I'm just so happy to get rid of all my 16 clothes!!! I have tons of pants some worth keeping and some k. If ur a tall 16 and need work clothes contact me and I'll ship for free. If anyone need a size 16 formal dress I have 4 dress.

Yay!!! Good bye size 16

I'm looking for a size 16 dress that I can use as an informal wedding dress.

How much has everyone lost? I am at a stall and want/need encouragement.

Hello. I was sleeved on Oct. 2, 2012. I have lost 82 lbs. I have had ups and downs, good & bad days. My partner was sleeved on Dec. 10, 2012. She has lost 32 lbs. It has definitely helped that we have each other to lean on. This is definitely not an easy life style change but together we have really done well.

I got a little off track today because I was feeling great. Praying all is well. Thanks for keeping me on track. Just a few more days of full liquids.< /p>

I advanced way to early and my stomach was not having it. I am 15 days post-op and I tried fish. Really craven it but it didn't stay down. I went right back to the scheduled foods.

Yay! Have a blessed day' date=' you will be in my prayers.[/quote']

Praying for a great surgery day & a speedy recovery!

O wow sorry to hear that I was going to try tuna tonight....... i hope it goes well with that what else have u tried any suggestions????? I'm dying for an ice cold pepsi did u try that?????

No I haven't tried my favorite Diet Pepsi that I would love to have. What does ur dr say about carbonated drinks.

Let me know how the tuna does. I knew the fish was too much. It had breading. I was craving it so I really thought my body needed whatever it provided.

Thank u I will try it this week??? How are u doing???

I'm having a rough time right now. Tried fish last night & we had to pull over on the way home. Ive done really well until that. I guess we just learn our bodies as we go.

Hi guys I was sleeved on Oct 2 so I'm about 11 days post op. I know there were alot of us for the same day. Hope all of my 10/2 buddies and everyone else too are doing good.

I just want to know if anybody has tried rice meaning Chinese food and how did it go????? I'm dying for Chinese food.....

Hello fellow Oct 2nd Sleever. I have tried rice and it went great. Make sure u chew.

Thank you! What kind of Protein shakes do you all use? I've been researching all these different kinds' date=' but would appreciate some tips on what works best post-op.[/quote']

Premeire Protein Shakes. They are the only ones I like. (SAMs or Cosco)

someone posted a nice little shake here and i think its great. i hate whey right now. here is the reciepe

1 cup non fat milk/lactaid in a shaker

1//2 cup plain greek yogart

2 squirst of mio

packs 19.5 grams

Thx for the post. I'm going to try it!

Anyone ever tried Protein Bites? I need Protein & looking for something similar to my calcium chews but protein. Cant eat much right now & cant stomach the protein "whey" shots. Help!

I was on liquids for 6 days but only because they didnt tell me I only needed liquids the day after surgery then I could go to mushies. After one week I was on soft foods and havent had any issues. 6 months seems incredibly long especially since I am eating and digesting protien with out a problem. I will give lettuce a try week 7 and see how it goes!

So after one week you were eating mushy foods? Can you give me an example of what u ate? I was sleeved Oct 2nd & there are so many contradictions on what u can and can't eat.

I miss hanburger and salads! I think I will wait a month or so before I try the hamburger. I progressed too fast on some other protiens and I am lucky I didnt cause damage to my stomach! I think I read that we can't have lettuce til six months out...EAK

What did u eat too soon? Been wondering what to & not to eat yet.

I eat whatever looks good' date=' just much less-- as you plan to do. This works for me cause I have a SLEEVE OF STEEL and can eat anything. Some others are not as lucky. Hopefully you will be lucky like me![/quote']

Does anyone remember what you were eating 1-2 weeks out? Where u still eating broth or were you on soft food, mashed pot , green Beans etc... I'm having a hard time knowing what I can eat. Seems like the drs. list ar all if different. Help. I don't wantbo eat something I'm not supposed to and not loose wight.

I am a October sleever 10/03/12

I was sleeved on Oct 2nd. How r u doing?

I hate the shakes can't find any good ones.

Sleeve date October 19

Have you tried the Premeier Protein chocolate shakes? They are the best tasting ones I have found.

I went to my 1 week post-op appointment today. Dr says everything looks great & I am down 21 lbs.!!!

I agree with this..I normally can make two meals out of it too!

How long post op before the chili? It has meat in it, right?

Amazon....had to buy a 2 pack though.

Is it good?

You'll do great Shawn! I pray you have a short recovery and that you breeze through your weight loss journey :--)

Thank you so much for the prayers & words of encouragement.

That's great! So u must not have much to loose.?

My surgery is Tomorrow! So nervous but soooo ready!

I'm Oct 2 as well. That is a good way to put it new birthday I am going to steal that from u best of luck on our new journey. Are you nervous at all????? :-0

I am nervous! I wish I could sleep until it was surgery time. It's all I think about. What about you? Are you ready? Where r u having ur surgery?

Hello. I'm very excited, my surgery date is Oct. 2nd!!! Anyone else having surgery that day? I refer to this date as my New Birthday!

I have found a Protein Shake that taste great! Premier Protein shakes. They are pre-made and their Protein Bars are great too! Thanks for all the input. I love having this App to go to.

Have finally found a Protein Shake (30 grams) that taste great! Very exited! If you are having a hard time finding a shake you like, try these. I found them at SAMs. They are pre-made and their Protein Bars are great too!

Hello, my surgery date is Oct. 2nd. Im very excited but nervous at the same time. I'm having a hard time with the Baratric Advantage Meal Replacement shakes. I'm using vanilla and adding frozen fruit but it still is terrible. Anyone have a Protein or meal replacement shake that you really like?
