I have never had any issues with getting it from just food when i plan in advance.

Guys only , and women only take over the thread hahaha , reverse psychology I need a laugh big time with how my day is going lol anyone feel free to tell a joke.

Your doing awsome whats yoru daily meal plan like/

No apologies needed! thought my computer was messing with me

ERM.. My problem is not sleeve related.. Although they spoke to my surgeon who wants me to do a barium swollow at some point just incase. They did find something unfortunately. I'm in shock right now. I have to have a biopsy and some other things. Thanks anyway for your support. Will let the thread die now as its now known not to be the sleeve.

I'm confused. This box is empty for me and no message inside.

What are you confused about ? My surgeons team doesn't want me to count either so not unheard of I just prefer to sometimes. Also I like to make sure I eat no more then 4 ounce so even if I don't save the data on what I'm eaten I'd just weigh 4 ounces out. 3 ounce protein 1 ounce veg. What sort of food are you eating.

Can I ask what your food plan usually looks like? I don't have to track on my plan. I usually just weigh 4 ounces 3 ounce protein 1 ounce veg. But this last couple of weeks I started tracking. And gone from 213 to 205 in about a week and half. Its so cool you don't need to track. How far out are you and may I ask your loss so far if that's not a rude question.

Wow amazing. Congrats. How do you manage 330 in three meals. Can I have an idea what the plan is of food.

Thank you so much Jesse and berry. Means a lot !

Thank you for asking woo. I'm extremely tired. I hope they do the ct scan today so I can see what's up. Im staying positive though. And just want to be home

Thank you for asking mama. I'm exhausted. I saw the surgeon and he said my CRP is 98 it was 1 two weeks ago. This shows infection or inflammation. I had one dose of antibiotics then they decided to stop the antibiotics till a CT scan had been done. He thinks my sleeve could be inflamed also . its just speculation right now. Its 4.37am I'm on my third bag of fluid. And on strong pain meds. I'm so tired . I told them after all this I hope I don't develop a complex about eating. As even sipping water is not comfortable. keeping positive

No one said there was any harm in asking. We have all had the surgery and obvcourse was nervous to. Post of there will be many excuses for wanting to go of plan. But you need to make sure your in the right frame of mind for this. It doesn't matter if someone else had wine 2 days before surgery and was well doesn't mean it will be the same case for you.. But I don't think many people would consider being that risky. Which is why I said you really need to look into why your mind didn't want a nice relaxing bath to relax instead of going of plan. I wasn't judging you but some of us occasionally indulge in self sabotaging behavior without realising. I'm sure you were aware it is quite huge to risk your whole surgery over wine. Second question. I haven't lost 50lbs so can't answer but. Follow what your surgeon suggests for excersise. I'm 30+ lbs down in 11 weeks no excersise yet

The question is why ? Why do you want to this close? Is red wine on your pre op plan ? No. So why would anyone here advice you to go against your plan. You haven't even started yet. And your already wanting to not listen to your plan.

Lol your that desperate for two Glasses of wine you'd have it 3 days before surgery? Yikes. Good luck with your journey. Sounds like it will be an interesting one.

Thank you so much. I've been admitted to hospital now.

One month in and "only" lost 25lbs. That is a substantial amount. I'd start with balancing your expectation with something more realistic.. It took the first two months of constant irritation and anger when I stalled to make me realise its not always going to happen fast 7 weeks!!! No movement. Then suddenly no change losing 5lbs in a week. Take a deep breath and have a look around. "I should have lost more " How do you know have you done this before? It happens to us all and Its so discouraging. But normal. Keep hitting your protein and water goals.. Many things can contribute to the scale not moving but also your body has to catch up. You will get there. What are your stats and what are you eating.

I agree there is no dumb question. But do you know some people are starting of 600lbs and can lose a hell of alot first week. So try not to compare.

How many calories are you eating a day? Your surgery was April this year. ? And you had a bmi of 29 on day of surgery. Weldone. But generally people who have surgery are not eating 1,400 cals a couple months in from what I've seen.

How far out are you ? Don't eat less than your BMR? A lot of us as sleeve paitents can't get in more than 800 cals for a long time. Which I would assume is a lot less than what you are recommending. That we have been told by our surgeons team. Is this link showing what sleeve patients should eat ? That tdee calculator is for what a person who isn't sleeved should eat. .. Confusing. I'm sure it will help someone. My bmr 1,400 thanks for the advice but I won't be going against my surgeon and eating that much. Many people have success following their instruction.

Thank you. Today I am suffering. Chills . random toilet explosion when I've eaten nothing. Feeling sick. Can't eat barely or drink. I've even cried its horrible. I am away with my kids so can't go er today. I have to drive home in the morning . drop them wrh my mum then go to the emergency room. This is horrible. I've never experienced anything like this. I've posted about my chills and lack of apetite had no idea it was about to be a nightmare.

14lbs in 7 days.. Slow loser ? Lol. Youl get a huge shock when you don't lose a lb for weeks. As it happens to most of us. You ever lost 14lbs in 7 days before and considered it slow ? I wonder how that thought came to you. Were you expecting to lose 50lbs in 7 days? What would be considered not slow. Just curious myself.

Yes very normal. It happens. While it's frustrating not much can be done. 5 miles a day. Wow . Weldone. My weight drops when I don't do much exercises lol but for health your doing the right thing . are you reaching protein and water goals.?

Hope you go doctors soon. Feel better.

Like it has for me right now. I'm in agony!
