  1. Thanks for response. Yes taking B12 and lots of fluids. Have a followup appt in 2 weeks. hope to feel better by then.
  2. I am 5 months post-op. Start at 184 and now 145. Have had very few issues. However now feeling weak and less uhngry then before. At one point I was concerned because I could eat so much. Now full after less food. Has that happened to anyone? Drinking plenty of fluids and 45-60 grams protien most days. I do miss fruits and veggies but cant fit them in. Interestinly I could graze on junk all day. Go figure. Thanks ps- we are having heat wave and not sure if that is reason for weakness?
  3. Dont beat yourself up. Its hard, hard hard to change. Try again tomorrow
  4. I am hungry every 2 hours. I thought I wouldnt be hungry but I am. And candy still looks good. Uggg
  5. I feel better now. the point is we are losing. I could not have done it with the sleeve.
  6. I also had surgery on Feb 11. I was 184. As of last week I was 166, 18 lbs lost. It is slow but it is steady. I think when you dont have as much to lose it takes longer.

    OMG, I am feeling the same way. I am 5 weeks out and feeling miserable today. I want to be able to enjoy food. I also made a scrambled egg. Ate 2 bits and then stomach upset. I am hoping it passes.
  9. Are you kidding? big difference. Keep it up!
  10. I ate Miso Soup all the time. No problem and it is good for you!
  11. I feel the same way, hungry the sooo full then hungry. The hardest thing is not being able to drink. I hate waiting, finding it very difficult.
  12. I wrote this somehere else but here goes. Friendship cottage cheese has 19 grams of protien. fage yougurt has alot of protien. Today I made egg white salad, also shrimp salad. I dont know if you like or want to spend the. money. I grilled 2 shrimp. them i put them in magic bullett. Yum. I wanted to try crabcakes but couldnt find any fresh. I also make tofu patties. They are great and portable. If you want the recepie, let me know. I also boiled and purred blueberries and raspberries and put it in my yogurt,rotiserre chicken are soft and easy to puree.
  13. Just made shrimp salad, also egg white salad. I used a little relish and lite mayo. Very tasty and filling. I also boiled and pureed raspberries and blueberries. I use it with cottage cheese or plain. yogurt. Friendship cottage chees has 19 grams of protien in 4 oz. The fruit is so good and good for you.
  14. I am always hungry too. It stinks. Working on small amounts every 2-3 hours. I can resist now before surgery that was impossible. Its a journey we are on. Of course food still looks and smells good. Food didnt change, we did. I am also surrounded by foodies,uggg

  19. The tofu patties do stick together and even more after they bake. Tonight I tried black bean soup that I pureed. I must say it was good and filling. I also put lots of veggies in it for fiber. For lunch applesauce with cottage cheese. Alos bought canned crabmeat which is very soft--didnt care for that but you all may like it. Hang in there! I find I am hungry every few hours. Not like before surgery but it is hunger. I thought I wouldnt be hungry.
