I'm in! Sleeved 10/21 hw 250, sw 246-247, day of 236 today 227! Down 23 lbs

Is it just me? I'll pour myself a half cup of broth or two tbls of puree soup and well before I get even half way through it's cold. Very frustrating! Any suggestions?

It is really good...makes it more like a cream soup

Post op Dr visit today. Cleared to drive..yay...cleared for purees..yea.. came straight home, opened up a can of progresso lite beef pot roast soup poured it in my blender added a sciup of plain unjury blended it all together. .. after almost 4 weeks of water and protein shakes it was the best two tbls of food ever!

I know.. it's like I just woke up one morning and BAM! 2-3lbs down every day. Then BAM! it stopped. Lol... I'm due for another BAM! Moment!

Sleeved on 10/21. Hw 250, sw 246 day of surgery 236 t oday 226. I feel like in comparison to some it's coming off kind of slow but on the other hand I haven't been down in the 220's for YEARS! also I could be walking more. I haven't had any problems getting in protein or water and although I didn't have much pain (unless I was trying to get up) lol... I'm still pretty sore, mostly where the "indented" incision is. All in all it was 100 times easier than I thought it would be.

It just soaks in after a couple of minutes

Ok so you want to buy only virgin cold prosessed coconut oil. It does not smell or raste anything like "coconut". It has a sort of ntty scent to it, pleasant. Tou can uae it instead of you $75 night cream... add a spoonful to your smoothie or just about anything. Use caution when cooking not to heat over 350ºf. Best place to get it is a giant tub at Costco for about $20

I didn't read through every post but I think y'all will like this www.greensmoothygirl.com

Are you worried about getting in all of your protein and water? Can't exactly sip sip sip at work!

I was also sleeved on Monday. I wanted to go back to work after a week but my surgeon made me promise to take two weeks off. Today is day 6 and while I could probably handle it, I'm grateful for another week (I'm a hair stylist). If for no other reason than just to have the time off for myself.

You look incredible!

I'm in Chico too. 5 days post op. .. no worries, we have the best in the country you will do great!

I have had people tell me in BOLD not to weigh so often. Well my two cents is to do what works for you. Just as we all lose at different rates our methods of getting there are different as well. What works for you may make me crazy and vise-versa. I think some people on this forum should remember that we're here for support and advice. .. not orders. Goog luck

Exacly what I'm talking about. Lol

Is it just me or does anyone else post something and get off the mark responces? It's like people are only reading part of the post. Actually, it's kinda like talking to my kids...frustrating!

Fifth day and the scale finally mooved! Down 3# this morning amd just for fun I weighed again just now and down 1/2 lb more! Yipee.. its working

Fyi... I am only drinking maybe 2 oz of broth so I don't think "backing off" is gonna help me much. I appreciate the responses but I don't appreciate feeling attacked for feeling frustrated. Especially since I have had no problem with getting in all fluids and protein

Here's a novel idea.. instead of lying why not just tell them it's none of their damn business!
