My doc said to count the protein shakes with the liquid for us newbies. My original surgery was the 19 and I'm down about 18 pounds. My body likes to hang on. -
You can do this and the weight will come off. Just focus on protein first. It really does help!! Good luck and we are all here for you.

Yea! Glad you are home!!

Hi Diane!! Welcome. This is a great place to be!! There are a lot of great people on the boards. I had my surgery about three weeks ago. Congrats on the 5k. That's great work. Are you doing any strength training? -

3Rd Day Post Op Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass

I have watched about 30 episodes of law an order. Lol!! It's kept me sane. Anyway, you are so right. I was lucky to have a lot of nurses that actually had the surgery. They were so helpful!! Others were in the process. Nicky, glad to hear you are progressing. :-) -
Kay, welcome! This forum is an awesome place for help and support! Everyone here is so helpful. I wish you the best of luck. Also, don't be afraid to ask any question!!

Nice job! Just take it slow!!! -
Well I have been pondering this too. The good thing is one ounce of chicken (about 2 tablespoons) is 7 grams of protein so it adds up. I'm thinking we will be on shakes for a while. I've had conversations with my nut and surgeon and they agreed. It's a slow process of transitioning between the shakes to the real food.

I'm in the same boat. I gained 10 pounds with my two surgeries. I've lost that and about 15 more but I'm now standing still. I'm trying to be positive as well. -

Yup! Forgot My Lunch Box At Home!
worm2872 replied to Stephanie's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow glad to hear the egg is working so far! Sheetz also has SF finger jello that's 9 grams of protein in the bag. I'm trying chicken today. -
You can do this!!! Yes the liquid diet is very hard but it will be worth it. You have come so far already! I'm a big chicken and I'm terrified of failing but I'm taking one day at a time. My RNY was on the 19th and I've had some hiccups but its getting better!

Fat Calories In My New Diet Plan. Help!
worm2872 replied to hannahlouolson's topic in Food and Nutrition
Protein protein protein. I used to fluff this off but there is a big difference. Over the past two years I have realized carbs slow my weight lost down. I mean the "bad" carbs. Rice, pasta, potatoes, bread, etc. I lose when I'm over 70 grams per day. Good luck.
