Hello everyone! Congrats to us all for changing our lives. I was sleeved on July 3rd and on surgery day I weighted 246lbs I now weight 160lbs. I can maybe eat 4 oz. a day but I also workout 3-4 times a week. I'm trying to get more food in but can't seem to do it. I get full really fast. I'm eating slow but still get full fast. I eat my protein first always then some fruit, but always just bites. I hope everything is ok with me, I feel awesome too and look great. Plus, my husband is enjoying the new energy I have. Life's great!

Go for it! Have fun in your fitness. I use to play b-ball for high school and college. Let me tell you, I was very fit playing that sport. So, I say "Go for It!

Ok, I haven't been on here for a while. Last time I stated anything I was losing weight at a normal pace. Well I was sleeved on July 3, 2012 and at that time I weighted 246lbs and now my current weight is 169lbs. I'm loving the new me, this was the best thing I could do for myself. Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Remember Protein first.

I'm in need of these sizes. Please let me know how do I get them and see what u have. Thanks!

Can u eat sugar free cereal with fat free milk

It all sounds so good thanks do much guys.

I experience nausea every other day. This is good to know. peppermint! Wow! I will get some later today to help with that. I usually just don't eat anything else because I feel so sick.

I didn't know that. That's good to know. I'm 8 wks post op. I'm loving my new life and body

No, I was only in pain for two weeks then it went away.

Is there anyone here in cali

Simply.torri, I miss home too! I use to live in Arlington, Va, But now I live in Cali and its hard to find workout partners. I work out with my 14 year old daughter. She's my motivation. Hang on there. You'll find someone. Good luck!

Anybody here in Stockton, CA

Thank you everyone for your input. I think I'm going to go back to liquids for a while.

Thanks! Gastricsleeve4me! I went back to liquids this morning. The day of the surgery I weighted 246lbs. One month and 4 days after being sleeved I now weight 199lbs. I feel I'm loosing weight too fast. So, I guess I'm kinda scared due to throwing up so much. Not really getting food in. Well, liquids are staying in, so I'm good for now.

Gastricsleeve4me, are you eating whatever! I mean are you able to eat something and swallow it without throwing up later. I can't eat anything but an egg.

I'm able to eat a egg, but like meat. No! Can't keep it in. Even a little bit, I throw it up! Help!

I'm sleeved now a month and 3 days. How are any of you eating any food. My doctor andy nut told me to eat some food now, like chicken but I can't seem to eat anything without throwing up.

How did all of you put ur picture on here.

I've lost two bra sizes and my butt is going down too. My husband thinks its ok, but he's an Ace man and I'm thinking if it goes down alot more he might be freckin out.

I haven't! Crystal lite makes a energy flavor packet. We can have that, or propel for energy. We need to drink lots of water, but the great thing is there's alot out there with stuff in it like that, that's still ok for us to drink. Look into crystal lite and plus consult with your doctor. I hope this was helpful, good luck!

I felt the same way, I just took my acid/reflex pills and it went away . Plus, make sure 20-30 minutes after food, drink ur water. Try to get the 64 ounces in. That also helped me. I hope this was helpful, but I'm only sleeved 20 days now.

I got sleeved on july 3rd and we were going camping at Yosemite on the 10th. Good thing my husband didn't reserve it because I felt like crap! The small cuts on ur belly hurt. Your insides Hurt! You sweat big time. Going to the bathroom is hard. Just to sit and then stand takes alot of energy. Walk will be ur big challenge. Plus, it on clear liquids for about a week. That's challenging. Just really think about it. Good luck!

Congrats! Now watch it all melt away!

Congrats! Now watch it all melt away!

Choosing the sleeve was best for me because I have a bad back and this allowed me to still be able to take my meds for my bad back. Also, I don't have diabetes, or any other serious health issues other than my BMI being 30. Well now 26. The recovery seems quicker. My friend had the gastric bypass and it took them six weeks to get back to normal and I only took me two weeks. I don't know.
