      The major focus is getting your water and protein goals in. Everyone heals differently. Take short walks and rest in between. You have probably heard all of this before. Unfortunately, we just have to work with our bodies as they recover!

  7. Hi Everyone, I had surgery on April 20th and only had limited access to this website so I haven't really been following everybody. But today is my first day back at work and access to this website. I miss all the support. My surgery was a sucess no problems what so ever. Just wanted to check in.

  8. One year out and I'm officially down 125lbs! :)

  9. I'm in Phase II of Gastric Sleeve diet, does anyone know if I can eat beer cheese soup?

      You probably can, however than might be a little heavy (not sure how far out you are from surgery). Proceed with caution!

  12. It has rained here in Georgia for a whole week - pouring, flooding, wet wet wet. I am feeling a bit depressed with no energy. Though I am not really physically hungry I am thinking obsessively about food and wish i could just pig-out on some fried chicken. Food tastes different to me now and sometimes I actually forget that I had this surgery until I really start to eat my now uninteresting diet. Just feeling sorry for myself a bit today and wanting to hear from others. This too shall pass I am sure.

      Hang in there! It will pass and you will feel better without the fried chicken! Lol.

  14. omfg....I ate less and exercised...and now I'm THIN...did you read your FUCKING plan?

  15. I bought a pair of pants with a size that starts in a '1' for the first time in more than a decade!

  16. When all else fails, there's always delusion.

  17. Sleeves don't stretch.

      This has been a mystery to me. I have looked up on various sites that say it can stretch but not that much and others that say if you eat too much it will over time. So I am confused. While I hope you are right, how do you actually know?

      Great! Your "name" reminds me of the humorist Ogden Nash who wrote that husbands tell their wives when they have on too much lipstick and help them with their girdles when their hipstick!
