  1. Just curious how many calories people are taking in at 6 months post op.
  2. Are you making sure to not drink 30 min before/after eating? I notice when I follow that rule I feel full longer
  3. Great results! What has your diet and exercise plan looked like? I was sleeved a few weeks after you and only down about 1/2 as much. Liking for some inspiration!

    Stall advice

    I'm so frustrated. I was sleeved 7/21. I lost 14 lbs in preop then 26 post surgery. So, I was 285 SW...7/21. I was 249 on 8/31. So, I was ok with that even though it was a little slow. Since that, I lost 5 lbs, put 2 back on and stayed at 247 for a week now. That's only 3 lbs in almost a month! ! And why would I gain? ! I track in my fitness pal daily. I have 70-85 grams protein/800 calories/under 50 carbs / all my vitamins/ 64+oz Water and work out 3x a week. I don't know what else I could be doing. I really feel like I'm done losing and this is as far as I'll get. I am feeling very depressed about it. Any helpful tips, info, anything?

    I'm in! CW 248 GW 235
  6. I seem to be stuck at about 400 calories a day no matter how hard I try. (I get 60-80 grams of protein though) I can't seem to eat more than about 4 bites. My dr wants me to 800 before I can work out and I'm very anxious to work out. Any tips on getting calories up?
  7. I'm one month out and I feel nauseous 80% of the time. Nothing sounds good and I really don't want to eat, ever. I force myself to eat but it's typically a Protein bar, and even then I can barely finish 1/2. I still drink most of my protein, and am getting usually 70 grams a day, however, I only get about 300 ish calories sometimes up to 450. It's not the food that makes me feel sick, it's just all the time. I actually hate having to eat bcs i never feel hungry and always feel sick. . It's quite miserable. Anyone experience this? Does it go away?

    Anyone from the AZ?

    7/21 that's awesome! How much have you lost? For me pre liquid diet 285 SW 271 CW 263 I feel like I've been a little bit of a,slow loser but overall still happy worth my decision

    I'm 2 1/2 weeks out. Dr Juarez did mine too. Great surgeon!
  10. For those that I have seen have lost like 60 ,70 even more in a year, did you lose quick since day one? Or did it just kick in one day? I am one week post tomorrow which I know is still really really, but I'm only down 1lb. I've seen several others who are already down 10+ by now. Just wondering if this is an indication I'll be a slow loser.
  11. I'm still early preop but I've been pinning recipes on pinterest life crazy for future use. I know I won't be doing 3 Protein shakes forever. I am curious what a meal plan with 80 g looks like. Seems like you'd have to always have at least one Protein shake per day to come close since our quantity of food is so little.
  12. Ty! Today has been a little better. So far about 14 oz protein shake and 16 oz of water. Trying to get a little more protein shake in today. I'm on full liquids for 3 weeks.
