HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE!

I didn't see the psych post op. I am 7 weeks out and I still like to snack and pick...I don't know if it will ever go away, but I concentrate on drinking sugar free drinks and SF popcycles at night to help with the need to have "something". I eat pumplkin seeds (break them out of the shell), I can't eat too many of them so it doesn't impact my weight loss, but the activity of shelling them helps with hand to mouth fixation... I am suprised more people don't have something to say about the mental eating...I am sure so many of us must be dealing with it in some way.

I'm 5'4", I have always been a little overweight, but I was okay with my curves until they became lumps, bumps and rolls. I do not think I will be cute at a size 6-8, it may be too thin for me. I am setting my initial goal at 165, size 10-12. I will see how I look and feel when I get there. If I think I need to go further, I will adjust my goal...for now, I would be thrilled to get in a size 12!

4 weeks post op, down 20 lbs! ) Yesterday: Breakfast: 1 scrambled egg coffee w/ cream & splenda Snack: A few very well chewed pecans - no the best idea, I don't think I am ready for nuts Lunch: Totilla pizza (Pizza sauce on a torilla shell w/ lowfat cheese and Margerhita Turkey Pepperoni - only 2.5 grams of fat per 14 pep slices, but I could never even eat that many!) I only ate half of this and it had about five slices of the pep on the half. This was great! It felt good to eat pizza and not have any guilt! Snack: 2 sugar free popcycles Dinner: Turkey Chili - with Chobani Yogurt (instead of sour cream) total amount of food consumed was about a 1/2 cup...chewed well and ate very slow Snack: Special K Protein Water

I made this and it was delicious! I actually made it twice...since I am now in the pureed foods stage now, the second time I pureed ham and added it...this is one of my favorites! Thank you for sharing the recipe!

I usually don't finish...but I can have up to 4 oz sipping slowly..I started puree this week, have gone out a few times and ordered Soup, I barely make a dent in the resturant serving!

Just a freindly reminder...its very helpful to add how long post op you are ) Week 2 post-op Breakfast: 1 egg fried in olive oil 1 oz ground beef 1 c. tomato Soup Blended and strained through mesh strainer...protien rich tomoato soup! Lunch: Advantage chocolate protien shake made w/ skim milk 1 tbsp Peanut Butter half banana Blended in blender Dinner: 1/2 c. ricotta 1/4 c. alfredo sauce 1-2 oz ground up chicken (I made this very thin, and it was still delicious!) Snack: Blueberry Greek Yogurt

That is one hell of a list! Thank you!!

Hello, I was converted from band to sleeve on 10/25. I see from time to time people posting what they eat in a day...I find it very helpful. With more of your help, this thread could be dedicated to be specifically for listing a typical day of eating for a sleever. Please add how long post-op you are and what you eat in a typical day for Breakfast, lunch dinner and Snacks. I’ll start… 1 week post op: Breakfast: 6oz Mango Tea 8oz Advantage strawberry Protein shake made with skim milk Snack: 1 sugar free popcycle 6oz Fresh carrot juice w/ Water Lunch: Sugar free Jello 8oz Advantage chocolate Protein Shake made with skim milk Snack: 1 sugar free popcycle Dinner: 6oz chicken broth 12oz fresh apple juice

I'm glad it worked out for you! Not everyone with complications and a horrible recovery would look back on it so positive, but if you are fit and healthy because of it, then it really must be worth going through. Thank you for the feedback!

Hello..new here and scheduled for lapband to sleeve next month. I would like to know if anyone has had any regrets, mostly long term, in converting or in just having the sleeve at all? And if so, can you share the reasons? Thank you

Hello...This is my first posting ever, I am scheduled for lapband to sleeve revision next month. I am finding it curious that so many people mention how it bothers them that people eating near you or you not being able to eat is bothersome. I thought the part of your stomach that engages hunger is removed and that not being able to eat is not as stressful as it is with the band...am I wrong about this?
