I also bought chop sticks from dollar tree that help me eat slowly. And I use knife and fork at each meal

Breakfast 1 egg fried with pam spray topped with 1/4 cup chedddar cheese. I use a scale to weight allot of my foods by grams or ounces. lunch half a white tortilla with 1 boiled egg 1 tsp mayonaise mustard dinner 3 ounces shrimp chopped fried with 1 tsp olive oil 1/4 cup marinera sauce and 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese. I try to get in 64 ounces of Water a day, 60-70 grams of Protein daily , Vitamins , 800 max calories daily. Sometimes I indulge in pringles or dark chocolate but it is a once a month thing and I remain in the 800 zone. I just started going to the gym 2 times a week exercising for an hour. Hope this helps Good luck with your weightloss and remember each body is different. It dosnt matter how long it takes whats important is that you get there STAY STRONG dont give up

I never paid attention to carbs just Protein and Water. I usually try to get protein in first. My doc said 40 carbs a day on most days im above that. I stick to 800 max calories a day.

Thanks everyone I never thought I would be on this end . I wached dozens of videos on youtube of before and afters and dreamed that I would someday be where I am today. Dont give up and if you get off track start new the next day forget all the mistakes and try again

It was not an easy road and I still struggle but each day will get better and better congrats on getting the sleeve

Thank you , I followed what my doc told me to do Max 800 calories a day and try to hit 60 protein, 64 oz water, vitamins I just started exercising about 3 weeks ago.

I have noticed on multiple occasions that before I get the urge to go #2 I feel shortness of breath unstable like something's wrong with me then I get the urge to go? I never had this pre -op but have noticed it now at 6 months out. Weird. Once I get the urge it all goes away.

Start a new fresh slate go on a ten day full liquid diet then start back on the basics! You need to get 70-80 grams of protein in daily and remain at 800 calories max per day!.In order to do that you must eat protein rich foods first at each meal. The protein should be 75% of your meal. Measure and weight what you it. 4 ounces at each meal only. If you follow these main rules you will definently loose weight. You also need to drink 64 ounces of water a day. Take your multi vitamin and calcium/vit-d daily. Keep your carbs around 40 grams a day. Use myfitnesspal.com to keep your self accountable.You should also exercise 5 days a week for 30-45 minutes. Everyone falls off the wagon the key to success is to get up dust your self off and try again! I tried to quite smoking for 3 years. I would stop then smoke then quite then smoke. finally quite and it stuck! Each time you go threw failing at something you learn and change in a certain way. Give up for a while but go right back to it when your ready. You can do this. The sleeve is a tool. If you use it the way it is meant to be used you will have amazing results. The way you use the sleeve will become your new way of life. By repeatedly following the rules it will eventually become a habit and will be like second nature to you. good luck and never give up

I have lost 9 pounds this month and lost 3.5 inches off my body. Weightloss has definitely slowed down. I still have 39 pounds to loose .

If it last more than 24 hours I would call your doc you don't want to dehydrate. Hope you feel better

Weigh your self once a week only! on the other days have someone hide it! As for bowel movements. It can mess with what the scale says by up to 5 pounds that's my experience. Don't fret theres only one way for the scale to go and thats down be patient and as the other person posted give your body time to catch up Good luck

When I get hungry its usually a sign of thirst or heartburn. I try drinking 17 ounces bottle of water if im still hungry after that I take tums or zantac. My hunger signal post op has become feeling tierd or weak that how I remember to eat? weird?
