1St Blog, 5 1/2 Months Post Op

Hi! I am nearing my 6 month post op 'surgiversary'. I had written a post in the forum when I was 2 months post op about how I was worried because I was able to eat way more than alot of other sleevers. Here is my update since then. I am still able to eat the same amount of food now (at almost 6 months) then when I was 2 months out. I do not exercise like I need to, and I do not eat the right kinds of foods. Yesterday for instance, I ate 3 chicken nuggets, 3 french fries, and 1 1/2 slices of pizza (minus the crust) for the whole day. I also have not been drinking as much water as I should. The whole day I drink maybe 1 or 2 bottle waters and thats it. However, water is the only liquid I put into my mouth (no teas or sodas or anything). I do take my vitamins every single day though.   When it comes to weight loss.. I am a slow loser. I usually am battling the same 2 or 3 pounds for two weeks before a pound finally comes off. For example: I have been 189-190 back and forth for the last 16 days. This is because I eat whatever I want (chips, junk) and don't get up to exercise or get in the much needed protein for the day. This started about a 2 months ago. I was keeping track of protein and water for months before this and I was losing, slowly but losing. Now, that Ive stopped tracking... I am stuck. That's why I'm back here writing this blog.. to get me motivated to continue with the tracking. It helps so much.   My weight loss so far: 1 month : 28lbs lost 2 months: 10lbs lost 3 months: 10lbs lost 4 months: 9lbs lost 5 months: 9lbs lost 6 months: not there yet but stuck at same weight for 16 days so #'s probably going to be really really low   All in all, 5 months post op, I've lost 66 lbs, which isn't bad but could be wayyyy better. When people say the sleeve is a tool that you have to make work for you... believe that.. it's totally true.
