Topic: RE: Goal Setting in Your Gastric Sleeve Surgery Journey

How can I get back on track with my goals if I've failed to try for 2 months? I've lost motivation and I don't eat according to my plan.

How did you know your sleeve was leaking.

Recent experience an attack and fell on my stomach. I am 33 days post op. I feel weak and have some uncomfortable soreness on the left side of my stomach. I can hold down water but vomited up puréed chicken 2 tsp. I think it's just cause my nerves but wondering if my sleeve could be leaking. I don't have a fever just feel weak.

a leak after wls will make you feel like you are dying. You will have fever snd be very ill. You will be going to the emergency room instead of posting on the internet.

Topic: RE: New member post

Hello,

Sorry about the passing of your Mother. Ours just passed away on January 19th & our Father passed away on August 3rd, 2020. I was the primary caregiver for both. I retired from my job January 2020 after 40 years with an insurance company to take care of them. Yes, it's a tough job but you can do it. You're doing the best you can. I'm a grazer, which is not good. That's how I got by. I usually eat the individual servings of puddings, applesauce, nut packages, etc. Also, to stay busy (it was hard) started packing our parents belongings & treasures. It was both tearful & joyful all the things there were. Anyway, good luck, take care.

Topic: RE: Recipe Sharing and Super Bowl Foods

I haven't discovered any new recipes, but I do crave all types of food. My go to food during the super bowl used to be chips (tostitos) and Mexican dip. I'm trying to get back on the weight loss boat but keep reaching for chocolates and not exercising. Great post, hope to see some food ideas to help me curve my appetite. My go to healthy foods are yogurt, cottage cheese, and eggs.
