With a lower starting BMI, you are going to lose less, than people that are larger, 57 lbs in 6 months seems good. Talk to your NUT about your calories.

Are you meeting your Protein goals each day?

Thank you.... I am not meeting them...I'm very close..... Trying to sneak in more here and there. Any recommendations for Protein besides shakes?

Unflavored Protein in broth and other drinks. Baked fish like swai.

Is my weight loss to slow? I'm averaging 1000 calories a day.... Doing cardio and yoga but haven't lost on three weeks....people tell me I'm not eating enough....is that possible?

I'm basically same as you. Started at 260 on 6/30 and am 203 now. I'm pleased.

Thanks.... I'm happy to.... I guess I was just reading some crazy weight loss stories and felt discouraged....

I read those too. Those huge early losses are the exception not the norm. What counts is how we are doing 18 months, 3 years, 5 years etc.

As I approach my goal weight, I find that I am up and down repeatedly by 5 pounds or so until I finally get to a new low weight. I feel a little bit of pressure because my next surgery checkup is the first week of February and the NP said I should be at goal then. I think I'll be within 5 pounds anyway.

Do I need to see the doctor? I was sleeved July 2015 and have always burped after eating, but lately it has been painful. I am not sure if it is acid? Anyone else have this issue?

Seems strange it's getting worse. I'd definitely see dr.
