For me I find that when I am not eating set meals is where I struggle the most. It may be helpful to start back to 3 meals per day at set times to get a good idea of where you are at. We can definitely eat a lot more when we graze or dont eat until satisfied in one sitting. Sent from my LGUS992 using BariatricPal mobile app

So as the title states I became pregnant directly after my sleeve operation due to birth control failure. I just delived an healthy baby girl ( thank goodness)9 mos and 1 week post VSG. I took a break from all boards during my pregnancy as I needed to focus on having a healthy pregnancy vs weightloss. I have lost 75lbs thus far and have about 30lbs to goal. I am so ready to focus on my goal and get back on track. Although I lost weight all thru my pregnancy I was encouraged to have a higher carb intake and now find myself craving them everyday. I am thinking a few days of shakes may help me detox these carbs and get focus on the high protien low carb diet my body needs to make it to goal! Looking forward to getting to know some other folks on this journey. Sent from my LGUS992 using BariatricPal mobile app

I am lucky to have delived a healthy baby 3 weeks ago. The VSG Definetly impacted my fertility. Sent from my LGUS992 using BariatricPal mobile app

Thank you. I am anxious to get back on track and implement some exercise as soon as I am cleared. I need to get out of the habit of grazing back to meals and axe the carbs! Sent from my LGUS992 using BariatricPal mobile app

It seems to be there the majority of the time. I am in the process of eliminating all dairy as it seems to be a trigger or at least make it worse. Im also finding that suger in any amount seems to be an issue. I have a call into the surgeons office to see of they have any thoughts regarding these symptoms. Unfortunately they are not really great about follow up so may have to go the route of my PCP. Thank uou all for the responses. HW 276 SW 257 GW 165

Im about 2 months post sleeve 12/12. I had a good recovery and have been on an as tolerated diet since 5 weeks. I have lost 50 lbs including the preop diet. Latley ( past 1.5 weeks) my stomach is constantly upset feels like its churning. I also wake up at night due to the sick feeling. Otherwise I have no other issues. I have been taking my omeprazole as prescribed daily. I find that I can no longer tolerate dairy well and the protien shakes are making me feel nauseated. Has anyone else struggled with this? Any suggestions as to how to proceed as I feel that I am currently under eating and I do not want to damage my metabolism. HW 276 SW 257 GW 165

I have to say these taste awful so very sweet with that whey after taste. They are however super compact and I can get them down in about 3 swallows. I use them when I am struggling to get in my protien as they assure I hit my goal in an efficient manor. HW 276 SW 257 GW 165

I had to do this for 2 weeks following surgery twice a day. I did not notice any side wffects besides the brusing on my stomach. I have to say I was very happy when it was over. My Dr. does this as standard protocal following gastric surgery. HW 276 SW 257 GW 165

I use genpro pretty much daily. I usually add it low cal "cream" soups. It mixes really well and assures I reach my protein target. HW 276 SW 257 GW 165

You look fantastic Congrats! HW 276 SW 257 GW 165

Amazing! Great work. HW 276 SW 257 GW 165

I also had surgery 4 weeks ago and have lost 19 lbs. I noticed the weightloss slow down the 3rd and 4th week. Im guessing its just my body reacting to all the changes. As long as your protien and calories are on point, weight loss should resume. I also started exercising last week to help my metabolism along! Good luck. HW 276 SW 257 GW 165

My surgeon wants under 600 cals for the first 6 months. It seems so much lower then what most people are posting makes me kind of nervous. Sent from my LGUS992 using BariatricPal mobile app

I also had surgury the 12th. I have had alot of vomiting cant keep meds down and am struggling. I currently have a horrible headache and moderate incision pain. I keep having those "what did I do to my self" moments. Hoping we both feel better soon. Sent from my LGUS992 using BariatricPal mobile app
