HELLO I AM DAY 6 I WOKE UP FEELING GOOD BUT AFTER MY SHOWER AND FIX MY Breakfast I FEEL SO SICK RIGHT NOW I CANT EVEN DRINK MY BREAKFAST, I HAD TO TAKE A NAUSEA PILL. LAST NIGHT WAS RUFF I MUST SAY. I THINK I STRESSED THE MAIN INSISION AND IT BOTHERED ME ALL NIGHT THE ACHE WENT ALL THE WAY TO MY BACK. YES I WAS SCARED BUT I KNEW I WOULD BE OK. I THINK I AM HAVING A REACTION TO TRADER JOES SPICY BLACK BEAN Soup, KEY WORD SPICY LOL.

I WAS ABLE TO GET MY 60 GRAMS OF PROTIEN IN AND I THINK THAT MADE ME SICK AS WELL I WAS FORCING IT BUT I COULDNT FINISH IT NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRIED LOL.

I HOPE EVERYONE WHO HAS HAD THE SURGERY IS DOING WELL. PLEASE SHARE YOUR PROGRESS SO WE CAN LEARN FROM EACH OTHER.

Just reading all your posts...been mia for a while with work and the Holidays. All in all most seem to be doing so well. Seriously, who gives you a box of chocolates knowing your history? Here's what you do...eat one and share with everyone you know. If you can't have a piece of chocolate life may very well not be worth it!!! Kidding. But seriously, there are treats in life and it's okay to have ONE.

Sorry to hear of the troubles that some of you are having with your hubbies. But deltrans is right, you just need to work on you for now. You don't have to be hateful to him but just be happy with you. You can't fix someone else, the only one you can fix is you. Whether it's your weight or your attitude, we are responsible for us. And perhaps as you improve he may be inspired to do better as well. I've been married 21 years...and there are days, but the majority are good ones. And we didn't get in this to get out of it. Not an option. So we make it work. Hang in there. Even if you are the only one doing the work right now. You are important which is why you had this surgery. No matter how things end up, you need to be healthy.

My mother is coming for Christmas next week. I'm freaking out!! She knows I had some surgery but not that I was sleeved. She's going to notice that I don't eat much. Nervous. She is so judgemental. And she will tell every living soul. And it's none of their freaking business!! This is mine. Just me. I didn't do it for them. And I don't want to share. I sound like a toddler. I'm already planning stuff just to keep her busy...so maybe she won't notice. Here's hoping.

Girllll my mom-same thing!!! lolbsmh. Ill be honest I didnt tell her. When she asks why am I not eating or why am I not eating much I just tell her I am on a diet. And leave it at that.

Good idea! How stupid simple is that? DUH. I am on a diet. BAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Technically I am.

Exactly!!!! lol

My follow up appt went well....surgeon is very pleased with my weight loss. My dietician was in nasty car wreck....so I was assigned a different one. Me not likey her so much.

Sorry to hear of some of your relationship problems....

@newgrandmother....did the massage help?

NGMA- NOOOO, I said THINKING like that would not help me lose weight. I was craving a full on french toast breakfast after reading your post. Not a healthy one like you had either. LOL.

green. i was told to get 1200 cals a day, i know i thought the same thing. somedays i can get there but most days i average 800-900cals a day. i suggest find something you really like and make it your lunch or dinner. like me i go to trader joes ive purchased things like teriyaki chicken, turkey corn dogs, orange chicken, shrimp fried rice, chicken egg rolls. and sometimes that still dont give me 1200 cals. i noticed through kaiser the last few weeks of 90 days they increased my portien from 2oz to 3oz so try that. i eat chobani yogart 1/2 cup now im going to increase it to 1 cup to add calories and hope i can fit it in my new tummy. let me give you a sample of what my breakfast and morning snack is. breakfast french toast, 1 piece of bacon and 1/4 cup of peach. i left a good piece of toast on my plate. morning snack is a baby bell cheese and 1/4 cup of sliced apples. havent planned lunch dinner yet. try some of the ideas. im losing 1-2lbs a week though so thats a little slow. but my nut said the slower the better our skin wont hang as much and we wont be at risk of gaining it back, its like our bodies adjust to that new wieght before it let go of somemore.

bukki so glad it went well yesterday. and yes the massage helped, girl for $20 they massage you from heat to toe. first they put your feet in warm water then lay you back and massage your head temples neck and upper body. than they massage your feet and legs after that you turn over and get the best back massage all of that for $20 and its an hour. i walked out like a noodle.

kparker you must start thinking how to make your favorite foods healthy thats all. try the french toast and bacon. yummmyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

im down another 2lbs slowly but surely

Hi all went to my 3 month appt today. Everything is going good. Dr is thrilled with my success. I have tons of heartburn so they upped My meds for that. He mention there would be hair loss and he said your hair grows from the food u ate 3 months ago....so the people saying they are getting all there protein and still losing hair it doesn't matter what you are eating the hair loss is from our month we had no protein. Now the protein u are eating will help with stopping the loss and it will not be as bad. So everyone is different but keep up with the protein. Ngrand. So good to see you on here you are really helping people every day!! Congrats on your success
