4 Weeks Out And Need Advice

[sleeve523 2]

I am 4 weeks post- op and I am just seeing a 6 pounds weight loss. I have started to walk at least 5 times each week and get more Protein in. However, it seems like I am only doing protein. Should I try to include other foods as well. I noticed that when I reduced my carbs as well it made a difference. Any suggestions on food? What are some other things I need to be aware of. It is hard for me to go to the restroom.

Have you talked to your nutritionist about this? They can look at what you are eating and give you guidance.

Are you losing inches though?? Go back to basics, shakes and mushies. Make sure you are adding Fiber to your drinks. I use unflavored Metamucil, actually Publix generic. It seems to help me alot.

Best of luck =)

I would definitely talk with your nut. I would also try to increase your Protein a little a this point and read the label of your protein to check on carbs. You are losing and that's great so keep it up, it will get better for you. I take colace a couple times a week and it's more effective for me than Fiber.
