EddiesAngel 14 Posted August 13, 2013 Give yourself a couple weeks and you wont recognize yourself in the mirror. ...Congrats My fiancé took my two week ost op picks yesterday and I compared them to my pre op pics and your right it really is amazing the change that I saw. The weight loss for me I see in my face and neck as well as my legs, and rear end and hips. It's amazing what I couldn't see in the mirror I could see in the pics, now I know why they want you to take lots of them. It made me feel good.

kjordan83 65 Posted August 24, 2013 July FIRST sleevers.... since we were sleeved on the same day, I'd like to know how many calories you are aiming it each day? My NUT wouldn't give me a number to focus on. I NEED to have a daily personal goal!!! I'm currently set at 700 on MFP, but I go over that almost every day! Please give me some guidance!

baseballbaby 7 Posted August 24, 2013 I too set my MFP goal to 700. Anytime I go over it i also get a lot more Protein 80-100 grams, so I think that's more important than the extra calories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tracy2801 25 Posted August 29, 2013 My Nut told me 800 calories. I am also on myfitnesspal as well. It does help keep you aware of what your putting in your body. Somethings I could eat previously can't anymore tomatoes and certain types of fruit don't settle well. My hate for fish has turned into a like for fish. Easiest to eat and less calories but still getting Protein in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenni9579 18 Posted August 29, 2013 I'm almost 6 weeks out and I was wondering about weight lifting because I'd like to start toning. At what point did you guys add this to your workout? My doc said 8 weeks but I feel like I'm ready now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
