The stall will end, keep doing what you're supposed to. Maybe stop weighing for a few days?

I am afraid getting aT Dr in when I go back to work Monday will be challenging too

Yeah, I have some worries going back to work Friday. I hope I can hang until 7th period with enough energy to survive. My Water will be in my hand the entire day...hopefully I can get my fluids this way

June 8 sleeve here too.... 3 month ck on Friday. I am questioning just how I am doing.... I was putting in 12 to 18 hour days -6 days a week from 2 weeks post op until last week and now I'm feel like I just got off a rollar coaster and dont have any good habits in place other than drinking as much Water as I can. I'm now going to be working 2-3 days a week and working on our house while my 3 kids are in school so I am going to try my hardest to get into an exercise routine walking hills around where I live and eating correctly.... I know Protein first then greens but am I supposed to stay at 2oz 3xs per day and 1 snack? If do then that's what I will do... I had loads of pre op instructions but thats it for postop. Vits, water, exercise and that diet. Could it be that simple?

@@Abbie213 if you're still at only 2 ounces of food per meal and only having 3 meals a day plus a snack, you're probably not getting enough calories or Protein. I'm two months out and eating way more. I'd have NO energy to move, let alone exercise. I get close to 100 grams of protein per day. Track your protein, not your food ounces. Good luck.

Congrats on your success. I'm down 77lbs total and 60+ of that since June. I feel great but I still don't push the eating. I eat two to three meals and snack several times. I love Greek yogurt and frozen cherries, sometimes with some honey. I still can eat other things but carbs are gross and take up too much space in my belly! Keep up the good fight everyone!

Congratulations! !

My weight loss has slowed, but I keep trying to hit daily Fluid and Protein goals. Started back with trainer 3 times a week. Feels so good to move!

I have found it is still hard to hit my protein goal. We just got placed with our adoptive newborn son, so my attention is off of me which just makes it harder. I did reward myself with some new jeans and a new dress! Not bad for my first clothes purchase since surgery. Jeans are half the size I was.

      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.
