      I feel your pain Indium47!! My heart also goes out to you - this must be very hard for you being newly married. But, this is going to be the best test for your husband. Make sure you tell him what

      I understand about feeling isolated at times. My husband doesn't mind eating in front of me, he is a stick and can eat anything he wants and not gain a pound (butthead), so I am lucky there. My mom d

    How is everyone's energy level. I've been back to work for 1 week and I have to go sit down after walking around for a few minutes. I had to lay down after combing my daughter's hair this morning. I am taking my vitamins and getting in about 65 g of protein. How is everybody else? Surgery was July 24, 21lb down

    I was sleeved on July 30th. I didn't bounce back as fast as I anticipated but yesterday was a very good day. I've lost 19 so far. I'm having a hard time getting my protein and water in for the day but I'm working hard on it. I will return to work on Monday the 12th. Oh what a journey this will be!

    I was sleeved on July 15 starting weight 305 and 285 the day of surgery. I'm 264 today. I still can't believe I've lost 40lbs. I have trouble getting in all my protein. I just can't do shakes anymore. The taste just makes me nauseous. Besides that no complaints. Best decision I ever made.

    Sleeve revision on July 15th, pre surgery weight 208 as of today 183, probably a couple pounds less if it weren't for that time of month! The first couple weeks you are so tired, but don't feel discouraged! By week 4 you will feel a lot better. Being able to eat regular foods really does help. I noticed someone said they couldn't do the protein, I couldn't either. I got so tired of them when I had the band that they just make me sick now! I would suggest focusing on staying hydrated more than anything because that is actually more important anyways. If you can do that and then get to your purée stage, you should be good :)
