sleeve done Aug. 5th. I want to know when it's ok to go to the gym and walk the treadmill? I also LOVE riding my bike, when should I be able to get back to that?
