  13. I was sleeved on Feb 11 also and I haven't lost anything for almost 2 weeks. I haven't been quiet my surgery and people have said they can see my body changing. I keep trying to tell myself that. Also I'll be off my blood pressure drugs in about 3 weeks. That was one if my reason I did the surgery. I figure this is just a bump in the road. We can all get through :-)
  14. Ok finally got to make the ricotta bake tonight and it was AMAZING! Thank you SO much for sharing!!!
  15. I am on birth control and got my period a week after surgery. I was told that your body is going thru so many changes that it can be normal. I had it for a week. If it would have been longer I was going to call my gynecologist.
  16. I'm so making this ASAP! Thank you, you are a life saver!;;
  17. It will get better each day. The first day or two was hard because if the stomach pains but every day it got better.
