What do non-cooks eat in the 4th month?
I eat lots of cheese, cold cuts, etc. Lots of high protein foods that don't require cooking. Mexican food is great without rice, chips, and tortillas. Think fajitas or something like that. I order burgers without buns, with slaw for a side. Walmart rotisserie chickens are great. Any take out minus the carbs will work. Keep whatever fresh vegetables you like in the refrigerator also. I eat cucumbers for a snack quite often. If you like sardines, they are great protein. Tuna as well. Keep up the good work!

Deep stitch
I tore some flesh deep overdoing it after my surgery. It was around three weeks out. I thought I was good to go. Wrong! It was brutal. I can remember the instant relief when it finally dissolved.

Thanksgiving Purée

Stomach noises

One year today
I do. I struggle with evening grazing. I'm very careful to graze on protein and vegetables though. Maintenance is a challenge. Best advice that I could offer is to follow your plan and do what your team tells you to do for the first year at least. My eating habits have completely changed as a result of follow my plan. I hope a can continue to keep it off.

One year today
Today is a year since my sleeve surgery. I started at 294 lbs and this morning I am 175. I bounce around the low 170s. I feel good and would do it again in a heart beat. My aches and pains are mostly gone and so is my severe sleep apnea. At 53, I weigh less than I did in high school. Lol

November 2020 sleevers
Tuesday will be a year for me. 122 down and finding success with maintenance, for around 4 or 5 months now.

What do you consider "Starting Weight"?
The day before I started my pre op diet. My highest weight ever.

Breakfast ideas?
1/3 cup cottage cheese with a tablespoon of oikos insteadof fruit. That's what I do.

Tough it out. In time you'll eat pasta again. Stay the course. Good luck.
