Hi, my name is Caryn and I am turning 50 this Monday.

I am post opt 3 1/2 weeks, due to sever acid re flux and a hernia I had to have my sleeve converted to full gastric. I had my surgery at Kings Daughters by Rodrick Tompkins who in my opinion one of the best. I have 3 grandson who are my inspiration to get healthy. My starting weight was 212 when I left the hospital, and my goal weight is to be between 150 and 160.

I was around 1/4 cup around that time and that is what I was told to focus on. I could not go beyond that without feeling very very full.I have been told not to pay attention to calories as long as you are following a high protein, low carb, low fat diet. It's what you put into your new pouch that is important.

Thanks so much,

I have been doing Protein 35 shakes, half in the morning and half for lunch, soft Proteins for dinner. I am going to aim for 20 carbs a day, 70 protein.
