March sleeves, what does a day of eating look like for you? I have a Protein bar for Breakfast. Fat free hot dog w no bun and low fat cheese stick for lunch. But I am hungry by 2 pm. I snack on cherub tomatoes and yogurt dip. dinner varies greatly. Sometimes i eat a single cheese enchilada. Or a grilled chicken breast. But have only lost forty pounds. Compared to y'all, I am way behind. Do u know how many grams of Protein u get each day? Do u track calories at all?

I'm feeling discouraged. 40 pounds down is ok in 5 months. But, nothing huge. You guys are doing great! Congrats!

It depends on the day for me. I am not as strict as some.

Today breakfast was a vanilla premier rtd Protein shake and a yoplait 100 greek yogurt.

lunch was a small homemade chicken taco. Lots of chicken and lettuce a bit of cheese and small flour tortilla with salsa.

Snack was 1/2 cup of fat free ice cream.

dinner tonite is a stuffed green pepper. I should have leftovers for lunch on tuesday.

I will probably have a plum for snack tonite.

You cant judge yourself by what others have done or are doing. You are you.

My diet is probably carb heavy for some, but I walk 2 miles 5 days a week and on weekends it can be 3 miles with a large dog and a pulling dog. At the same time. Some resistance work there :-)

I do dance videos a couple nights a week, choosing them off "on demand".

So my diet fits me. I found eating 800 calories and below 40 carbs meant i wasnt losing weight and i was tired.

shake things up for a bit and see what happens.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
