  1. Oh my. What a update. Taking a deal that benefits you both seems like the right thing to do. I know you guys will make a decision that is best for or all of you. This has to be a lot to take on right now. Glad everything is working out with you and the cartographer are doing well. I commend the actress for being on a romance hiatus.. That is a very wise thing to do. It will help in the long run. The divorce is coming. Seems surreal. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  2. Not to sure my girls are older.. Especially one that's clingy. Will your husband be able to take some time off? At least for the first 4 days? I healed rapidlyso I was up and around after at least 4 days.
  3. I was look on Amazon ,GNC has them by the bar. But yes I have to consider what works for me although I haven't gained I still would like to get my protein in. Seems like I can implement them in my diet somewhere it couldn't hurt. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App The whole process will be a lot of trial and error in the first year or so. The guidelines from nutritionists and usrgeons are a great start and very important while you are still healing. But you ultimately have to figure out what will work for you long term and how you can live the rest of your life. I think the goal to get more protein in, by whatever means, is a noble one. Even with all the variation in programs and advice, I think one thing we can almost all agree on is that protein is key to long term success! Yes, that is so true. I have to fine a routine and do what's best for me in the end. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  4. Have you already hit your goal weight? My doctors goal, yes.
  5. I am new to this forum. I am 11 days post-op and I had my surgery at a Christian health center. I could tell how huge of a difference it made in giving me the support I desired in starting this journey. I hope to become even more grounded in my faith as I move forward. I am grateful for groups like this!!!Hello, welcome! How are you healing. I too am on a spiritual journey. Strengthening my faith ultimate goal. I created this thread awhile ago when I first started my journey. I love my sleeve it has been my headache and my joy!!! God placed me right where he needed me to be. Are you still on liquids? What's state are you in? I am healing fine. I am just started back working this week, so that has been an adjustment. I am also trying to incorporate more exercise. I feel good physically about every other day, then on the opposite days I'm tired. I am in Indiana and I'm currently on the 8 week Puree phase ( I didn't have a liquid phase like others do). How about you? How far post-op are you? What's been the biggest hurdle for you thus far? Welcome!! Good to hear that you are complication free. Yes, that's happen to me to I was up and down, one minute I was energetic the next I was so tired. That won't change for awhile. I'm doing good, I'm 7 months out. And the biggest hurdle for me avoiding grazing. I've managed to do it on most days but some days I feel like I don't get enough Protein. I'm at a set number and trying to maintain sometimes I'm at the number then I might go under its a bounce between a few pounds. I didn't have a purée diet just the liquid. Also exercise is easier now I just have to eat more calories something I never thought I would say!!
  6. Yea I haven't been under 200 in a long time. It's been a long battle with my weight, I feel like I'm finally winning!

  10. That's great. Keep me posted on your progress. I'm about 7 months out.. It has been great. My doctor gave me a goal which I didn't mind .. It didn't mean much long as I wasn't gaining.
  11. Hello welcome!!! Yes we have all been there. But we have all succeeded .. So will you! It's the most hardest yet rewarding thing I've ever done. You just have to make the right choices and when you do mess up know that's there's always a tomorrow! A new day to get back up and try again. You can do this!! What's you goal weight?
