Any August 31st Sleevers?
gigidile replied to dorothy510's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I agree! It does help to know that other people are going through similar things! I'm happy too. It seems to be getting easier -

I agree with Inner Surfer Girl! The protein seems to drive the calories. -

I add peanut butter to oatmeal for a little extra protein and extra calories. Also, I put low fat cheddar with my scrambled egg. I just eat little bits, but often. I think I stalled because I wasn't getting enough food, plus I would just crash and get really tired. Also I eat Greek yogurt a lot. -

My nutrition is pretty good. I'm up to about 850 cal a day and around 70 g protein. I'm learning to eat more often. I really think my stall happened because I went into starvation mode, which surprised me, but I was only eating about 350 cal a day at the time. I'm 53, so my cycle is a thing of the past! I hope your first stall ends quickly! -

I'm good! I hit a stall a few weeks ago because I wasn't getting enough calories, but things are better now. I'm eating more often, but avoiding the scale. How are you doing? -
I like to add it to my oatmeal. Those are great prices, by the way!

No fat, and it really made my shakes taste great. It did add some calories, but also some protein.
-
I love it in my protein shakes! I'm only 2 weeks post op and still drink a lot of protein shakes!

Litzy, it's so thoughtful of you to offer that chicken broth! I wish I could jump on that offer, but I can't tolerate chicken broth these days. I really hope it goes to a good home. -

Hi, I was sleeved on August 31st too. My doc wants me to focus on staying hydrated-48-64 oz of fluid per day. I'm slowly adding protein shakes to this. So far, so good. I can't wait to weigh myself!!! -
