I really need to get to the gym cuz clearly my metabolism is slow despite less than 800 cals / 60 gm Protein and 70 gm carbs daily. One day at a time. This is not a race. This is forever

I found that if you increase your calories a little bit on days you do cardio you burn more and it shows... Add 100 calories and some carb in the cardio days it's fuel to burn.. Seems crazy but with this surgery nothing is 100% formula!

I haven't been here in a while but you ladies are doing amazing. My hw was 373 and my sw on 8/27 was 347 today I am 301! I am going to the gym about 3-4x's per week using the treadmill on an incline and the elliptical. I'm very much enjoying this process. Getting in all my Protein has been a chore but it's nice to be able to eat the normal foods again, however it is also a challenge because just because I can eat it doesn't mean I should!

70# down from my highest wt

40# down from surgery

When I walk hard enough to sweat for one hour, I drop weight. This balances out the indiscretions I indulge in from time to time--those foods that don't belong in my food plan.

Some days, the thought of dense Protein makes me sick to my stomach!!

I wonder if it is normal at 3 months to feel, "OMG, what have I done? No more large meals, or excessive eating, or eating to relax, entertain, feel better?"

My little tummy is so small that I hardly get going on my meal when it is time to STOP! I'm having a hard time with that right now. I haven't been advanced yet to a normal diet. In 2 weeks I can have raw fruits and vegetables (FINALLY!). I hope that takes the nausea away. I secretly wonder, "OMG, what have I done? Dense Protein at every meal? Gag..

I am jealous of all you fast losers(great job!!), I started at 265 and currently am at 229, I was hoping to be close to 200 by now but I guess I am one of the slow losers, its been consistent with a 1.5 loss every week no stalls since the first 3 weeks. I am working out, could do better with it but I am going to keep at it. Hoping by thanksgiving to be in the 210s

Yesterday I was at 200.9 and couldn't believe it. I weigh myself on Wednesdays only but I drank 10 oz more Water than normal and made sure I hit my Protein goal of 80 grams to test the theory that you have to up it. Found....That it seems to work. :) Try getting more water however weird that is i've read on here lots that it works.!! That said your doing awesome with a steady loss!! Your doing great!! :)

I was afraid to weigh myself this morning......did a horrible job on Water & Protein yesterday.......was up late at night just trying to meet my minimum.........BUT I did weigh myself, and a lost a surprising 3 pounds.

two goals I've passed....my first being under 200, and my second--getting to the half way mark......the next goal will be weighing less than hubby.....which is just a few pounds away (he's a slim man), woot woot!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
