  1. hey so i have a question to ask or rather something to share..so ofcourse nice wheather mean bbqs and family gathering..so i find it hard to not want the yummy stuff i smell. so i have resorted to chewing , savoring and them spitting it out .. i dont actually swallow the food. im so sorry i know its gross but i wanted to know if thisis bad and if it can harm my sleeve at all ?

      when was your surgery? no you shouldn't do that... bring something you can eat! You'll be better off in the long run

      That's ok actually! It happens differently for all of us. I think it's just your stomach returning to normal. Stay within your stage however.

  4. i was sleeved on the Monday 7th went home on wed. thank goodness no pain been on liquid diet since down 18 pounds as of today. feeling great

      We are similar in initial weight. The day after I returned from the hospital following surgery, I was 242.6 pounds. Ten days later I was 226.4 pounds. That is a weight loss of 16.2 pounds. So it sounds like you are on track.

      one thing my NUT was adamant about is that we are going to trip up once in awhile...but it's only for that moment... not that day, week, month, year... so take it one meal at a time... after the procedure you really won't be craving that junk... I am amazed that my favorite snack is raw almonds now... LOL..."who'd a thunk it" LOL :)

      This is s journey. There will be bumps in the road. The key is to get right back on track. Dont get discouraged or beat yourself up because thats how we give up on ourselves and lose motivation. Remember we are human. We fall down and we get back up. Keep it moving girly. You got this!

  10. ok day 3 of pre op diet ...fell ok but just want this to be over. !
