Throw 1/3 of a cup of popcorn into a brown paper lunch bag, microwave 2 1/2 minutes. Perfectly popped. No oil or fat.
I haven't tried popcorn yet but I am going to check with my Dr. next week at my 4 wk checkup. I'm craving it too!! Plus I can't watch a movie on the big screen without it. It's just not natural!

At 7weeks you aren't at any real risk of harming yourself. Just be careful how much you have and make sure to include the calories of the olive oil into your calculation. Oils are almost pure fat. I'd recommend going air popped or getting the 100calorie pre measured microwave bags.

I was sleeved on 7/29 with Eschette. Great guy stayed two nights in hospital and back to work on 8/6. Still working on getting fluids and Protein in, but easier everyday. Good luck

Thanks....i feel so much better, and my health conditions are getting better each day, some are no longer health problems..

Thank you...this was the best décision i ever made to have à better chance at a healthy life...no regrets...this was even the right time because im in a mindset to do what it takes to get the work done....

Hi guys. August 10th was three month mark. So here I go with the stats:
When I decided to have surgery my weight was 289
Surgery day 275 down 14 lbs
end of June weight 253 that made 22 pounds in a few weeks
end of July weight was 244 down another 9 lbs
end of August weight 234 down another 10 lbs
September 10 weight was 229 that means I am down another 5 lbs.

Total down from surgery is 46 lbs and total weight loss is 60 lbs.

I am now 5 lbs from my half way goal. YEAH!

I was sleeved on June 7 and eat anything at this point. With that said I haven't eaten any bread, Pasta or rice. I try to stay away from the bad carbs. It doesn't take much to fill me up on occasion I hit a lucky day and can eat a little more. I don't have any trouble getting my liquids in IF I remember to do it!!! My hair is doing okay but I think a little more is coming out.....I hope it doesn't escalate to much and ends quickly! The belching is ridiculous! I am still taking 2 acid reducers a day. Definitely need to colace or Miralax to keep things going. I just ordered Probiotics to see if makes a difference. I need to come up with some more lunch ideas. I still drink a Protein Shake twice a day because I just don't get enough Protein. I need to start eating little bits of protein through the day to give up one of the shakes. I go to the gym at least 2-3 times a week. I have had absolutely no complications and feel very blessed for that. I hope you all are doing well!

Thank you!! 75 more to go!!!

Awesome job Juners!!! I'm down 122 pounds feeling great it hasn't been easy. The gym is my second home. Started at 420 now down to 298 my goal is 220-200. I'm using a great Protein with fat burner and bcaa's and 32 grams of protein per serving 44 with skim milk. I
Using awesome Vitamins. If anyone has any question please feel
Free to ask. Good luck everyone keep the focus and drive!!

When your weight starts with the number one!

Hey! Haven't been on for a while, teacher! Schools consuming my life! I had surgery June 19. I'm down 50lbs! Feel better than ever. Size 20 to 10 and XXL to M/L. Loving life!! Best decision I've ever made. Ignore my laundry!! I am throwing out clothes left and right! One fat pic is of my car accident. Look ridiculous! Lol

I am a lover of Accupuncture for pain control. It has made such a difference in my life. It was my go to before the surgery to help me with the auto-immune conditions. I have not needed it since surgery so I am Blessed! But if I need it that will be where I am headed before the serious meds. Hope it helps!

I was sleeved on July 25th- just started soft food and really super counting calories, Proteins and carbs. Calories about 288, Protein about 47 and carbs 20. I exercise daily at the Y- mostly in the Water due to joint issues, they are great workouts, one is in the deep end, several are for arthritis. Love it a lot. I feel better than I have in yeaars- no hunger headaches, no cravings at all.
I am already thinking ahead and saving my money, every dang dime, for Tummy Tuck, breast reductiion and maybe implants.
