  1. I am not in a drug counselor community. I am a therapist ..and am working towards a doctorate in psychology ..am currently a mft ...therapist..and have. 6 years of education. ..I have read many scholarly journals..thesis and long-term studies done by doctors and people in the feild of psychology..I'm not saying you shouldnt be doing this..I'm saying that fact is wrong. Lol. Also I will post several studies ..ones I would use in graduate school ..lmao

    Seems like less adverse side effects then sonr prescription drugs.


  2. I was sleeved on the 3rd and am allowed a 1/4 cup three times a day (after its been through the blender). I'm struggling to finish that if its anything but Greek yogurt. Was really excited to try eggs today only to discover I couldn't eat more than two bites. Kind of depressing when food was such a big part of my life before. I know it'll be worth it but its not easy!

    Try eggbeaters taste good easier on tummy.


  3. This surgery is major surgery...you cannot expect to be fully recovered in 2 weeks or 6 for that matter.....You are most likely over doing it and so it drains whatever energy you have left over....which isn't much to begin with...

    You have to remember that this is a life change not a change in 2 weeks......there is no going from 0 to 60 here.......if you are weak your body is talking to you...feeding it is a great idea.......be patient and care for yourself.......2 weeks is not long enough for your body to heal at all.......

    Pace yourself kid this is a life long marathon...... ;)

    Thank you I do feel sometimes like I am completely healed, I have to take a step back and relax.


  4. I had my surgery on Oct 3rd, little over 2 weeks post op. I am back to work 3 days a week, and pretty active in my life.

    I feel fine for the most part during the day. But when I wake up in the morning I am so weak, I feel like every bit of energy is

    sucked out of my body. Its sorta scary how it feels, sometimes it makes me cry because I dont like this feeling.

    So I drink a Protein Shake and drink Water which takes me close to 30 mins to complete and I feel better.

    My question is there anything I can do to prevent this feeling first thing in the morning and does anyone else have this problem.
