Let's stay in touch! I'm trying to " stick with the winners" people with a positive outlook. Not that people always need to be positive!

Looking forward to going out for an omelet with spinach...I worry more about family get togethers.my in-laws ( who don't know about my surgery) are real food aholics. Hard to explain eating two ounces!

Amazon.com has all sorts of chewables...much more reasonable than regular bariatric websites

I did was shakes..got Mrs shakes pet day...helped a lot

Ive told only close family...too much judgement out there.

I'm two weeks post op too! Lost 31 so far ( 20 pre op). We can do this! I am not feeling hungry at all today...forcing myself to eat some protein..tiny tiny amount...guess I'll just finish up with my protein shots.

I know I'm on a pink cloud right now...but I really think this is the permanent change I needed.I have a therapy dog...we're starting agility training soon so that will help keep me in shape.Working a two year old boxer is great exercise!

Make that " inevitable " ..autocorrect

Thanks! I certainly don't mean to diminish anyone whose gained weight back...just to clarify. God knows I know about gaining Wright. I just don't think it's Avicenna by any means. I'm really focusing on changing my relationship with food and making this a permanent lifestyle change.

Feeling great so far...pureed food is going well and looking forward to chewing. Down 31 lbs..since start of liquids pre op. Only 120 to go! I like the positivity.Some sites have a lot of people sharing failure stories...not good for morale. I hope to stay motivated to keep it off permanently.

Good for you! I'm two weeks post surgery and doing great! I lost 20 lbs on liquids presurgery and another 11 so far. Its really rewarding so far...but hard to switch to just eating untilp full and not worrying about calories. I found great protein shots to drink so I'm not constantly sipping shakes.That's just what works for me. Pureed food is going great...I'm tolerating everything really well.Hope your surgery and recovery goes great.

I agree.after all this...and I'm only two weeks post op...I want to remain committed.
