  4. The same thing happened to me at week 3. And I'm not doing anything wrong in terms of chatting... Im a bit more relieved to see I'm not the only one that is facing this ! So frustrating

  6. Oh man stairs are not easy yet for sure! I I'm feeling a bit better today but walking very slow, when did you get your surgery? How are you feeling now? I will say one thing I can't wait to be off of these all liquids! Lol
  7. Thank you ! I was so concerned about it, I'm feeling a bit better and was able to walk a bit outside today, how are you feeling ?
  8. I just had my band to bypass done 4/26 and spent 5 days in the hospital. It has been very uncomfortable to take deep breathes or talk for long periods of time ... my stomach still does seem inflated a bit with gas but I just wanted to see if this was something that had happened with any of you ?

  12. I can't wait to have more energy .. I used to have 3x the energy I do now even just a year ago. I feel terrible that I'm not giving my energetic 5 year old what I used to! I tried to play kick ball with him the other day and it was rough running around the bases without slowing down. I also can't wait to wear skirts and shirts that show thighs without cellulite! And to wear a bathing suit and not be self conscious ! My surgery is this Wednesday and whether I get nervous I think of these things!

  17. I got banded 2013 (lap band) and then I was able to come off my CPAP once I lost a bunch of weight and man I was DELIGHTED but then my band slipped and I gained back most of if and now I'm going Wednesday the 26th to get a Bypass and I'm so excited to look and feel like that again . It's just so hard with being exhausted allllllll the time to get anything done let alone be a mom, a Chef in NYC and try to find time for the gym! Ha! That's. A joke! Well I hope you all are feeling well and I cavy what to be in recovery mode like all of you ! Even though I know it's going to be a tough road full of protein shakes soup and homemade baby food lol !

  22. I don't think it sounds like you are behind at all everyone's body is different. I had the lapband put in a few years ago and now I'm going for the bypass next week and I'm nervous about the walking! After my band it took me over a week to just do a block! I was in a lot of pain getting up and down the thought of more than a block was brutal to me! So keep your goals and maybe push yourself a minute or two longer each day you will get there !!!!
  23. I'm April 26th and the whole thing is finally feeling a bit more real as I get everything in order this weekend for Wednesday! Good luck to all of you coming up soon! (And I hope those who have gone already thank you for all sharing your stories!)
  24. Thank you !!!! I'll def try those out! I've been getting so frustrated but how gross some of these are!
  25. ..... sorry I meant PRE-op but it wouldn't let me change it.
  26. I wrote a post earlier but for some reason it wouldn't allow me to change title, I'm looking for some suggestions on good protein shakes and some ideas other than jello!
  27. I've been watching a bunch of YouTube on things people have be consuming during this getting ready but I'm hitting a wall of not finding products I like. EVERY Protein Shake I've tried is so nasty! And I don't like hello or popsicles... so would love anyone's suggestions EsP on the Protein part !! Thank you !
