Super scared.
Wednesday I will be 10 weeks out and I felt like I could eat a house today. I had a yogurt, my protein drink, chili, baked lays Cheetos, do I need to go on... YES... Please don't yell at me, Reese's peanut butter cups, a sip of sprite, 4 oz chicken breast and some salad and water. Did my stomach grow back or something. I don't understand. This is by far the WORST day ever for me. Wtf did I do to myself.

Dehydration?
Can anyone tell me the signs and symptoms of being dehydrated. I'm sure I am bc some days I don't drink any water. It's hard. Due to the hunger hormone being gone I do not think about or want food. It's really hard. I can't even force myself to Do it even though I know I have too. I have a horrible dry mouth over night especially when I wake up its a freaking desert inside my mouth!!

Stalled since April 1... God awful April Fools joke
Hey everybody I was sleeved on March 6 of this year my weight when I went into surgery was 261 pounds my current weight is 238 almost 5 weeks later. When I went to the NUT on April 1 my weight was 239 pounds I am a bit discouraged because the scale has not moved and I am in a bit of a slump. I eat food when I can and I'm sure to get all the protein in first if I am unable to eat all of the protein I always drink my protein so I am never lacking it. You know that weight isn't going to just fall off but I thought that I would be losing a little faster than this. I am just a bit discouraged right now I am not having anything that I am not supposed to be having very low sugar very low carbs I don't know what I am doing wrong.

Hey sleevers. I had surgery on March 6 of this year and coincidently that was the last day I had a cigarette. So far I am learning that food and cigarettes are both very mental and I am extremely thankful for that!!!! At times I do you just want to try one or have a drag but then I think about how far I have come and I do not want to lose my 17 days but I am cigarette free!!!

Any March Sleevers?
Rule of thumb isyou're not supposed to drink 30 minutes before and 30 minutes after a meal to decrease the opportunity for your stomach to make you feel hungry

March 8th sleevers!
I'm not talking about the powder. There's ready made drinks like powerade or Gatorade. They retail for about $6 and is do worth it in my opinion. You get 40g of protein in along with 20oz of liquid.
