Your all so true, I was sleeved 7/31 down 60lbs and loving it but I do freak out when the scale go's up a pound but your right your body is still shrinking. I do have a question for anyone and a concern, The Doc says to eat 6 to 8 times a day and but don't graze. What is the difference in grazing and eating 8 times a day??

Hi I went thru the whole program, I believe the meeting with the Doctor is to get referred to the options classes, The reason I got referred is because I had sleep apnea. The options class was a great thing to help you understand everything.

Funny you asked, yesterday I was wondering what was the best thing for Protein and I Googled a site that had the top 11 choices for protein, and here is what it said about Peanut Butter .. 11. Peanut Butter 2 Tablespoons = 8 Grams of Protein Eating peanut butter is perhaps the easiest (and most delicious) way to up the amount of healthy protein in your diet.. You can add peanut butter to so many things (wraps, sandwiches, vegetables etc) but for those of you with little time to prepare healthy meals, simply consuming to spoonfuls of this delicious spread straight from the spoon will give you a whopping 16 ounces of healthy protein for the day.

I know they say no alcohol but I do have glass of red wine every once in a while.

Hey thats great, im loosing in inches also but im like you m diving myself crazy!! I keep saying I am not going to weigh myself today but that darn scale keeps calling me..Thats great about your daughter sounds like she is doing good, you say shes down 60lbs in 4 months and see your 23lbs in less than 1 month.

Hello, Well now that your telling me your down 23lbs that is great for you!! but now im discouraged because im only down 16lbs as of today but im sure it will pick up, as far as a stall are you loosing inches? because everyone is saying you may stall in loss but you loose in inches.

Hello All, Well had my surgery July 30th and all is well so far, surgery weight was 231 and for 14 days im down 13lbs I can also see my pants size is down a tad. I really was hoping for a little more but I guess I need to give it more time. Anyone else looking at the same results or better ?? When does the weight relly start falling off.

Your going to be fine, I was so nervous myself but you know what you will be in there and out of there and wonder if they have even started yet..

well I guess shame on me to, I was told NO coffee but I could take it I had to have some and so far it taste great!!

Cool, And I work for Disney in Anaheim

Some Dr. keep you on liquids longer than others, I moved up to blended on the 8th.

Im in Corona Ca.

That's pretty good looks like were both on the same speed lets keep losing.

Hey Im with you that's what Im doing sticking to the plan im sure it all will kick in soon.

Thank You all, Cant wait to be on the big loosers list.

I guess Im a little excited to show off the new me. Thanks

Yep I had the same thing so I called my Dr. and he said because you havent had anything but liquids there is no waste. it took me about a week when I started to have blended food.
