Yeah the restriction is different. I’ve been eating 1/2 cup of yogurt and then stopping trying to see how I feel like am I full idk? Then I hiccup and I’m like okay I’m sure I’m full. I think it’s good we aren’t feeling it. Means we aren’t filling out stomach up yay! 7-10 days I do liquids. Tomorrow i can have soft foods and I cannot wait I just want an egg! I think with regular food we will feel it. For now I’ll just use measuring cup and only eat that. When you hear gurgling or hiccup stop? Who knows lol I’m glad I did this though.

Thank you Matt! I really hope so, I’m so tired (pun intended) of feeling like this. I want so badly to play longer with my daughter.

In my smoothie I put ice cubes the combat protein and I throw in an Atkins chocolate shake for the liquid. I think that's 40 g of protein

I drink combat milk chocolate. I don't feel it's gritty at all.

branlee90 I don't think I've heard of a sleeve patient having vitamin deficiencies, but then again, that persistent diarrhea is more than likely the cause of that. Hope everything gets sorted out!

You all look so amazing and have been incredibly inspiring along my journey. Here are a couple of my pics 8 months post-op and 108 pounds down. SW: 304 CW: 196

Thank you for the wonderful compliment. However, I have plenty of loose skin. My arms are quite jiggly, my tummy has a bunch of loose skin. I also have a really droopy thing I sit on. But you know what? I'm going to be sixty one in September and even though I am not really happy about the gravity issues I am extremely happy about my overall health, energy and future health. I am also extremely happy about my ability to care for my wife who is seven years older than me and in extremely poor health. But thank you for the wonderful compliment I appreciate it so much.
