I've seen those I've been thinking of giving it a try

I walked to the OR super nervous and scared, I was sleeved nov 19 and have lost 54 pounds, you won't feel anything , the only thing you'll feel it's probably the IV

Everytime I take my vitamins I get sick so I have few weeks without taking them , on weds I have an appointment with my doctor hopefully they can help me because They will also check my levels :/ and ugh I'm just frustrated. I've notice a lot of hair it's coming out when I brush my hair I'll be 3 months out on the 19th

yes I usually crave salt and crunchy too ughh the struggle

yea I crave things but when I get whatever I wanted I have to force myself to eat it :/

I can drink drink all day because I get super thirsty just not hungry , hopefully it stays like that so I can lose weight faster

I'm two months post op 42 pounds down and lately I don't have an appetite ughh i have to force myself to eat

Update I lost another pound today so that's 35 pounds , and I don't work out I want to but my baby it's only 1 and I'm always home with him

I was sleeved 11/19 so far only lost 34 pounds I'm on regular food since December 23rd

I'm 6 weeks out I eat crackers, bread, no pasta it doesn't sit well in my stomach I had some rice it was ok

Do you guys do hoookahh after surgery ? I can buy Tobaccooo free flavor!!

they would of find out during surgery right? But it only hurts when im walking or standing or if I stretch it around the waist I can't explain it I called the doctor I'm waiting for him to call me I called I'm waiting for a call back hopefully it's nothing yea I called hopefully it's nothing but if he tells me to go to the hospital in going to go

4 weeks post op and have pain on my right side around my waist it hurts when I'm standing or when I'm bending down I'm so mad idk what's wrong

I need recipes, it's like my brain shut down.My recipe? Go to the freezer section of the store and get Green Giant or other brand of frozen vegetables. Put them in your freezer. Pull them out and nuke them, following the directions on the package. Another of my favorite recipes? If you are fortunate enough to have a Lee's Famous chicken nearby, go through the drive through and buy green beans. Add a tablespoon or two to your Protein. Added: you can also get prepared vegetables at Boston Market, and even some grocery stores. I have some vegetables in my freezer not a lot because I'm the only one that eats vegetables my hubby doesn't, and my 1 year old only like broccoli haha, but I will try to incorporate more vegetables to my diet

I sorta feel your pain. I felt the same way but I gotta tell you, I ate a li'l bit of rice, after a half fork full I was so grossed out. The feeling it left in my stomach…I don't know why but, that's what it did. It may be different for you, but for me, for some odd reason, the smells of foods and nauseousness has all come back. I'm to a point I don't mind it except that I stop eating and can't get full because of it. Still biding my time like the rest (4weeks out). that's exactly what I'm afraid of, that's why I haven't tried rice because I don't want to feel bad the other day I had fried plantains well only two, and threw up

On several occasions you've mentioned being Dominican and eating rice and beans. I'm Mexican and we also eat rice and beans. Big deal. When you did your pre-surgical research, were you not told rice was going to be a no no? Is eating rice REALLY more important than losing weight and getting healthy? I loved rice -- any kind of rice. Now I don't, no big deal. I'm over it. It makes me feel horrible and I no longer want it. So instead, I eat rice and beans...without the rice. Bring thin is a much bigger deal. I promise. yes I know Mexicans love beans and rice, and I wasn't told I couldn't eat rice, but several people tell me they didn't have rice until they were 6 months post op and they couldn't tolerate rice for some reason, rice it's not more important than losing weight but if I can have some in moderation I would be happy

I'm willing to try quinoa I just thought it was going to be the same as rice people say they can't tolerate neither , but I actually bought some quinoa

I've tried cauliflower rice it's just not the same but I'll try it again

I'm almost 4 weeks out , I'm on puree next week I'll be on regular food

Today I'm feeling really depressed, I'm so tired of mashed potatoes idk what to eat anymore with my protein (eggs,meat, fish) I miss my rice and beans so much I know k can beans, but I'm dominican we eat rice everyday and not being able to eat it makes me so mad 3 weeks and half post op

I'm 26 had surgery 11/19

I've been stuck in the same weight for the past week it's driving me nuts, every time I weight myself I'm either 261 or 263 I was sleeved 11/19 see today I have my monthly friend but it has been the same before I got it, I've lost 27 and 17 of those since surgery but come on I'm getting tired of not seeing the number go down I'm just getting so mad I feel like I did this surgery and it's not working

I miss Diet Pepsi too I'm 10 days out maybe when I'm a month out I'll buy one and make it flat

thankfully !! I hope I'm one of those too once I start trying different things!! Hahaha

I created a sort of new normal. I eat a most of the things I used to eat pre-op, but many things I don't eat. High on the list of things I no longer eat or very rarely eat are highly processed carbs like breads, white rice, and refined sugars. I didn't even have brown rice until I was at least 6 mths out. Some will eat the pizza toppings and leave the bread. I think I've had pizza maybe twice since I was sleeved 14mths ago. It fills me up too fast with not enough of a Protein payout to make it worth while. They can also end up being slider foods. Foods to can eat easily but also overeat easily or lead to bad eating habits that cause you to gain or impede your losing. oh no I def want to eat brown rice instead of white after I'm able to eat it, and pizza well it would be like once in a while like on a weekend but did you feel sick when you first tried rice? Or Pasta?
