So I am almost 8 weeks post op and have been doing great! I’ve lost 36 pounds and I exercise at least 6 days a week and eat mostly Protein and try to eat less than 30 carbs a day. But today has been rough. All I want is Cereal. Like fruity pebbles cereal. And I’ve been hungry today like no other!!!!! And because of all this I feel big and like I’m sabotaging my hard work! I would even eat the fruity pebbles in almond milk if it would help!
I guess I am just looking for reassurance from my sleeve family that I’m just have one of those days and it too shall pass 😔

I heard a rumor that GNC has a Protein Powder that tastes like Fruity Peebles, either one of the Ghost brand blends or another proprietary brand,it was even a sample size! I saw it when I was there last chatting with the rep at the counter.

My point is find a way to make this work and don't eat that evil @$$ cereal.

Hope this helps!

Gomum I think some of it has to do with Aunt Flo on her way. Today is a new day though and I’m starting over!
Greentealael I will look into that! Thank you!

Oh Chugging🚝 right along. Tomorrow I start my prediet for,my September 5th RnY, we will find out if the statement " What does not kill me can only strengthen me: holds any credence. But I do want a smooth surgery that helps Ser me on my way toward a better life. It has to be an improvement from sitting obese and in pain , waiting daily for the Death Angel to claim me as his Own. That is a SAD way to have to exist and now I have hope that no longer will be my fate. So some tears💦so n e sorrow but there will be 🌞Sunlight ahead!

I had a day like that on Saturday. There were just a lot of personal issues that were happening, and I wanted food! I did eat more carbs than normal on that day. I was with my sister and her family, and we ordered Mexican. I got chicken with rice and queso. I ate mostly chicken and just a bite or two of rice, but then I came back and ate more later and ate the rest of my chicken with more rice. I also had a couple pieces of chocolate. But, hey, I tracked every bite, and I still lost 4 pounds this week. You're not always going to be perfect, and yes, it will pass!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
