3 months out... If you have to have your taste of corned beef & cabbage today .... Please take baby bites!!! You'll enjoy it more! Have a Happy St. Patrick's Day Everyone!!!

I'm trying to find a "time to drink your water" app that will remind me to drink now!! Anyone know of any? 2 qts of Water is a lot to get down!!

I've lost nothing in 4 weeks... I think my problem is not drinking 64 fl ozs of Water, making sure I have 60-70 grams of Protein and also counting my calories. I'm basically not eating or drinking much so I think my body is just getting used to the way I eat. I've read my post op diet package and there is nothing on there about how many calories per day... Can someone tell me please? Had surgery dec 9th lost 48 lbs

Did you have any stalls? My surgery was dec 9th and I'm almost hitting a lose go 50 lbs also and also dropped 2 sizes... But in the last 3 weeks only lost 3 1/2 lbs... By the way you look great!!

March 9 will be 3 months since sleeved, total weight lose 48 lbs... Starting weight 246, day of surgery 230... My problem is the past 3 weeks I've lost 2 1/2 lbs... Not sure what I'm doing wrong I'm doing the shakes , having the right foods, the only thing I'm not doing is exercising since freezing and tons of snow ( excuse) would that be why I am stalling?

Ohhh I would love to find that cilantro recipe !!!

Just put together a nice salad.. Cubed avacodo, can of black Beans, cubed tomatoes, sliced olives, jalapeño, low fat cheddar cheese, lemon juice and a dollop of fat free sour cream!! (10 weeks pre-op)

Yes...love your ideas! I also tried a black bean bocca burger.. That also did not go down well:(

9 weeks out ....just tried morning star sausage and it's a rock just sitting there anyone try them and have troubles?

Got the chicken mango avacodo recipe? Sounds delicious

Dec9th surgery... Down 43 lbs.... But each time I eat something my stomach makes such loud noises with rumbling longggg wondering if it's saying thanks for the food! But it's very loud anyone having same sounds?

My mother-in -law came to visit and decided to clean my closets ... We ended up with 4 green garbage bags full...got rid of all size 20 items, next is 18..baggy on me!! HW 243 SW 230 CW 207 surgery date dec 9th

How much weight are you losing on average a week? Just curious. I had my surgery on 12/16. I've lost 30 pounds since surgery (50 since the pre op diet). So I'm averaging around 6 pounds a week. Feels like it's coming off so slowly.
