My surgery was September 25, 2013 and my last weigh in I had lost 97 lbs and counting.

I don't weigh myself so I don't know if I have lost any more.

I'm doing great and feel good.

I'm off of diabetes meds, blood pressure meds, cholesterol meds and a couple others.

I have a Protein shakes everyday and I have a Quest bar too.

I still eat small portions because I and meat don't always agree with each other.

I don't get sick from it it just fills me up with 2 or 3 oz.

I can eat more of fish, egg beaters and reduced fat cheese.

I don't eat very much carbs except for a few crackers with my cheese or once in awhile a slice of toasted bread.< /p>

I think that covers about everything except I exercise 4x a week at the gym and keep moving doing other things on the other days.

Had my surgery sept. 23rd. Started at 350. Weighed myself on Monday and am currently at 231. I'm not as dedicated as some. I do watch portion size and look at sugar and fat content. Am currently training for a half marathon, so that helps me keep the metabolism going. Try to keep the calorie intake in between 1200 - 1600 calories.

I was sleeved Sept. 17th, started at 250 and I am down 57 pounds. The weight loss slowed in January when I began working out 4-5 times per week. I have only lost about 10 pounds in the last 3 months. BUT, I am not getting too worried. The closer you get to goal, the slower the weight loss. I only have about 25 more realistically (35 more ideally) to lose. I am working out (I need to kick up my strength training) and doing what I can, and that is what I am concentrating on. With that being said though, I do struggle with getting too comfortable and sometimes I really need to review the basics. I never go nuts, but there is always room for improvement (i.e taking the cheese off of the slice of pizza if i have it, measure more frequently instead of eyeballing, etc.).

I do have a question though.....how much do you think you are eating per meal? 1/2 cup, 3/4 cup, 1 cup, 1 slice pizza? Any thoughts on that would be helpful!

Hi everyone I was sleeved on September 25th, 2013

SW 282

CW 192=

90lbs lost so far. I feel amazing I'm excited for my 9 month appointment with my Dr. I'm hoping to hit 100 lbs lost by then.

My weight loss has been pretty consistant, averaging about 8-10 lbs per a month. I work out 4-5 times a week, i change my workout routine every 3 weeks, this week i've added bulgarian split squats, and jumping jacks with weights. I do a ton of cardio usually about 17-20 miles between the bike and eliptical or eliptical and running on the treadmil. I tend to spend close to 2 hours at the gym during my 5 day rotation. I love it and feel stronger every day. If I hit a stall I actually take a break from the gym and change up my eating usually incorporating a tiny more fat and carbs in my diet and that seems to do the trick. Making up on the weightloss.

I eat 5-6 small meals still. I weight and messure everything I eat, I'm doing 1/4 cup portions of Protein my dr said at this point I can basicly eat as much as a can of tuna will hold. so i try to keep that in mind when i'm doing my 3 main meals and portioning out veggies, althought I can honestly say I never finish because I still get full very easily. I hardly eat any carbs! My carb intake is usually under(12 grams) per day unless its that "time of the month". I'm so happy I finally put myself first for the first time in my life. It really feels amazing

Surgery was September 23, 2013 and I am down 132 pounds-that includes 3 month pre op diet. I have been losing steadily until June, then only 2 pounds! I carefully monitor my food, calorie and carb intake on Myfitnesspal.com. So what is happening??? The only thing that has changed is that I have getting a little more exercise since I adopted a dog on May 31. The new dog requires a lot of attention and potty training is a 24/7 job. Could the extra exercise be causing the stall? I am feeling very down about this set back. Has anyone else experienced a stall at 9 months? I am so afraid I am stuck and will not lose any more weight :(

      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.
