Hello! My name is Brittany. I am a 25 year old mother of 2 beautiful girls, I work and am in graduate school. I had my surgery last year on 11/23/11 (the day before Thanksgining). It has been one of the best decisions of my life. I have been lurking on these boards since before I had surgery and have finally decided to stop being antisocial and join already! I glad to be a part of the group now!

Just like a woman, always late to the party. *runs for cover*

My diet has been pretty standard. Trying to get in fluids (although I could be much better), eat protein when possible (although I am not nearly as strict as some others as I love pasta lol) try to remember to take all of my vitamins every day, and stay away from junk foods (although once in a blue moon I might have a handful of flaming hot cheetos lol). I find that when I do follow those guidelines I do feel much better. I was a serial dieter before the sleeve and now I feel like I eat like a thin person does. I eat well most of the time but I'm not afraid to indulge occasionally.When I do indulge, it is delicious and not shameful. Now that I am a bit futher out and closer to my goal (so close yet so far lol) I have to be a little more strict to sustain regular weightloss but nothing too intense. I hope that answers your question! And I am sure you will find all the success you desire as well!
