I've done great since surgery in May but I haven't lost any weight in two weeks. I'm down 115 lbs but now the scale has stopped. I did add some pasta once a week but zero bread. I'm having about 750 calories per day and walking about 2 miles every am. Any suggestions?

mtwtvl71 replied to cindyvirden.com's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I am 3 1/2 months post RNY. I feel wonderful and have lost 100LBS since the liquid diet phase. I'm eating about 700 calories a day and walking 2 miles 5 days a week. I feel great don't crave sweets. I can't eat bread, crust or anything similar. It makes me sick...I also need to cut up my meat into tiny bit size chunks. Other then that I LOVE IT! I wouldn't change it a bit. I'v very very pleased with my progress so far and i feel 100%. Good luck on your decision...I highly reccommend the RNY! -

Today is a great day! Today I hit the 100lbs mark. I had my RNY on May 12th and as of my weight in today I've lost 100LBS. That is just over 3 months time. I'm doing great and eating healthy every day. I'm at around 700 calories per day and walk 2 miles every morning 5 days a week. I've just started to tone and lift light weights at the gym. I feel great and can't believe that i fit into an x-large shirt now..I was 3/4XL before. THis is the best decision I've made and have 0 regrets. I feel great and have so much more energy. -
Extreme fatigue and low energy
mtwtvl71 replied to Sherbear911's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I hear you. I'm two months out and feel much better. It has gotten better. -
I think it was just a healing process. I'm doing good now but struggle getting. 80 grams of protein in but am trying. I'm at 700 calories a day and 60grms of protein.

I have a cup a day. No issues at all.

Does anyone have snacks
mtwtvl71 replied to msshellg's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When did you start popcorn? I'm a little over 2 months RNY. I LOVE POPCORN FOR THE CRUNCH. -
I'm 6 weeks out and am FINALLY able to work out. My energy has finally come back. I took my recovery 1 day at a time. Some days were ok and others I could barley get out of bed. Just listen to your body. Best of luck. Healing is a process.

4 weeks out and down 54 lbs
mtwtvl71 replied to mtwtvl71's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I made chicken salad chopped very fine and used fat free ranch dressing instead of Mayo. It was very good. You can add a little chicken stock to it also. Also egg salad chopped very fine with onion powder. I added strawberry protein powder to my yogurt and added it to SF pudding too. Also made chili then used a hand blender to make it smooth. It was so nice to eat something with flavor. Of course cottage cheese and applesauce no sugar added is good too. -
Went to the Dr today and in the 200s now. Doing good. Tried steak yesterday and it didn't go we'll. got very sick. Will wait a few weeks and try it again. But otherwise all is good. So glad I had RNY.

That is awesome.

I've been struggling with energy the last few days. I'm getting protein in and walking at the gym. Yesterday I was do tired I could hardly walk. Doing better today. I guess it's all in the healing process. I did add carbs to my diet. I had mashed potatoes last night and 1/2 banana this am. Maybe that will help. Any suggestions?
