So I have definitely been more active since surgery but not consistent. I started the Insanity workouts 11 days ago but have yet to lose a pound which is hard to believe if you have seen those workouts.

My name is Barbara. I had a sleeve gastrectomy done March 2012. Since that date I have lost 35 lbs. Of course I feel much better, however I am quite aways from my goal weight. I have had no problems with my surgery, I can eat anything but I'm hungry all of the time. My surgical group hasn't given any reason why this is happening & doesn't seem concerned so I have consulted with a 2nd bariatric specialist. He sent me for an upper GI to evaluate my sleeve, thinking maybe it is too large. I'm exercising every day & trying my best to eat what I'm supposed to. Just wondering if anyone else has had the same issues?

I was just sitting here re-reading info & decided I need more dense meat for sure. I used to drink so much water pre-surgery & now I don't have a desire to drink but I need to try. Waiting for results still.

I had problems with hairloss for a dhort time. I think it's unavoidable but I took biotin 5000mcg daily & it helped

I am hungry all of the time so I eat about every 2 hours but I eat like greek yogurt, fruit, egg whites, lean ham, beef jerky

I try to stick to about 1200 calories/day. I still drink protein shakes to make sure I get about 100 grams of protein/day. Of course I eat what I'm not supposed to at times but 90% of the time I eat mostly protein foods & I have cut the carbs. I drink around 40-60 ounces of water/day. I'm just so frustrated because I do what I'm supposed to do yet I don't lose weight.
