Hi All, Just wanted to share two things I've developed that were good: Thick sliced tomatoes with ricotta, mozzarella, fresh basil, garlic, italian seasoning, salt and pepper - put it under the broiler until the cheese browns. Mini pizzas with no carbs and about 5 g protein for each one...

I want a payoff for my efforts :>) Thanks for the responses!

Thank you Thanks so much for the responses - I appreciate it! I'm trying to be patient. The nutritionist finally called back today. I think part of the issue is the very low calorie count - my body isn't used to it being that low. I'm upping it to about 800/day, which I hope will help...

Hi All! I had my gastric sleeve surgery on 6/24/13. During the first week, I dropped 10 lbs. Second week - 2 lbs. I'm in week three now. I was on the liquid diet for about 10 days (400-450 calories/day) and moved into "mushy foods" almost a week ago. I've had no problems with anything...

That is awesome, Sharon! Good for you! I walked a mile yesterday with no trouble - I hope it bodes well moving forward...

That's good to hear. I went back to work today, and I'm exhausted. Had to take a nap in my car!

Just saying hello - had my surgery last Monday (6/24) - gastric sleeve. Feeling very tired and worn out but have lost 9 lbs so far. How long until the fatigue subsides?
