Happy for all others success.[/quote'] We will all lose differently. Don't give up. I found eating avocado once a day helped boost my weight loss. Lots of Water and Gatorade, too.

ChristineR 128 Posted July 3, 2013 Wow, everyone is amazing, I haven't seem to have been able to lose as fast as most of you, but I'm moving along! I was sleeved April 10th, and I am at 41 pounds lost. I didn't do any pre-op dieting, so this is just all since surgery. I just really over the last two weeks have nailed down how to get all my Protein in and my Water and have started back at the gym. I include my preop diet so really it's only 41 pounds via surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cortneyyy 0 Posted July 3, 2013 Nah I think may have you beat!

Don't forget your protein![/quote'] I'm getting in 7-8 liquids a day and my NUT raised my Protein to 75-80, max 100. I'm averaging low nineties for almost two weeks . I am also exercising despite the pain nearly everyday. I don't know what to else to do except this week I lower my calories from 900 to under 600. Get on scale tomorrow for mid week weight. But I only record weight on Mondays. This Monday will be 11 weeks. 4/22. Hope down at least more than 2lbs. Thanks for the response !

Pre op 266 Sw 266 Cw 234 I tend to lose more weight when I up my calories rather than reduce them. I would say I average 650 to 900 a day. Although there are days when I'm not very hungry I do have these days where I feel the need to eat. I end up in the 900 range of calories but then I suddenly drop a few pounds. I guess it's my body's way of compensating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarawillrockit2013! 4 Posted July 4, 2013 Sleeved 4-15 I just saw my previous post from a while ago. Iam now down 55 pounds! I still cannot stand protien shakes. I was actually getting physically sick.. I would vomit them(no matter what brand I tried) and then I would get violent shakes and get dizzy. I'm fine unless I try to drink one. This sucks bc I have been having a hard time the last couple weeks getting all my Protein in from foods. I need 60grams a day. Other wise I have been doing good and feeling good. I need to get into a regular exercise routine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
