I think that it sound like you are doing great. The energy levels and meeting Protein and Water goals are very important. Definitely more important then rapid weight loss!! You and I did the surgery at the same time and I can tell you from my personal experience, I would trade 5 pounds of my weight loss right now to be able to get in more water/protein and have more energy.

Unfortunately I faced a complication 2 weeks ago which eventually lead to many tests, IV fluids and general lack of energy and malnourishment. I lost 40 pounds in 5 weeks which sounds great but I wouldn't mind trading some of it in for some more energy! Thankfully I am now finally recovering from the complications and eating more but my doctor was alarmed at my weight loss.

So be proud of your progress! Especially the non scale related ones! scale is not everything as I learned from my personal experience
