I have turned to this forum in hopes of finding some answers. I have my VSG back in Sept 12, I was 340-345 pounds at a 49.9% BMI. I am currently 245-250 and 31% BMI. I work out 3-4 times a week with Push Ups, Running 1mile on the tread mill, and play Airsoft on the weekends. For the past 3-5months my weight has not changed. I am starting to get concerned I will not drop any more. Is this normal. The Vitamins I take daily are Multi Vitamin, Calcium Citrate, A & D, Fish Oil, Creatine, BCAA, B12 and have a 16oz whey Protein shake every morning. I eat eggs, chicken, Fish and some pork along with Fruits and Veggies every day. Drink about 3-5 cups of coffee with the liquid Hazelnut creamer daily, and Drink 50-5oz of Water daily. Am I doing something wrong. I feel great, but think I should be dropping weight.

True. but cup size is 4oz. So its not alot. But I will work on cutting the down to 1-2 cups/day

Wont ditch the coffee. Its a must for me. I dont drink anything else but Water or a Protein shake in the day. I also dont eat sweets or eat out. So its my one little treat.

dont monitor my calories, carbs or fat in take much. since everything I eat is High in Protein and what they recommend we eat.

I get anywhere from 100-200 Grams of Protein every day.

How long should I take off. I took a 2 week break from working out and never lost weight, so I went back to working out

between my Doctor and nutritinist we were told different things with Vitamins. So I am 7months after my surgery & I currently take; 2 Gummy multi vitamins 2x a day calcium citrate 1/day B-12 complex 1/day Potassium 1/day Vitamin A & D 1/day Fish Oil 1/day recently went to my Regular doctor he ran test & told him what I take(he is a former athlete and sports medicine Dr.), He told me you really cant not have to many vitamins in your system... All my test came back great.

I justed joined the forums, so I thought I would introduce myself. My Name is Eric. I live in Ohio & back in Sept 12' I have the Vertical Sleeve Surgery. I was 340 pounds the day of my surgery(49.5% BMI), & currently I wiegh 255 pounds (36.6 BMI), I am 31 years old, father of 2 teenage daughters. Its been a rough journey so far but looking forward to the furture.
