I am 10 months out and my diary is open. I record my food most days.

Congratulations! That is my next big goal......to just be overweight!

I too found that I needed something like Prilosec for the first several months after surgery or I would have the sensation of hunger. It really helped when I took Omeprazole.

You're looking great!

Wow, what a change!

Great progress!

So glad you made it thru that mess of a pre-op time. Keep us posted on your progress, it sounds like you are off to a great start.

That's awesome progress!

Amazing changes!

You all are so inspirational!

Every time it happens I start thinking that I'm not going to lose anymore weight. I know that thinking this way is irrational as I only eat about 850 calories per…

That's a great NSV!

I was sleeved on 4/11/14. My diary is open to any friends. Please feel free to friend me to see what I eat on a daily basis. Toni

It seems that there is a lot of variation in different programs. I am six months postop and my calorie goal is 850 per day. This is where my nutritionist wants me to stay at this point in order to maximize my loss during the first year. She did say that I will be slowly moved up to 1200 calories per day. I am able to take…

Congratulations!

Welcome to the group. I was sleeved in March 2014. I have found this group supportive and helpful. Glad you are here!
