Hi All!

I wanted to start a thread for African-American sleevers (no worries I HEART all sleevers from the rainbow). I just thought, no scientific proof, that African-American sleevers may respond to the surgery different than our lovely non-African American sleeved sisters and brothers. I wanted to know if we had the same skin issue, hair problems, and other surgery related issues. Also, how to deal with the culture shock. African-American "soul food" may be something of the past... or not. So I was just looking for a space to voice culture related issues and concens.

PS- I TRULY :heart: ALL SLEEVERS.

Is anyone else tired of Protein Shakes? But if I don't drink it or use it as a substitute then I can't get enough Protein in cuz I can eat so much and no more. I can't even finish one egg. What should I do and what if any suggestions. Thnx

Confused loser here????

I'm 5"6 sleeved at 237. Im wondering if I will be down at least 20 by thanksgiving. It's so hard trying to get my protein in. Seems this afternoon it's gotten a little easier. I'm even walking more.

I hated the shakes, I use other protein products from my MDs office like, hot chocolate, flavored water, soups and I get in 80-100+ gms a day.

Getting in 80-90g of protein a day seems impossible right now.
