Hi all. Thought I would start and specific date thread so we can keep tabs on each other. I'm going to RE-introduce myself by pasting a previous post. Hope we can all get to know each other and provide support!!

My name is Sabrine and I am 36 yrs old. I am married for six years now. I've been having weight issues all of my life. Highest weight ever in high school was 374 pounds. Then I lost 200 pounds using ephedra. Once they yanked that off the shelves I slowly gained most of the weight back. Starting this journey December 30, 2013 my weight was 326 pounds. Began going to all of my doctors appointments and my preoperative tests. And I made my own personal lifestyle changes in preparation for the sleeve. Current weight is 279 pounds. My date is April 21, 2014. I have no home support for this whatsoever. My husband is against it as well as my sisters and my mother. I'm nervous scared and excited. I have two amazing kids Jackson is four and Olivia is 15 months. I'm having some serious second thoughts about this since I am losing weight and seeing results. I think I've bitched about it to anybody who will listen. Lol. Okay. Now it's somebody else's turn. What's your story???

Eggs don't seem to agree with me on my second day of soft solid foods. Threw up for the first time since surgery two weeks ago. Ugh.

Me too. Applesauce. I was hurting for 6 hours.

6. Getting my Protein and Water in

So apparently I'm dehydrated because I started pureed and have only been sipping water. My BP dropped again to 89/50. The doctor says water won't do because we need salt. He's making me sip broth the rest of the day. If my BP isn't up tomorrow then I have to go in for an infusion.

So sorry gixxergirl. You need to get that pressure up! Hope you feel better soon!

Sorry to hear that. I know after having puréed food u don't want's to go back to broth. But dr' s orders. Feel better

Thanks. I'm kicking like a kid sipping broth.

Ive been mixing half G2 Gatorade and half Water to keep my electrolytes up ever since the surgery. Also been taking my Vitamins.

Starting weight was 262. Surgery weight was 232. Today's weight is 215.

I had a stall during my period where my weight climbed from 218 to 220 and stayed for a whole week but once the period was over my weight dropped to 215.

Apparently my cast Iron stomach has turned into a cast iron sleeve. I haven't had issues keeping anything down. Ive been eating all Protein with a bite or two of veggie. Mainly pot roasted beef and pork (falling apart tender). chicken and eggs; cheese and yogurt and skim milk.

I need to log my protein to see how much I'm getting.

Edit: I logged my meals for today and I got about 55 g of protein from my food.
