Thank you all for the compliments.

How much weight total have you lost in 3 months?

I've lost 80lbs in 3 months.

I'm loving this weight loss so much I'm scared it's going to stop. I just can't believe I'm succeeding I've struggled with weight my whole life (30yrs) I had not lose weight since march 26 today I got on the scale and I lose 6lbs more woohoo

The first one was my weight before surgery and the second one was me two weeks ago.

Garlic Lime Marinated Pork Chops with Garlic Sweet Potato Mash

Can you please give me the recipe to the garlic sweet potato mash? Sounds so good.

OMG mangu!! Now I want! lol I had queso frito the other day and it went down fine. I don't eat pork but I'm curious if anyone has had any bad experiences with pernil?

I had pork with nopales in salsa a little queso fresco on top with some frijoles boludos it was delicious and went down just fine.

Tilt your neck/head back open your mouth slowly and close it slowly you could feel the workout on your neck do 5 reps of 10 like 3 times a day. I'm 30yrs old my insanity trainer told me to do that. I could feel it.

Great job!! Are you working out? What does your diet consist of?

At two months I had a glass of red wine I felt buzzed but nothing major and did not feel sick.

I had some wine after 4 weeks. Nowadays, I enjoy an occasional cocktail made with vodka and Isopure Zero Carb. 20g of Protein in one drink.

That sounds good. How far out are you?

I never liked spicy food prior to surgery. After surgery I craved it I wanted everything spicy with lemon and I never liked lemon either. I asked my doctor if it was ok my 2 week check up. He said yes it was fine to eat spicy food. I still find out weird that I love spicy food.

I'm Hispanic, Mexican and yes I still cook with the same sazon as before no problems here. I've had luck with my sleeve nothing bothers it. Except chicken the first 6 weeks was to heavy now I could eat it just fine.

I'll be 3 months post op in a few days. I could eat basically anything of course I stay away from carbs, sweets, coke stuff like that by choice. I could eat any vegetable. I went to cheddars someone ordered crescents and I took a little piece just to taste it and it settled fine with my stomach I was content with that small taste. I did have a slip and had like 6-8 tortilla chips with salsa at a restaurant, I'm not doing that again. I'm determined to lose weight and I know I have to put my part. I feel I'm eating more now I could eat half a cup (sometimes a cup) of food already and that scares me. I stick to veggies, shrimp, fish,chicken, quinoa, eggs and oatmeal and of course my 60 ounces of Water and 60 grams of Protein (syntrax) which I enjoy my protein now. I try to eat 3 times a day but usually I have two meals for sure now Snacks. I'm starting to feel hungry not too often but all of sudden my stomach is hungry. I'm just afraid to stretch my stomach with the amount I'm eating or go back to my old ways I'm loving this weight loss. I start insanity classes tomorrow so I know that's going to help me more. So how is everyone doing at this point what are y'all eating? Is this ok the amount I'm eating? Do any of you want to have a snack sometimes if so what do y'all eat?

I will be 3 months on the 21st and I'm starting insanity classes tomorrow. I'm excited and nervous.

Homemade shrimp stir fry with quinoa. It was pretty good. I ate a little less then half of that.

The only people that know I am getting this is my son and husband. I've discussed having the surgery with a close friend but she doesn't even know I'm getting sleeved on April 11th. I am not telling anyone at work..these people can be so freaking nosey about others personal lives. I just took PTO for 8 days and leaving it at that...when they start asking "duh, how you losing the weight" I plan on saying I'm on medifast & leave a couple of packets on my desk for the mosey as@&s!

Yup I tell them I'm cutting everything in half staying away from carbs sugar sodas all the bad stuff which is true =)

Right now it's this girl is on fire by Alicia Keys. Looks like a girl, but she's a flame to bright, she can burn your eyes better look the other way you can try but you'll never forget her name …… =) I LOVE all music.

Sometimes when you are losing weight rapidly, you don't have a period regularly, or if your body fat gets very very low. Call. The consult line and ask - you'll rest easier!

Thank you, I'll call tomorrow morning.

Since I've been 12 yrs old I've had a normal period exact every 28 days. I had my sleeve on December 21st. Well Jan and Feb I had my normal regular period on my correct day. I was supposed to start a week ago today and I have not started. I'm starting to stress and worry something is wrong with me. I'm 100% sure I'm not pregnant so I'm not worried about that. I was thinking of giving it into Monday then call my doctors office, his nurse is a guy about my age I would hate explaining my whole period issue to him lol but if I have to I will. Has anyone had this happened to them? I just want to start already I go on vacation next week and it's going to suck being on my period =\

I was able to have Decaf coffee right away. Each doctor is different maybe you call your doctors nurse and ask.

I like your response. On Friday, someone at work asked me flat out if I had WLS and I told the truth - but wished I hadn't because it will be all over the office now and I'm hoping there won't be a lot of comments.

Hopefully there won't be a lot of comments. I don't mind telling people that I know are not going to be judgmental and make dumb comments, that's why I've told only told selected people but at work no one knows and I plan to keep it that way.

My boss is constantly telling me "you are losing so much weight Ive noticed you eating healthier but the weight is just dropping too quick" she tried to trick me she asked me one day as I was leaving "so besides your hernial repair you got the gastric bypass right m" I wanted to yell and say noooo the sleeve but I just corrected her and told her I never said I got wls. Which I did get a hernia repair but she is so critical so I don't care to tell her that I did get the gastric sleeve. She is very annoying.

Wow and how many sizes have u gone down OMG my cardio class I did for the first time Wednesday was intense and so hard

I know exactly what you mean about the clothes size not changing. I was wearing tight clothes before also. My work pants fit me super lose so I need to go buy some this weekend. My tops are a comfy xl when I was a xxl. My jeans are the same size but because I used to wear them really tight before now I feel them loser from the waist and more comfy from my thighs. They look better. I have huge thighs so I knows that's keeping me from a smaller jean size =\ I need to work on my tights.

I am 2 month and a few weeks out!!! Today was my first day 2 hrs!!! I'm planning on doing 2 -3 days a week!!! Down 70 pounds

I'm turned two months on the 21st and I'm 72lbs down. I really want to start doing some cardio.

I am two months out and no food has bothered me either. It kind of scares but in a way I think were lucky that nothing bothers us. I've lost 72lbs my scale has not moved all week. I plan to start Zumba next week to get motivated in working out. I wanted to this week but I have a horrible cold. Good luck!

My first cardio session since surgery and omg that was hard!! Feeling good and motivated!!! Hope everyone is getting there blood going!!!! How many times a week do you exercise.

How far out are you and how manny times do you workout a week? I'm starting Zumba Monday I wanted to start this week but I have a horrible cold.
