Have a great day my sleevers. I know it's a hard day for some. All ill say is think about your calories and make sure what you eat is worth it (my dads pumpkin pie is so worth it.) this year I will only have a sliver instead of a half pie :-D

Yes, Happy Thanksgiving/Turkey Day! This will truly be a new experience for me...no stuffing my mouth today. Hubby says he is gonna prepare a small sampler plate for me. I look at all the food that is prepared/being prepared and wonder how did I ever take it all in. I am thankful knowing there is no way I will overeat today!

I helped my wife get that 22 pound turkey in the oven this morning,13 for lunch. Relatives will make this great. They all know our story and will not be shocked by the small portions wife and I put on our plates. All are supportive. I am so grateful to God for being alive and slim with a wife in good health and kids that love me.

Happy Thanksgiving to all!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Enjoy your day! Do pay attention to every bite you put in your mouth. For many of us who cook today, I'm sure taste testing along the way was part of the ritual. Along with munching on leftovers while putting the food away. Maybe recruit others to clean up while you and a good friend, family member or even the dog, go for a walk. Start a new tradition!

Just remember, every bite counts so make it worth it. Do not deprive yourself because this IS the way you need to eat for the rest of your life. Be healthy, successful and guilt free!

Happy Thanksgiving all! I'm just a little over one week out, but my surgeon has ok'd turkey, green Beans, mashed potatoes and stuffing! I'm bringing a small plate and my baby spoon and fork. I'm nervous how my stomach will react since I've been on mostly liquids for two weeks.

I must remind myself how grateful I am for my family and my health and my sleeve!

happy 1rst new thanksgiving with your sleeve

good for you - you realize you must listen to your new tummy - be very careful, eat slllllllllow, chewing carefully

your tummy will probably not let you eat much - it might rebel - so listen, its only thinking of you :)

have a wonderful day , be grateful for family, loved ones - and of course new tummy

continued happiness through your recovery, and the rest of your healthier happier life

I am so Thankful for this day and for being sleeved June 28. I can still enjoy Thanksgiving just with Portion Control. Today I am 100 lighter that I was pre-op 357 and now 257! If this isn't something to be thankful for I don't know what is. It is a beautiful day in Houston, Tx and I'm about to go walking. Praise Him!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
