She isn't a weight lifter, she doesn't need Protein bars and shakes, she needs chicken and fish, small portions of roasted beef with a balance of veggies. Period.

Not stupid questions! Valid for your new life. Got questions ask we all learn as we go. I'm a November sleeper and I learn something new everyday! For real everyday is a learning opportunity.

2 1/2 months Post op and I have a question. Will I ever be able to eat and drink at the same time?

First post op visit down another 8lbs! Not as much as I hoped but the numbers are down not up! Total weight loss 20 lbs since pre-op diet start. Feeling great got the ok to drive and can start on soft foods Monday. Can't wait! liquid diet sucks! Got 4 more days before food something to chew at least. I am soooooo happy I'm on this journey NO REGRETS!

It was good! I think it was easier to get my drinks in because I didn't have time to be concerned about getting enough. It ended up that I was drinking more because I wasn't thinking about it. Did take a cat nap when I got home. So proud of me!

Welcome Paula I was sleeved on November 21st also. I cooked Thanksgiving dinner and wasn't even tempted. Trying to get this hydration thing under control, able to drink more about a bottle and a half of plain Water and about 16 oz of instant Breakfast. Working on another bottle of Water and 8 more ounces of instant Breakfast by Wednesday when I go in for post op visit. So hang in there so we can get to where we want to go! Good luck and congrats.

I'm going back to work today and I feel great so far. Took a little longer to dress and get ready but I did it. Not back to driving yet so my daughter will drop me off and hubby will pick me up. Getting ready to try my liquid Breakfast I'm back on liquids for 2 weeks! Oh boy just remembered today marks my 1 week post op! They said everyday would be better and so far that has been the case! No problems since day 1 where I had vomiting right after surgery so I spent an extra day in the hospital, but I've been better each day since. Well time to start on breakfast and than off to work. I will update you on how it goes! Wish me luck!
