Jan 13, 2014 Sleeved Friends



Recommended Posts

I'm curious, how many calories are you Jan 13 sleevers eating a day now? I'm up to between 800 and 900, which seems like TOO much. Is it?

MJM, congrats on a period on your own! Like you said, in God's timing for conception.

Hello Jane. My NUT said around 800 calories right now. I don't think I'm getting that much, but I aim for the 70-80 grams of Protein. Some days I still have to have 2 Protein Shakes to get it all in, and I'm not eating anything but protein at my meals.

I wonder how everyone else is faring!!!????

Hi everyone!

I doubt I'm getting around 800-900 calories a day but I do get my Protein in. I have to have at least 1 shake a day... And maybe a Protein Bar. It seems like I'm not eating a lot again. I just started back walking and bought some good shoes. Hopefully my weight loss (pounds) starts back falling off.

I bought some Atkins meals and they're great! They're small portions, I can eat a whole meal and get about 15-25g of protein from it. And they're about 300 calories! Kind of expensive though but I can just take those for lunch at work!

Hi Sierra, I bought some Atkins meals, too. Pretty good stuff! I like the turkey medallion one, but wish the sauce wasn't all over the green Beans. The chili con carne is good when I want something spicy.

Where is everyone?

Things are going well for me, and I hope all you others are doing great!

Hi everybody!

I have had a bad eating weekend! I still have no self control...well I do have better self control than before but not as good as I should

You know those mini bite size twix snickers an Reese? We have them at work and for the past 4 days I've had 5 a day! I'm so frustrated with myself. U have nothing at home which is wonderful. But when I get real bust at work I'll grab a mini bite!.

I lost 3 pounds last week and in thinking about deleting the scale this week.

Glad Evernote is doing well!

I'm on my 12th wk and still can't take more than 3 or 4 bites of anything with substance. Like chili or tuna etc. So i stay with Protein Shakes and prueed foods. Anyone having trouble with solids. I get about 800 cals a day. Have lost 40 pounds in these 12 wks. Getting enough Water in is a problem. Hope your all doing well. Thanks for listening!

I need a knee replacement, so the only exercise I can really do is in the pool. It's still a bit brisk out there for me here in Florida, even though the pool is heated. Since I can't go until evening, it starts cooling off. It should warm up soon.

I'm not sleeping well at all and am exhausted all the time. Is anyone else having sleep issues?

I have walking since day 2 of my surgery. I start slow for 15 min and worked my way up to 2 miles a day. For a month I was doing a zumba class and 2 circuit classes a week along with the walking. It stalled my loss, I was told by my doctor it was too much, so I stopped as of last week and my loss have started already. I am still walking but no classesfor now. My advice is to start slow work your way up but not too much.

Thanks everyone. I'm working my way up too! I went to the doctor yesterday- I lost 11 more lbs in 4 weeks! I'm really happy with how things have been. Don't have a lot of endurance but it'll come in time I'm sure! :-)

My goal is to reach 50 lbs down by 16 weeks!

How's everyone else doing?

Hi Everyone....Had my Sleeve Surgery on Jan 13, 2014....

SW 260 lbs

CW 195 lbs

I'm in my 4th week of the C25K workout, (Couch to 5K). It's super hard but I'm not giving up. I've been stuck at my current weight for weeks. I've tried increasing my calories, but I'm only able to get in about 1000 per day. Any advise?

Thanks-Mel

      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.
