One can of vegetarian retried Beans split between 5 1/2 cup bowls with a sprinkle of cheese on top. Just ready to be popped into the microwave for a minute or so for a meal.

I actually ate one bowl for dinner and a bowl the same size of cottage cheese for lunch. I drank one and a half Protein Shakes today and have not had any Water because I didn’t get up until after 12:00 today and after my shower I had to have my coffee. Then I had to wait 30 minutes before I could eat, and after I ate I had to wait another 30 minutes before I could drink the Protein shakes.

One of my definite go tools. Easier on the stomach than most anything else I have tried.

Ladies and gentlemen I don't know if you guys have heard of something called skinny syrups its a no calorie and no sugar liquid flavoring I just added a drop to my Protein Shake (which it says you can add to coffee oatmeal lattes yogurts etc.) And it made a big difference in taste the shake wasn't as charky way more tolerable. Mind you my surgery for the sleeve is in 2 weeks hopefully it will still taste great afterwards. They come in different flavors as well I saw pumpkin spice, vanilla, and mocha flavors from TJMAXX.

Hi KBridge,

I’m well. Traveled last week for work and it was tiring! I had my first bite of real food last night and that tiny amount of chicken salad might have been the best thing ever. Super frustrated that the scale didn’t move the whole week I was gone though. Ugh! Like how is that possible. I’m hoping I was swollen from flying.

Still some pain on left side but so much better. How are you?

I'm doing okay. Still extremely fatigued though and having trouble getting enough Water or food but getting better everyday. I also still have pain on the left side and the incision right above my belly button.

scale is moving but I still can't see it yet...apparently everybody else can.

our bodies are peculiar machines...I have no doubt that you will get back to losing again. Stay in touch! ;)

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
