How much are you able to eat 1 month out?
samskiles posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Tomorrow will be 1 month out for me and I feel like I'm always starving! I am eating every 3 hours and only eating about 4 oz but I know I could eat more. Here is what a typical day looks like: B: Premier Protein shake or Turkey Sausage (3 links) S: String cheese or Babybel Cheese L: 4 oz of protein and veggies S: Greek yogurt or cottage cheese D: 4 oz of protein and veggie I feel like I'm eating too much and the scale hasn't moved in over a week!! Suggestions please! I am getting so discouraged! -

Awesome!! -
Same clothes or not, I can tell in my face! I'm proud of myself for that alone! Thanks everyone!

Awesome job!! Can I ask what your weight loss looked like as far as how much you lost when? I'm 6 weeks out and down about 30 pounds. I feel like I'm slower on losing them most. Suggestions?

I added you both!

Any other single moms in the Dallas area? I'm 32, 6 weeks post-op and have a 9 and 4 year old. Would love to meet some other mamas!

You're such an inspiration and I'm so proud of your dedication!! I wish I could give you a hug!! I'm only six weeks out and started at 330. I'm just under 300 now and eve though it's hard I'm not giving up! Thank you for sharing your story! I needed to hear this tonight! ❤️

I'm 5"9 and I'm down 35 pounds. I'm six weeks out. This before pic was right before the pre-op diet and the after pic was taken last night. I still have a ways to go.

Kind of worried about little restriction
samskiles replied to Thinside's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I try and prep meals the night before but sometimes I'm too tired. Those are the days I typically eat more calories so it really makes a difference. -
I haven't had much success this week with the scale so I decided to take some pics and compare to before surgery!! I can see a difference and it feels so good!!!! Just wanted to share in case anybody else is having scale issues. Try taking pics!!

Thank you! Thanks!

I also wanted to add that some days are harder then others. Some days I want to eat everything and I do consume up to 1200 calories but it's protein rich foods. My dr has been on board with everything I am doing so I think it's ok if some days you eat more! -

I'm in the same boat and I'm also 6 weeks out. I started eating slower and waiting a minute in between bites and this helped me get fuller faster. I also pre-measure my meals and only allow myself to eat about 4 oz at a time. This is a typical day for me: B: 3 turkey sausage links or protein shake S: string cheese L: 4 oz of lunch meat and cheese or 4 oz of chicken with a veggie S: Cottage cheese or protein shake D: 4 oz of chicken or fish and veggie I also drink 60-80 oz of water in between. -

You are beautiful and look great (skin and all)! So motivating for me as we started out close to the same weight. I'm only 6 weeks out though!! ❤️ -

09/29 Surgery at Dallas Medical Center with Dr Fox
samskiles replied to ellie123's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Dr. Fox did my band. I just had my band removed and sleeve surgery Aug 11 thru the Nicholson clinic. If I could go back I wouldn't have went thru Fox. He didn't seem to care about my struggles or weight loss. I love the Nicholson clinic. Check them out. I now have Dr. Carlton. He is amazing and his staff care!! -
It feels so good! I still have a long way to go but this is great motivation!! Thank you!

300

I started at 330 and the day of surgery I weighed 317. I'm a little over one month out and weigh 298. I'm losing slower than I thought I would but I'm losing.

How much are you able to eat 1 month out?

I'm following my doctors orders I just don't ever feel like I'm getting full. I will be hungry 30 minutes after I eat! -
