How fast are y'all losing weight? I know we are all different and will lose at different rates. I'm just curious.

Im a slow loser. Sleeved 12/5, down 57 pounds including pre-op diet. As long as the scale goes down, Im happy. My surgery weight was 222. Im glad I dont compare myself to others or else Id be very disappointed.

started with a bunch of walking, then added circuit training style workout. 30 minutes, 5 days a week.

Breakfast is my version of a Protein shake which is more of a cappucino. 16oz coffee, 1.5 oz skim milk, 1 heaping scoop of body fortress Cookies and cream Protein powder. altogether about 140-160 calories 28ish grams Protein.< /p>

when i have actual food for Breakfast, either a monte cristo made with flatbread, deli ham and turkey, thin swiss, and a dab of sf maple Syrup. (there's more to it, but, thats the main stuff) less than 300 calories, more than 15 grams protein.

or the http://dashingdish.com/recipe/giant-one-minute-breakfast-cookie/'>http://dashingdish.com/recipe/giant-one-minute-breakfast-cookie/ holy mother of all things awesome! less than 200 calories, about 14g protein. i don't put it on a plate, i warm it in the bowl, it tastes like a warmed up nobake cookie! mmmmmm

lunch is typically a 1.5 cup serving of leftovers.

dinner is usually something that comes from one of these sites. http://www.emilybites.com/ or http://bariatricfoodie.blogspot.com/ or http://dashingdish.com/

i do have high protein Snacks from time to time. i also carry Protein Bars in case i work late, or get stuck somewhere so that i don't make bad choices. the best Protein Bars i have found so far and the only ones that i feel taste good AND have enough nutritional value (protein vs calories vs crap) are the pure protein bars found at walmart/kroger/ect. and the advobars from advocare.

hope this was helpful.

good luck in your journey!
