sleeve date 7/22/13

[Rie 6]

I was sleeved on July 22nd and not losing very fast at all! Since surgery I have only lost 29 lbs! I am a diabetic and was wandering if there are others out there that we can chat about what different foods they eat? I have to be so careful about sugar and carbs! At this point I can eat everything except beef! It just won't go down at all! How many calories do you eat daily and do you exercise? What type of exercise?

I was sleeved 7/23/2013 and am diabetic too! Weight is coming off slowly, but I have to be very cautious with carbs and sugars. My weightloss has improved since going back on my meds (metformin, 500mg 2x daily) and I'm exercising 5 days a week now. I try to eat lots of Protein and usually drink a Protein Shake for Breakfast. I eat fish, turkey, chicken but no beef. Snacks consist of string cheese, almonds and SF pudding. (sometimes beef jerky). Eating between 600- 800 calories per day, but I feel hungry a lot too. May increase protein this week.
