Looking for fellow Sleevers

I was sleeved on 11.12.13 and am feeling great. I am down 42 pounds and steadily loosing. I just connected my Fitbit to MFP and am looking to make friends here at MFP, especially those who have been sleeved.

My calorie goal is 900 and I need to keep better track of my calorie intake. I get close to 900 in a day and I don't want to go over. I'm supposed to get between 60 and 80 grams of protein and 65 ounces of liquid. For the most part, I get close to the protein and water, but not every day.

I find myself tempted occasionally with unhealthy choices - cookies, potato chips, etc. Most of the time I resist, but I will admit I have had a couple of cookies and some Pringles. I haven't yet mastered not drinking for 45 minutes after eating. I have a stressful job and stress eating has always been a part of my day, so I am working to manage my stress level and how I react to the stress.

So, I'm looking for some fellow Sleevers to befriend and connect with.

Have a great evening!

    Hello,
    Sleeved on 12/02/13. Feeling great. Also get the urges, just have to make sure I drink enough water and I'm usually good if I do. Good luck.
