Thought we could all convene here after our Feb sx so we could stay in touch....

Hey Guys,

I haven't been on here in a couple weeks but I am glad to see everyone is doing well. I will be 10 weeks tomorrow and all thought I thought I was a slow loser, it's coming off in spurts. I am excited for my next apt.

I already have a huge change in energy. Yesterday I ran home with my kids from the pool. my husband had the car to drive us home but I wanted to run with the boys instead. The old me would have taken the car home.

I am also starting train for a couple 5ks.

Hope everyone is doing great!!!!

I will be 8 weeks on monday as of today lost 19 pounds total' date=' less then I have wanted, but slow is ok, don't want hanging skin. I eat 40 carbs a day, I try for 800 some times its more or less, I try to get 80 protein, adn 64 oz water, I always have a protein shake every day which is 30 grams, I use a 32 oz bpa free water jug and fill it 2 times, so I know I have to keep drinking till end of day. I have not tried raw veggies or fruit yet. Going to wait till 3 months out and then try it, I only have troubles from chicken, it sits weird on tummy, so eating seafood and alot of ground beef ( chili) these days. mary[/quote']

Sounds like you are doing a very thorough job step by step and I picture big success for you

Hi

I was sleeved on 2/14 and and down 51lbs so far! I am still having trouble with drinking enough fluid. I think I've drank the 64 oz a day 3 or 4 times since surgery. Any ideas? Ive tried every kind of flavor for my water ' date=' drinking milk and everyday I have a protein shake for breakfast[/quote']

I am the same...but I asked my nut if sugar free popsicles are included. I love them and have a couple a day. They are included in the 64oz and due to melting you have to finish them .

Hi everyone!!! It has been a while for me. I have been super busy working 65 hours a week and running the kid to arena football practice and games/track practice and meets I haven't had much time to get on here. Hope everyone is well :-)

OK am 8 weeks out and lost 45# . but the dreaded flap jacks have started(my breasts are melting). Ugh. I was hoping that wouldn't happen but a few close people have noticed and commented too. Guess its time for some duck tape lol. But over all everything is good and steady..isn't that what wins the race?

I feel embarrassed eating around people cause my stomach starts making funny noises. Anyone else experience the belly sounds.

Yes, mine is constantly making wild angry animal noises. It doesn't usually matter what I eat some days are better than others. It doesn't always hurt just can be very noisy

Have to share my new breakfast recipe.......1 scoop protien powder, 1 egg, and milk to the consistency you like for a pancake, pour in heated pan, add blueberries and make like a pancake YUMMY! With the protein powder my Dr has me using this one pancake has 17 grams protein. As of today I have lost 40 lbs since surgery YEAH ME!

It was kinda inbetween the two. I used my smallest skillet, it just made one, pretty big, ate about 1/2 of it and then ate the other hald about 45 min later.

I have been eating these great wraps! I love bread & pasta so this is great! They are carb balance by mission. They have 120 calories, 3g fat, 1.5g sat fat, 19g carbs, 13g fiber & 5g protein. So these have only 6 net carbs!!!
