in Introduce Yourself
I don't have any friends on here for support and I would like some... :-) Can't find anyone I know because the usernames are weird or there isn't a picture. I try to get on here every day so I can keep up with my calories and protein. I am a gastric sleeve patient, so my calorie intake is very low. I'm not trying to starve myself, that is just really all I can eat at this point.

    I have zero experience with your procedure and don't know how useful I'll be w/such a low food intake, but feel free to add me. I'm at least good for a laugh every now and then.

    Thanks everyone! A little about me... I am 5'7" and currently at 258 pounds. I had the gastric sleeve surgery done on 3/22/12 and my starting weight was 305! I am 27 years old and have two little girls that I need to be able to keep up with. I have always been a big girl, and haven't been average since high school and I still weighed 150. 150-160 is my goal weight and I am so anxious to get there! I love doing anything outdoors and playing with my girls. I live in Silsbee, Texas and have been married for 3 years. I love this site because it really helps me see what I eat and what all is really in it!!! I cannot eat much at a time since my stomach is so small, but I still have to try and make better food choices than I was previously. I hope to meet alot of great people on here so I can give and receive motivation!!!! :-)
