    reikiwoman got a reaction from BigUtahMan in 2years post op   
    My story is very similar to yours, but I am 3 yrs out. I fell into the same pattern; not watching what I ate, not getting enough Protein, etc, etc.. Now I don't know how to get control again.

    reikiwoman got a reaction from lisalalani in It's hilarious to eat, now   
    Wow, you guys are doing excellent! I was sleeved on 11/14, and I totally agree with everything you're saying. There are times when I'm eating dinner and I know if I eat one more bite of anything, I'll throw up. Still getting used to how much I can eat. Though some days a little more and some days less.

    Aw Ashley, don't worry about it. I too get discouraged, but your doctor is absolutely right, everyone's body is different. As long as you're seeing minus, don't worry about it. Your body will lose exactly the way it's supposed to - for YOU. Comparisons to other people are nice, but don't gauge what you lose by that. Just do what you're supposed to do and be happy.

    Hi fellow sleevers.............you can't scare me. ha ha ha I know the risk is only like 1%, but I have lost 5 siblings and my mom to massive heart attacks, had open heart surgery myself (4 yrs. ago - no symptoms - found it on a stress test - lost another sister 2 days before my surgery - yep, the big HA), my body constantly produces kidney stones (a kidney disease), so I pass at least a few stones a month, and I had a hip replacement last August. So you know what........bring it on!!!!!!

    reikiwoman got a reaction from MrsM in Pre Op Diet Started Today   
    Hi everyone. I started my two wk Liquid Protein diet this past Wed., but that's all I'm allowed. Well that, and Water. My surgery is the 14th, so I'm not too far away. Those of you who are allowed to have anything other than the liquid Protein are very lucky.
