Almost 2mos out...25 Lost

[laurel80 2]

:tongue_smilie:

So I have been faithful to my diet and exercise. I get around 900 cals per day I get at least 60 grams of Protein and around 90 grams of carbs. I work out everyday for 30mins some days 1 hour (I started about 3 weeks out) I feel that I am not meeting my doctors expectations for my weight loss-- he was not impressed with my loss. I guess that has made me more motivated which is good. I started out pre-op at 208 then got down to 190 the day of surgery. Today I am 165 and I am okay with that...kinda everyone else with this surgery has me beat with 30 and 40 pounds at 2mos. I don't really restrict my carbs as much as some people do though. It can really over stress your body if you stay in Ketosis for too long..so I would rather be healthy and loose slower I guess but it just makes me jealous how fast others are loosing!! LOL:laugh0: Just so you know I only eat good carbs like fruits..and soon more veggies I can't wait to have salad again but I'm a little afraid of it still they say it is hard to digest. I have small amounts of whole wheat toast and today I had whole wheat pita bread with hummus yum! I also like rice! SUSHI IS A FAV!

Anyways I am just wanting opinions and I won't judge if you don't agree with the carb thing.. be honest :001_rolleyes:

I think your loss is great.... It is quite similar to mine... 25 pounds at 7 weeks. Keep up the good work. ALSO... be sure you are getting enough Protein in... sounds like you are eating a lot of other stuff.

I believe one it is the carbs I only get about 700 calories max oon a heavy day usually its between 500-600 a day. Now as for as 25 lbs beinglost you started at 190 a lot of the 40lbs and more is from the heavier people no offense I am heavier at 3mos I am down 22% off my body and around 8 weeks there is stalls you will be great

Same here, sleeved 6/8 and down about 27.5 lbs. Do what feels manageable for you. This is a long term change. For me, too much restriction sets me up for failure.

thanks guys! I do agree with the person who said "sounds like you are eatting alot of other stuff" yes ! I am! I will try harder to get in more like 70-80 grams of protien and see if that helps. I've been super tierd lately too! Thanks for the honesty!
