I had mine 11/5/15 I am down 50 pounds but I have been very sick, I can't keep anything down and had to get IV treatments so that help take some off the weight, now I am at a stand still due to lack of Protein and Water, sad I feel like I went through this pain for nothing

I was sleeved on November 10th and, between my four-week pre-op diet and post-surgery weight loss, I am down 102 lbs. I have been fortunate in that I have not really had any problems getting enough Protein or Water in each day. Based upon my nutritionist's recommendations and feedback on this forum, I aim for about 100 g of Protein per day. Since I am only supposed to eat somewhere between 600-700 calories per day, that means that just about everything that I eat has to be pretty high in protein. My go-to foods are Greek yogurt, grilled chicken breast, grilled shrimp & scallops, turkey, with a couple of Protein shakes per day thrown in. So far, so good.

Regarding your diet, you and I are pretty much spot on. I've started doubling up my Protein Shakes, generally two scoops of ON 100% whey per 8 oz of almond milk. Down 80lbs as of last week.

I was sleeved November 16th. Surgery weight 272, current weight 240. I am not getting enough Water or Protein. I wonder would I lose more weight if I was able to get more Protein in? I also have not started exercising yet.... Plan on joining gym before end of week.

I have found the more protein I get in the more I can exercise...so it is tough--I still drink most of my protein.

Sleeved 11/17/15. Lost 20 lbs month one and 4 lbs month 2. What tha hell is up with that?????? The only thing I am not doing right is getting 64 oz of Water a day. Exercising a few times a week. Also losing hair. Sad face.

Have you tried adding Biotin to your daily meds?

      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.
