I had surgery on 9/29/16 so 4 weeks out today. I lost 5 lbs the week before surgery and now in total I have lost 12lbs since surgery. Im hitting at least 60g of Protein sometimes more, 40-50oz of Water and trying to improve on that. In general I'm trying to hit below 50g carbs a day but to be honest i have had sugary stuff this week because of my bday. Cals are btw 900-1200. Everything goes down fine, no pain & im on softer foods. I feel like it should be coming off faster. My surgery weight was 252 & I'm currently 240. Any thoughts guys?

Ok yea I really need to reign it in. The truth is that because im eating food without any issues i am definitely giving into mental hunger, im def not actually hungry. Im gonna try to cut down Snacks and cals and up Water, thank you! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

My sleeve seems to be healing fast and just really tolerating food fine. I usually have yogurt for Breakfast, a premier Protein shake in then chili or some kind of soft meat, Beans for lunch And similar for dinner. I will also have protein based Snacks like cheese or cottage cheese and sometimes a little veggies. I should probably not snack so much :/ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi, I'm late coming upon this post but Im in Puyallup. Having sleeve 9/29 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi! Im scheduled for sleeve 9/29/16, in a week. Im nervous/excited. My surgeon doesnt require a pre-op liquid diet. Im feeling weird about that like maybe i should go ahead and do liquids the week prior anyway :-/. I would love to meet and follow along with some people having surgery around sept/oct to share our journey and support eachother.
