Hey sleevers, I know its been a while I hv been trying to get myself together with my new stomache,diet, and weight loss. I was sleeved on Dec 4th and doing great, my starting weight was 264, day of surgery 259, today my weight is 225. I feel great eating is going well, things going down easily n stomache sitting well with the foods I hv tried so far. I feel like a soft food diet will be my diet from here on. I realize I dont really care for meat anymore, veggies are great, and I hv only had mashed potatoes and grits as a starch. I need help with this situation, My skin has been terribly itching since my surgery has anyone had this problem??? I convinced myself its from the weight loss can someone help me

I was sleeved on 12/4/12 eggs are ok but seems like I dont enjoy them anymore. I am able to get an egg down ok without a problem though. I have not had yogurt since surgery

Hey sleevers, just dropping in an update. Today is 12/24 and feeling good. During this shopping week I hv been doing lots of walking and realizing my legs dont hurt, my cycle is coming and I dont hv the usual 2wk in advance headache, carried my sleeping 18month old in the house and my chest was not falling out my body. Im just going to say it! THANK YOU LORD N THANK YOU GASTRIC SLEEVE! Im currently at a stand still with the losing,its moving like a lb a day but every pound down is a blessing to my heart. Protein, drinking is going good, and food im still learning but going well also. Everything I hv tried had agreed with me so that is definitely a plus. Today I made a cold cut sandwhich following the ozs thar I should have and was able to eat half before feeling full. I love it! ( 100 calorie thin sliced whole grain bread,hellmans light mayo, 1sliced cheese,1sliced turkey) :-)

Well today starts my soft food diet and im so lost, I hv to see my nutritionist on thurs for help. As far as pain, I hv not had any only discomfort with the larger incision , I never filled my pain pill prescrip.exercise wise I have been moving around and walking, I tried to physically walking around a couple blocks outside n felt too light headed. Went yesterday 12/17 to look at two gyms n I decided on 1, just waiting on the green light from the surgeon:-)
