Three Months Out Since Gastric Sleeve Surgery!
tjharmon replied to tjharmon's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
oh i forgot--i do have trouble getting protein--i am working on it--i am severely lactose intolerant (have been my whole life) and sleevey does not like eggs, fish, protein powder drinks of any kind, and has a hard time with chicken--the easiest thing to eat has been hamburger meat--so i wake up each day as a new chance to get protein in--i feel great though--i figure before my sleeve all the protein i was getting was around 20g a day... -
Three Months Out Since Gastric Sleeve Surgery!
tjharmon replied to tjharmon's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
i am taking double doses of Vitamins, plus the walking. my hair has not been falling out yet--i sure hope it stays that way, but i am prepared mentally if it does. once a week i boost my calories and eat A LOT of carbs--that seems to be keeping me from having too long of stalls --seems like i loose 5 pounds the day i eat all those carbs--lol my main problem is that i just don't want anything to eat--nothing sounds good and nothing taste good--well, sweets sound good but i have dumping so that is out!! i am really having to force myself to eat--that is the only problem i have had so far -
