Peggy 53 69 Posted October 27, 2013 Surgery 8/28. Pre-op 229...DOS 221... Today 198. 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 1 sophiepants reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
italian-girl 152 Posted October 27, 2013 Surgery 8/28. Pre-op 229...DOS 221... Today 198. 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! 1 sophiepants reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SarahJean30 33 Posted October 27, 2013 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! 1 sophiepants reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

K33 87 Posted October 28, 2013 HW: 243 SW: 214 on 8/5/13 CW: 173 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.. 2 sophiepants and Mocha2871 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

adargie 159 Posted October 31, 2013 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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!! 1 adargie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PGee 318 Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) 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!
