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.

I am one month out today and I have lost 27 lbs. I have to tell you something amazing. My sons birthday was Oct. 9th. There is 3/4 of a chocolate fudge cake left and I could care less about it. That is a miracle. Before my surgery I would not had been able to leave it alone. I hope this continues!!

NG, sorry I haven't called yet, I've been having a hard time as I know we all have.

I finally paid rent today and thankfully my manager was nice and waived the $100 late fee since she knew I had surgery.

So frustrated that I can't enjoy food anymore, it's now a chore to eat. I'm still dizzy and sore from being dehydrated and now I'm sick. Plus this week has been emotional for me since Saturday is the 20 year anniversary of my dads death. I know people think I should be over it since its been so long but it bothers me that he's been gone longer than I had him in my life, and now I can't even eat the pain away.

The scale hasn't moved lately and I'm disappointed with my weight loss, I'm losing slower than a lot of people on here and I've got 100 pounds more to lose than anyone I've seen on here, I would think with soooo much to lose it would come off a little faster.

Life does get hard at times. I lost my father when i was one year old. Someone decided that he did not have to stay with his children and took his life so I know how you feel. My father was 21 when he died the thoughts have been with me all my life. It was hard to grow up at watch other little girls with their father. I am 31 now so i spent my life without a father but i knew about the love that he had for me listening to the stories my mom told. I have had a rather bad day today to a little stressed and I cant eat my stress. This experience has really been a journey for me because i truly did not know that food had such an impact on my everyday living. I am also losing weight slowly and i thought that I would be losing faster but I am not and I am exercising everyday. I guess all I can do now is continue the journey because there is no turning back, I know that we are going to be able to get through this 1 STEP AT A TIME..

did you guys see the post on a protien drink. if not here is the receipe i think its great instead of the protien powders.

1 cup non fat milk in a shaker

1/2 cup on unflavored greek yogart

2 squeezes of mio

walla a protien drink without the whey i will be trying this man

What is mio & I use 2% milk - thank God my stomach still tolerates milk - I was a huge milk lover before... I want a big tall glass so bad - lol...

Mio is a small almost kind of rounded triangular shaped bottle of yummy stuff you add to Water, or whatever, to add flavor. You'll find it where the powdered drink mixes (like Crystal Light) are. I like it because unlike Crystal Light, it doesn't contain Aspertame, which I can't tolerate.

Use it in plain Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, add to water or in shakes like the one above........

Oh ok, yes I have seen those near the crystal light but never tried them-so what's the total Protein in drinking this...

I can not drink another shake period

You can use this same recipe without the mio, add frozen fruit, put it in a blender....add a packet of truvia if necessary and yum!

Tried this this morning except I didn't use the mio cause I didn't have any.. I used the sugar free Torani syrup, I also added a scoop of strawberry protein powder. I like the Maxpro protein powder. I get it at maxmuscle.com or at the Max Muscle in San Francisco.

Today 3 weeks ago I had my sleeve done. Im down 24 lbs!

What does everyone think about eating sunflower and pumpkin seeds.,i was on a stall and after eating them one day off and on bc I felt hungry I lost 2 lbs the next day. I know they are high in salt but besides that they have lots of iron and protein. You have to chew them real good and it takes time in between each one bc you have to crack the shells. Just wondering if its something I should be eating?
