Oct 8th check in

Had a nice 3.4lbs loss this week! Yeah!!!!!!!!! Just now starting not to have so much nausea when I eat dense Protein. Still using Protein drinks to up my levels. Saw my Bari this week and he is very happy with my progress. Said I was right on target and to keep up the good work. He said I was his lowest BMI patient he had ever performed the procedure on and that he was looking forward to seeing me to find out how I was doing. Now he is considering getting the sleeve done cuz he has now hit an obese rating on BMI. Interesting huh?

Today the family is going for a 4 hour horseback ride so I will get my excercise in that way. And now that I am healed up from my falls I can start walking again too.

Hope everyone has a great week!

Hey Mama!! My loss was 3.4 this week too - as you know from MFP! I have had ups and downs this week, some days feeling like it was a turning point and others not so much. Last night I had prime rib at Texas Roadhouse - YUM! I ate about 3 oz I believe and it was so tender and juicy - really hit the spot and probably the most I have eaten since my sleeve. So far today no ill side affects like bloating so hoping for the best!! Send prayers this is my turn around week!!

Good morning friends! I weighed in at 232.8 lbs this am, which puts me down 3.1 lbs this week! This is a lot for me, I am a slow loser, but at least I'm losing. I feel great, no issues, so I am not complaining. Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

I only lost 0.6 this week and have been losing VERY slowly the last few weeks. I'm feeling kind of discouraged and hope that I'm not done losing.

Hang in there Tarada! Your will body will come back around. Its not over yet! We are here for you as you go thru this temporary slow down. What is your calorie intake been? Remember eating too few calories will slow down weight loss too. I know for me at this stage it is hard to get all the calories in some days cuz of sour stomach.

We with ya sister!

I lost another 2.4 pounds this week. It didnt show up until the weekend. I stayed the same hovering around 200 or 199 all week. Finally, I dropped to 197.8 saturday and have stayed there since. Im sorry I am late posting this! Good luck girls!

Only 1.6 lbs lost for me this week... I did a lot of exercise - running two days and then doing a lot of biking also so hopefully the small loss is because I am gaining muscle. Hope everyone has a great week!

Hi everyone! I'm checking in REALLY late but I was down 6 pounds this week!!!! what the heck??? I don't know what I did differently but I'm really stoked about it. Hope everyone has a great week.

Thinking about it though.... I don't think I did anything different. I keep track of everything on MyFitnessPal and this week looks the same as all the others. Go figure.

No weight loss at all this week.... pms? Water retention?

I walked /ran a 5 k Saturday and did circuit training twice this weeek. kept calories to 550 average and Not a pound gone....

[MeMeMEEE 206]

Sounds like you need to add some calories with your exercise! I am supposed to be eating 800-1000 and am lucky to get in 400 and I don't even have the energy to exercise

How do I add more calories? Is I eat more then 3 to 4 tablespoons I throw up. So I eat mainly Protein and veggies... Some fruits have crept in... Applesauce, bananas, watermelon and the like. I know the have more calories but I love them. Absolutely no bread or rice of any kind. Kind of baffled.... Oh well off to dance classes..... My 1st. I hope it is fun!

Almonds are high in Protein and calories. They would help you add some in and still be on your diet. cheese is a good way as well.

October 8th was my 1 year sleeve anniversary so I just wanted to respond and give you all a little update. Next year at this time you will be so skinny! Keep on keeping on your plans! Almonds are great to have as are cheese. I keep a little package of almonds in my purse along with beef Jerky. Stalls will happen to the previous poster. Dont' up your calories just keep on keeping on! I stall 3 weeks a month then lose about 5lbs in one week. You will get there. THIS WILL WORK!

Thanks for the advice! I am still working out and walking alternately. I started back on the Isopure Saturday as well, still no weight loss now for 3 1/2 weeks, though my bras are falling off...... So strange.
