Any Other Late March Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on March 27, 2012 and im down 66lbs since surgery date... however that is deffinately due to the fact that I barely eat at all. I have tried hard boiled eggs (get about 1/2 of the white down and I'm done), mashed potatoes (can have a spoon full or two), I'll snack on some nuts or apple slices, maybe am able to have 3 or 4 very tiny bites of meat before I have no desire to eat any more... I just drink, I drink a lot of green tea, a little fruit juice, the occasional 4-3 ounces of a Protein Shake before im sick of it, a little coffee (iced)... oh and i had 2 nachos with cheese for lunch the other day... yes 2 nacho chips dipped in melted cheese. I read all these forums about people eating way more then me and I just dont understand what my problem is... am I the only one?

ps. I've told my doctor and all he says is keep trying, people are diffrent, try a new food each week.... so not helpful.

I was sleeved on March 12. I am down 50 high weight was 235. I am able to eat a variety of things but usually only 2 ounces of each thing. I had a rough time about 2 weeks ago with digestion and my nutritionist suggested going back to soft foods for 2 to 3 days and it worked I was able to start eating again. Itsnt the exact same problem but try going back to basics and see how your sleeve responds. Good luck

I was sleeved 3/6 and as of today am down 75 pounds. I eat whatever I want but in small quantities. I can eat 4 or 5 oz of met at a time. I track everything I eat and drink on myfitnesspal.com. I eat around 1000 calories a day, get in about 90 grams of Protein and walk on my treadmill for 25 - 35 minutes almost every day.

I was sleeved March 20 and down 83 lbs. I am still not meeting my daily protein/liquid goals but I feel like I eat more than the recommended one to two ounces. I am more like 2-4. My nutritionist told me to stick with 75 grams of Protein, 60-70 carbs, 48-64 ounces of Water and 60 min of cardio everyday. It seems like a lot but I'll do what I can to stick to the program.

90 grams of Protein == greek yogurt & starbucks frap for breakfast(15), can of tuna or rolled up ham lunch meat and cheese for lunch(15 - 20), a Premier Protein shake either as a mid afternoon snack or after I exercise(30) and 3 - 4 oz of chicken or fish for dinner(21 - 28) and sometimes a glass of 1% milk (8)

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
