need2bthin!

Thanks gamer girl. I'm on my phone and the search option is not available

I'm looking for some tasting fish recipes. I love fish but I have never cooked it. I have googled some but they all have quiet a bit of butter in them. So do you guys have a sleeve friendly fish recipe???

What is your daily menu like?? I had my surgery the first if July and I'm just now able to consume 500 calories a day. I also aim for 60g protein and less than 50 carbs.

I think I will. one just eat the topping off instead

Right at 8 weeks ago.

Does anyone have problems eating salads? My dr recommended i try to eat a salad with shredded chicken and cheese on top. Granted everything is shredded and mince. I have noticed when I eat about 3 bites I have this full feeling in my throat.

I am just curious to see what everyone's workout routine is? Please include how long post op you are thanks guys!

I tried the Lenny's Philly chicken salad. I asked that they chop the chicken really fine, and the lettuce and tomatoes are already shredded. It will make several meals an its so flavorful you don't need dressing!

Breakfast is a either a boiled egg or omelet Lunch- tuna salad Dinner- chicken salad with string cheese.

Well I finally started mine and Im so Heavy!!! I better up my iron supplements!

Well this week started my 5th week. I have lost 40lbs!!! I can't believe it!! I'm starting to adventure out from to my soft food stage. But I find things really cause my chest to hurt, has anyone else had this symptom?

I'm 5 weeks post op and I have yet to start my monthly cycle. It's approx 2wks late. I wonder if my body is just in shock from the lack of calories? TIA

I haven't had one since surgery a month ago. I figure it's due to all the stress and weight loss. And no I'm NOT PREGNANT! No way no how

Is it okay to eat peanut butter? I don't care for my nutritionist she's very vague.

Thanks guys! I used the recipe on here an it was marvelous!!! They tasted just like Red Lobster, only better. My tummy is smiling and my sleeve is satisfied

Okay could someone tell me how to make crab legs? I know it should be simple but I've never cooked any fish.

Hi my surgery date was 7/10. I am unable to drink the protein shakes and have even been unable to drink all the water I need. Maybe this is my problem?

I have hit a stall! Yes, I'm grateful for the 25lbs I have lost in less than a month and in no way am I complaining, but could someone tell me how to break the stall and get the scale moving again? I don't eat much still. I'm on liquids/puréed and most days consume less than 400 calories.

I am almost a month post op. Yes, I followed my orders to a "T" but I am still unable to really eat or drink. You can forget protein shakes, I barely get in 20oz of water a day without feeling a very painful crushing sensation under my sternum. I also have tried several soft foods nothing works, even eggs I take 2 bites an have the same discomfort. I'm not sure if this is normal and will it get better. But in this heat I just long a big drink of water, something! But I sip and sip then end up hurting. Someone please give me some advice and let me know when this will become tolerable!

You go girl!!! Please rub some of your fabulousness off on me!!! Your a total inspiration, I hope I have those results

I work in Electrophysiology, and I can tell you first hand A-Fib is very very common. Most people convert to sinus rhythm on their own, if not you can take an anti-arrhythmic drugs. Sometimes we do have to shock but if you develop persistent A-Fib you can have a pulmonary ablation to help to chronic A-fib. You will feel tired, have shortness of breath, and sometimes feel dizzy when your heart is out of rhythm. I would consult a cardiologist/electrophysiologist if it becomes worrisome. Hope all the best to you!

Great!!! I wish you well & I'm so sorry your having to go through this. Best of luck!
