Surgery day!
well if i order a "short" (8 oz) non-fat mocha it has 120 calories. im on such low calories a day right now that it doesn't concern me. now what it does have is 21g of carbs. that's my main concern. i can add Protein powder to it to add to its 7g of protein tho. but idk. im thinking literally like once a week. not every day like i used to. tho i just had coffee in my office (keurig) with some non dairy creamer. LOL you must be looking up a grande with full fat milk and whip cream. im talking a short with non fat milk and no whip cream.

I scrambled them actually put a piece of cheese well Quarter piece of cheese salsa and sour cream turkey bacon was delicious just like that pepperoni chips but not as salty. Wait a minute are you telling me you don't drink Isopure out of the bottle you're supposed to add it to something?because that Alpine punch made me so sick I thought I was going to die seriously heart palpitations headache cramps it was crazy

Regret, depression & anxiety
i hear ya. i'm almost 4 weeks post op and i did have a weepy regretful day last week. i have very bad acid reflux and have had gastritis for over 10 years. they fixed a hietal hernia in my surgery but it's still bad. i upped my omeprazole dose to twice a day. bought pepcid and immodium and i'm careful what i combine. it has gotten better and i have good days and bad but mostly good now. hang in there. you are not alone. it is hard. but we can do it.

Sad Day
i am very sorry that you are hurting but take my advice. i became celibate after my last break up (around june) and not only that but i stopped dating altogether so i could concentrate on ME. My needs, my goals etc. It's been the best thing I have ever done (besides my surgery). I have really been able to see myself and what *I* need. I'm not bogged down with drama and BS of a relationship or someone else's needs. Take this time to concentrate on YOU. What do you need? What are your goals? And live your life. We'll give you support. Best of luck.

@retrieverguy how was the sushi? @perforce i don't think it's cuz you can't eat it - i think it's cuz it slows down the weight loss. for example i stalled a little this week and i have eaten some carbs cuz my acid reflux is very bad. but i'm going to stop that today and get my body back into ketosis so the scale can get moving again. Also the NUTs want you to get your protein in first and it's hard to do that if you fill up on carbs ps i've had a weird craving for orange juice lately! i don't know what the heck that is about. it's bad for my sugar and it's bad for my gastritis but i crave it. smh. weird.

Surgery day!
I don't understand this sleeve at all. For days I was miserable. Couldn't eat anything. Thought I was gonna die of starvation. Then today... No problems at all. Able to drink Water well. Made chicken, potato and rice Soup added siracha. Was good. Feel fine. What the hell?. I mean I'm glad but what the heck? I did up my omeprazol dosage to twice a day but that doesn't explain the ability to swallow today?. Maybe I just ate more carefully

Surgery day!
I wish we all lived in the same place and we could meet up a couple times a week that would be great

Surgery day!
i made a mini hamburger. ate it just as fast as i wanted to and the size bites i wanted to.....just cuz i was frustrated and rebellious. then i threw it up. so win win. i'll b ready to get back on the ball tomorrow. and to man up and stop bitching. in the meantime i lived on 3/4 of a turkey lunchable today. a little cup of mandarin oranges and a couple bites of yogurt.

Surgery day!
I'm not a candy person but I have wanted a hamburger and french fries for a while but since I can't eat I guess that Temptation will go by without ruining anything SMH
-
Surgery day!
Thank you guys. I guess I always knew this was going to be a tough road so I'm just going to man up and deal with it. I do have good news. I was able to eat a few pieces of a lunchable. turkey cheese and I even had a half of an Oreo so it's getting there guys. thank you so much for your love and support right back at you. XO XO

Surgery day!
Ok. I'm gonna admit it. I had my first weepy moment tonight. I put two shrimp and like two ounces of angel hair Pasta and all I could get was one fucking shrimp and three bites of angel hair I mean wtf! I'm tired of not being able to eat! It's so fucking annoying. And to top it off I might still throw it up. Not sure. Yet. Here's my stupid ass 20lb loss pic. ????????

Surgery day!
i would take a cup cake and have a bite or two if i was closer to goal lol. im going back to Protein shakes for a little while. it's the easiest thing to count and i don't feel well most of the time so it doesn't bother me not to eat food right now. dinner sat fine. i had cinnamon tea later on last night and that was nice. i always feel icky in the morning but that's due to my inherent stomach issues that i had before surgery. so i chew my dreaded Vitamins and Calcium. then take a pepcid. then wait for things to settle. today im having a Protein shake for Breakfast and i'll have yogurt later cuz i think it actually helps with digestion. in other news im wearing someone i haven't worn in a while so i'll use that as my motivation to continue and not be upset that i don't feel well cuz i really don't care that much truth be told. least i'm losing. i haven't tried veggies. nor do i miss veggies lol. i will start using cauliflower soon to make some of the lowcarb stuff i used to make (fried "rice" and "pizza") but haven't tried it yet. have a great day everyone. xo

Surgery day!
so I put some effort into my dinner tonight this is a concoction I layered the bottom with sour cream and avocado and the meat mixture has white beans ground beef some canned tomatoes garlic salt pepper some cilantro etc. You can see the tiny ass container that I'm using and I'm still barely able to finish it but tonight I made myself finish it because I know I'm not eating enough it was good but I still got the Burpee feeling in my chest which is annoying I'm still probably going to fast I don't know. I feel OK I don't feel like it's going to come back up but I really need to work on getting more in me because I know I won't lose weight if I'm starving

Surgery day!
right now i feel very good. i was really careful with both the amount and pace but i still went a little too fast (burpy feeling) but then i got the burp out and kept going a little. i even put siracha on it. so far so good. how are you doing today pal? did you get pepperoni chips? I *LOVE* pho! I'm so happy to hear you enjoyed it and kept it down. I'm only 10 days post op and I am so over my soft food diet. Nice to know something so comforting is in my future- even if it's just a little bit at a time. Must be hard to eat slowly though. omg. beautiful baby in your profile pic. we are pit bull people here. YES! i love it too. it was yummy. of course i ate the chicken first and only had a few noodles but i put in the bean sprouts and basil and siracha and all the fixins. very good. you only have a few more days of liquid hell. you got this!

Surgery day!
yay! i know right? i was surprised with such little calories how good they were. i can't account for the sodium but only eating five or six of them i don't think i care! glad you enjoyed.
