Lol I feel you on that one!! My mom came over to take me to the hospital. When I opened the door she had two trays of Cookies and a cookie hanging out of her mouth!! :)

We are taking the kids to Disney land on Christmas so I don't have to sit around and watch the food fest!!

Sorry to hear that. If it were me I'd tell them to hide the knives !! It is unheard of for anyone in our family to not be there fir Christmas and at first I felt selfish of not going. But then I realized I've lived my life worry about other people and their needs. Now is the time to think about ME ;)

I'm going to lose it if my husband complains about being hungry one more time as i'm choking down some Protein, and then he goes and gets Mcdonalds. :(

When you get cravings like that it's coming from your head and not your body. Just stop and realize that it's not something your body needs and it's just something your head wants. You won't starve by not eating those things. You can beat this.

Agree.

You need to find out your triggers and it sounds like one of them is the TV.

However, know that later, your real hunger will come back. For me, losing the weight was fairly easy. I did what they told me to do and I also exercised. Still do, almost daily. I am a year out now. My real hunger is back, although it is better than it was before the sleeve. Maintaining the weightloss is harder. Much harder.

Now is the time to learn to eat properly, use that sleeve as a tool and start healthy habits.

Good luck!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
