Topic: RE: Time to See What Everyone's Eating Now?
I eat...pretty much nothing. Going on Tuesday (for my stinkin birthday) to find out why I cannot eat or drink even water. Thank god for the people on this board who pointed out I may have a stricture. I called my surgeon and they said "well, you are drinking too fast.....WHAT!!!!???? I cannot drink shakes, or eat normal food. Just mostly yogurt.
I think it will get better. Thanx for posting this, because without comparason we don't know what the average (I wont say normal) is. Went from having a full head of 4 foot long hair to thin and short around my ears. Listen people, pat yourselves on the back for coming out ok, and eating as you should - but for the grace of god......

If you want to find more gastric sleeve patients, you may want to try the gastric sleeve forum (from the home page). I had lap RNY on 8/27 and I'm down about 20 lbs (I finally got rid of my scale the other day, so I don't know exactly how much). I, too, was very disappointed with the slow progress. I'm trying to look at the positive side now. I could never have lost that much on any other diet program. I'm also exercising everyday and I feel and look better. Good luck!

Topic: RE: Anyone Starting to Notice?
I had my surgery on August 6th. I have lost almost 60 lbs including the weight that I had lost prior to surgery. All of my friends have noticed a great change (especially in my face), and my co-workers have noticed as well (although the men seem reluctant to say anything about it; maybe they think I will be offended for some strange reason 
). I have gone from a size 28 to a size 22/24, adn I have had to clean out most of my closet. I am just loving it all!
