      I'm 7 weeks post bypass, my Doc and Nut did not give a calorie limit, they just said 60 to 80 grams of protein, 100 grams of carbs, and 30 grams of fats, with at least 10 grams of good fat being consumed at one meal. I am getting in 60 to 70 grams of protein a day, but rarely meet the carb and fats limits. Nut says that ok for now, to just concentrate on the good dense proteins.

      don't beat yourself up over it, we all have to fight the demons from our past and love for food, I only lost 1 lb this week and I think it's cause I found that I am tolerating more carbs and I need to back away from them!!!

    3. pinky4652

      pinky4652

      yeah i deff. had a moment they barely put any meat on it so not much to save.. had to check myself today i cant make that mistake again needless to say the bread got stuck and i was in pain all night so liquids today and hope for a better day tomorrow .. and yes carbs are crazy for me too! i love i can take a little and put the rest away but i know there is other food i should be eating that would benefit me more!

      So what is this chicken thing that you eat??? I am always looking for new ways of getting in my protein!!! I am restricted to what I eat and how much, I have a hard time with a lot. and getting hungry quick is definitely not an issue I have!!! I am never hungry???

    same problem i had was finding Protein to be honest i failed at protein i was sleeved in april 2nd and have yet to finish a Protein Drink since before my surgery i know what i can and cannot tollerate i throw in an extra snack after you get to eat chicken and such i recomend weight watchers brand its got 32 grams per chicken brest there 5oz i can eat 3 1/2 and the rest is my snack so if protein is a problem i planned around the drinks and shakes i just cannot force myself to drink something that gives me a headache or makes me feel sick

    4 weeks post op & scale isn't decreasing

    pinky4652 replied to tamalyn's topic in The Lounge

    ur body is going threw a major change allow it time to adjust and go back to normal.... i went threw a stall from week 3- week 6 it was horrible and i struggled the first week to try to accept that i wasnt doing anything wrong and it was hard to look past the scale not moving 15lbs is the average weight loss per month from what my surgeon told me so for you to loose 26lb in 2 weeks thats amazing!!!.... dont stress and put the scale up for a few more weeks

    pinky4652 replied to beachplum's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums

    i was sleeved 2 months ago today and about a week to 1 month out i was depressed it was due to the fact i missed food and being on liquids took that away after my diet progressed and was able to eat soft food it did in fact go away and now im happy as ever it is just a phase so be strong gum helped me alot since it was something to chew

    pinky4652 replied to SingleMom33's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

  15. pinky4652
    u do what is best for you and your health!! i had one of my doctors who was aganst it too... well i had surgery in april and i still see that doctor so they wont let you go if you choose a choice for yourself
  16. pinky4652
    i was sleeved april 2nd but started this whole process july of 2013 i had 6month NUT diet X_X it was all worth it and i got 1 cheat day a week before surgery so it helped.... dont make a meal like its ur last. one day you will get to eat it again...!! it will only hurt u to do that and add on more pounds!! i gained 5lb the day i had my cheat diet and was sick cus i went overboard!

    After surgery u will regret cheating the diet so that's why they make u go threw this before u have to be strong and choose ur life over food.... it's just food it's not going anywhere and one day u may be able to have it again but u didn't go threw all the pre op crap to let sweets ruin it... stay strong
