Before my gastric sleeve, I had only a gas pedal. After surgery, I have a gas pedal and a brake.

I really, really like the gas pedal & brake analogy. I think I will use that analogy in future discussions!

@lucy4462, try shaking things up in some way. Change your exercise, your food choices, or your eating schedule. Our bodies get stuck in ruts, so introducing change can help.

Apparently, cheese is a no-no for me. :-(

Week 4 Post-Op: Had my first egg today. It was super yummy!

1st day back to work = epic fail on protein & water. Trying harder today.

Don't be too hard on yourself. The first few days back are tough. My suggestion would be starting the day with a high protein shake like Premier Protein ready made shake which is only 11 ounces but contains 30g protein. That helps knock out part of your fluid and protein goal. Tomorrow will be easier!

Working the preop diet to prepare for surgery 12/17/15!
I hear though that the food issues often resolve themselves after time. So give it some time. It would suck not to be able to have cheese. It sucks for me no eggs
