I didn't expect...



Recommended Posts

to miss food. Today seems like a tough day. I want pizza. That seems to be my biggest craving. Maybe I'm just tired and emotional, but today I miss food.

I used to be mad because I never felt full or satisfied. Now I feel full and satisfied too quickly.

Guess it's just a blah day.

I haven't had my surgery yet, but I just wanted to send out a big hug! I'm sure most have felt that.

I know how you feel. I get really hungry, but feel full after only a few bites and food doesn't't taste all that great. I guess that's not a bad thing , but it's not what I expected.

If you are craving pizza, try cutting a chicken breasr really thin sprinkle with garlic powder and broil in the oven til it's done. Add your pizza sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese and pop it back under the broiler until the cheese is bubbly. Hopefully this will satisfy your craving with less calories than the real thing.

I am 6 weeks out and trying to find my way, but it is a process. Good luck, maybe tomorrow will be better

@@shortsleeved made a good point. There are good alternatives to have the pizza taste with out the guilt. I hope you find a recipe that will satisfy the craving.

On my rough days. I try on the clothing I wore at my highest weight. I pat myself on the back. I know tomorrow is a new day and I press on.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
