Recommended Posts

I have a few questions for all the June sleevers:

1. What all are you eating now?

2. How many calories are you eating?

3. Are you still drinking Protein shakes?

4. What are your stats right now? I know everyone is different, but just curious where everyone is on their journey!

5. Any other info you want to share. :D

Hi!

My surgery was June 10th. Here you go....

1. I try pretty much whatever I want but usually stick to chicken, turkey, tuna, cheese. I actually just tried beef today (at my parents and my dad made roast beef). No problems with it.

2. My calorie intake is between 500-800/day. Typically average a little over 600.

3. Protein shakes no. I do usually have a Protein Bar for Breakfast though.

4. Down 53.2lbs - just over halfway to my goal.

5. Losing a TON of hair. Started right at 3 months out. Hasn't slowed down yet but hopefully soon!

1. Tolerating anything I try but still following the rules.. Low carb/ high Protein. I've stayed away from starchy carbs but do eat fruit/veggies/meat/dairy. Eating 2-4 oz per sitting, depending on what I'm eating.

2. I don't count calories (per Dr. request)

3. I had stopped but started again after the hair loss started. Figured the extra protein couldn't hurt.

4. Surgery was on 6/11- - 71 lbs lost. :)

5. Love this sleeve. Down from size 22/24 to 14/16. Feeling great!

I was sleeved June 6.

1. I am eating yogurt, cottage cheese, pimento cheese, chicken, fish, etc. I have tried pretty much everything now except for Pasta, bread, potatoes, and rice. (I'm going to avoid those as long as possible.)

2. I usually eat somewhere between 800-1000 calories per day.

3. I will have a Protein shake every couple of weeks when I need Breakfast on the go.

4. I've lost 73.8 pounds, but 30 of that was pre-op.

5. I've never gotten sick or had any problems with anything I've tried. I have several glasses of wine or vodka and Crystal Light about twice a week. I always journal the alcohol in MFP, but I know that's why I'm losing more slowly than others; however, I was miserable during the six weeks that I couldn't have a drink. I live in New Orleans, and drinking is a large part of my social life. I haven't had the hair loss issue yet, at least not that I have noticed. I swim 2-3 times a week and go to a strength yoga class 2-3 times a week.

I am eating any Protein and veggies that I want. I stay away from carbs.

I am eating about 800 calories a day.

Yes, I still drink Protein Shakes daily. I have to be at work my 7:00a.m. and it is the easiest thing to do.

I have lost 54 pounds and my surgery date was June 7th.

Can't wait to lose the next 50 pounds! :)

      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.
