<p>I try to prepare things that are easily deconstructed for myself. I have two young kids, so everything is pretty kid friendly as well. This week's menu (I'm almost 8 weeks out):</p> <p> </p> <p>Mon: French dip sandwiches, cut up veggies and new potatoes. I had two slices of deli roast beef rolled up with two thin slices of provolone and dipped them in a little of the au jus</p> <p> </p> <p>Tue: Pasta with marinara and meatballs. I'll have a few of the meatballs in the sauce</p> <p> </p> <p>Wed: Shoyu (basically a sweet soy marinade) chicken with stir fry veggies and rice. I'll have a couple ounces of chicken and a few bites of the veggies</p> <p> </p> <p>Last week I made an enchilada bake with no tortillas (chicken, Beans, sauce, green onions, spinach, cheese). The kids had blue corn chips and ate their like nachos, where I just topped mine with a little greek yogurt. </p> <p> </p> <p>I hope that is helpful!</p>

I'm here in San Diego and was sleeved on 1/31/14. My surgeon was Dr Zorn with Pacific Bariatric. He's awesome and really encouraging. My highest weight was 251 and I'm now stuck at 185 for some reason. It's a little discouraging so I came here t see who else was having the same hiccup with weight loss.

No more sleep apnea? That's awesome! I get sleeved on Friday and can't wait to get rid of my CPAP. How long after did you get tested for sleep apnea?

I started the sleeve journey in October of 2012 completing 24 weeks of classes. My surgery has finally been scheduled for December 20th. I'm extremely nervous and eating a lot of "last meals." I'm happy to have heard about this group. I look forward to reading all of your posts ????
