Hello, I had Gastric Bypass on November 23, 2021. I've lost 55 lbs since then and I'm quite proud of that... Is that a normal amount to lose? I've been walking every day and doing yoga when I can... I bought an elliptical but I dont use it as often as I would like.... I keep plateauing. I lost 5 lbs two weeks ago while I was traveling and then now im plateauing again My mom says its because I'm eating English muffin (up to one per day) with cream cheese.... or quesadilla... She says im not getting good enough protein in. I still can't eat many things without vomiting still so I feel I dont have many options. What do you eat? I do also have shrimp sometimes after work or scallops... I can eat out having like kungpao chicken... broth soup... mussels/clams.... but at home I am having a hard time determining good food. 😕 Thank you B

thank you for so many great tips! i have started doing half a english muffin and yes i’ve been adding deli meat. i also picked up some quest protein bars last week i really appreciate your input. thank you!!!

I looked at my hummus in the fridge and it only has like 1g of protein! not enough

i am making turkey chili today, and made some tuna salad earlier. i have Perfect Bars in almond butter. those are so great!

Yes I can and we just bought some good hummus yesterday I will start using it more. Thank you!!!

Thank you for reminding me I was making chili for a good stretch there and fell off the wagon so I am making more chili today as meal prep for the week. I also bought some tuna and protein bars I like. it’s constant work! congrats on your weight loss so far we are surgery day buddies!

Hello, I have some BariatricAdvantage vitamins I am looking to trade for protein. The vitamins don’t sit well in my stomach and I just ordered capsules from BariatricPal, which will arrive real soon. I have about 1/3-1/2 a container of the chewable Advanced Multi EA and about 30-40 chewable calcium citrate chewy bites in assorted sweet flavors (chocolate, pb chocolate, coconut, and caramel) seeking premier proteins in caramel or cinnamon or strawberry, and open to other offers thank you!

thank you. i only vomit sometimes… i’ve become extremely particular but finding things that don’t cause it make me not want to be too experimental. i have my three month doctor appt next monday.
