Okay, so I have decided to get back on to boat and starting measuring my food and counting calories and everything again beings I am eating more. However, I am not sure how to count all calories when I make something more than just one thing such a chicken breast, or such. So if I make a mixed meal like a casserole or something of the sort. Any suggestions?

It is. But really need to count at least calories because I am usually on the really low end and I have already been threatened with a feeding tube at least a couple times

Possible to be anorexic after gastric bypass?? Help...
dominyks_mom replied to countryrae2001's topic in Food and Nutrition
It is possible to be anorexic after surgery. They say usually it goes away after a couple months. I was way before surgery. And it is a hard cycle to break. I am a year and a half out and I still am. However, my intake has gotten better on most days. But before I was only getting 100 to 300 calories a day and was threatened with a feeding tube.

Eating TOO LITTLE can cause a weight loss stall!
dominyks_mom replied to Creekimp13's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
That's been something we are trying to work on. I have never been much of an eater. I even had to verify with my surgeon if the surgery was right for me because of it. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Eating TOO LITTLE can cause a weight loss stall!
dominyks_mom replied to Creekimp13's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have to say this post is so true! I am now just over a year out from being sleeved. I was threatened a couple times to have a feeding tube inserted due to only eating 100 to 300 calories a day at 6 months to 9 months out. I got better and didn't have to get the feeding tube. However, I still only get about 700 calories a day. My starting weight was 257lbs and I am now but 144lbs. I am currently in a stall but still working on it with my team. We are slowly getting there! Definitely want to listen to them! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Starting BMI 40
dominyks_mom replied to thatblondechick's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 32 years old, had the sleeve done 10/21/16 with a starting weight of 256. I have lost 113lbs. I have some loose skin in my thighs and belly. But that is about it. I am still working on that. It just all depends on your skin and how you exercise! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Where are you 1 year post op?
dominyks_mom replied to breprih's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
High weight was 257 and now I am 147 as of today (surgery was 10/21/16). As far as food, water and protein intake go, I am not the best person to ask, I am still considered anorexic. I eat about 1 to 2 small meals a day. Just make sure you get what you need! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
I have a question, does anyone eat fat bombs? If so have you found that they help you at all with cravings or hunger control? I don't find myself hungry during the day and only eat about once a day. Sleeved: 10/21/16 SW: 257lbs CW: 151lbs Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I get that aspect. I lack calories massive. I am lucky if I hit 700 calories a day. My team is very well aware of this issue. I don't crave much of anything so to speak. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I am lactose intolerant. I can't handle much dairy and it got worse after being sleeved. I can barely withstand Greek yogurt anymore which I never really had a problem with. I have just started being able to sort of tolerate string cheese. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I tend to stay away from dairy due to being lactose intolerant. But I have found other things that I can still have. I am able to enjoy elk. Tried a little bit the other night and it was great. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Pinterest has a lot of different recipes of course. Which is where I got the idea to try them but I don't want to sabotage myself at the same time. I will probably ask my PA when I go in for my 1 year next month Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

They are meant to be keto and paleo friendly, low carb Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

So they are made out of coconut oil mostly. And you can make them sugar free with chocolate and other flavors Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

They actually take the time to listen to what you have to say and they have any resources you may need right there. I did have my surgery in Colorado last year, however, it can't hurt to try. I can give you any info on them if you would like. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Try the BMI clinic in salt lake. I transferred there from Colorado. They are great! Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

What Pain Meds did you get while in hospital/surgery center
dominyks_mom replied to Aginn10's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was given fentonal (iv) post sleeve, but never used it. Used toridol instead and left with liquid oxycodone that I never used either. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app -
Exactly what they said! You don't want to set yourself up based on someone else's loss. If you're concerned on the rate of your loss talk to your surgeon. I have lost 100lbs since my sleeve in October 2016. I am 32 years old at 5'3 and my starting weight was 257. Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app
