I'm 66. Scheduled for abdomenoplasty next month and was wondering if I was too old.. if I get 10 years with a flatter tummy, I'm not too old. You have over half your life for a flatter tummy. Do it!

I'm 13 weeks sleeve post op. Losing 1-2 pounds a week. Sleeping well. Feeling well overall. But the thought of chewing and swallowing a meal just turns me off so I don't do it. Getting plenty of protein thru Greek yogurt and protein shakes and applesauce with added collagen. Some fruit and nuts but no meat. Ugh! So am I developing an eating disorder or are there others who just don't enjoy food? Thanks!

Yes! Exactly!

13 weeks sleeve post op. A little hair loss just began but that's ok. I am just not hungry. The thought of eating a meal makes me sick to my stomach (literally.) I'm losing 1-2 pounds a week. Sleeping well. Feel fine. But living on greek yogurt and protein shakes and applesauce with added collagen. Oh- some fruit and nuts too. Is this ok or am I developing some eating disorder? Anyone else in the same boat?

Sounds like this is HIS problem. Without knowing him, it sounds as though he's insecure about himself. Advice from an old retired RN- your health comes first. You do YOU.

I used to guzzle it and could get in a gallon day. Sipping? I struggle to get 32 ounces. Any hints?

5 weeks post sleeve and I've been physically hungry all day. I've not yet felt this. Made a pizza for the teenager and i had 3 bites. It's sitting like the dough ball that it is in my pouch. I feel awful. Lesson learned, i hope!

If you have a Lidl store nearby, they sell Fairlife in gallons!

Fantastic news!!! So happy for you!

Hello! I was sleeved a month ago and have stayed on liquids because looking at real food sort of turns me off. No desire at all. I know i cant continue this way. For breakfast, i drink sugar free Carnation Instant Breakfast with 1% skim milk. Lunch is soup. Etc I'd like to try real food for breakfast because I'm shaky/ hungry in the morning and would really appreciate your (light) breakfast suggestions. Thanks!

No preop diet. Just clear liquids and a protein drink the night before and the morning of surgery. VSG 9/18 @ Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston.

Morning Sleepy Sunday! Is there an app that yall like best to track weight loss and BMI (Android?)

Whee!!! You're an inspiration! What weight loss do you like best?

Is there an app that yall like for tracking weight loss?

You can pound quickly!? Not me. I vomit. 16 days and I baby that pouch with baby sips all day.
