@@gresau1 I had my surgery March 2, 2015. I am down 63 pounds. I walk 3-4 times a week and on average get >8,000 steps in daily. I definitely think we all have individual metabolism. I am getting between 60-100 grams of Protein a day and drinking my Water. I have hit many stalls and have gone back to my basics.

I was also sleeved on March 2. I walk at least 30 mins everyday (more on the weekends). I try to get 80 grams of Protein a day (some days I get a little more or a little less) and I typically get in approx 1000 to 1200 calories. I have lost a total of 70 pounds since January (30 pre op and 40 post op). I still have a lot to go but I feel great! Hope all you March Sleevers are feeling great too!

I'm paranoid about my kids being overweight. They eat mostly high protein.. Sometimes they have grain.. But not every day. eggs are a great protein.. We normally have meat and veggie for dinner.< /p>

Have a Protein Shake.< /p>

I'm very paranoid about my 3 getting big, I don't let them have many sweets or anything with high fat content

Fats are good tho! Little ones need fats. :)

That's awesome Chrystee. Great work. I've been stalled for three weeks now. I can't wait for this to happen to me.

I'm sure I have a stall coming. I was up a pound the other day, but back down, after starting my period (yay, not).

      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.
