Mine was March 2nd. Lost 24 lbs immediately but nothing since. And I stay with the diet guide to the letter....60 - 70 gms Protein and 70+ ozs Water daily. Others seem to be losing steadily but.....not me. ANYONE ?????

It sounds like you just hit a stall give it a week to week and a half. Also up your Protein. I was told to get between 70-100 g of protein a day. The scale will start moving again soon enough.

How's everyone doing? I'm slowly losing. Down 40lb since my heaviest. 25lbs since surgery.

I was sleeved Feb 29th. Lost 28lb before surgery, then 16lb in the first 14 days after surgery before stalling. The stall lasted 2.5 weeks, and I am now losing about 3lb/week. Have lost a total of 51lb since Jan 1st.

I am not following the eating/drinking guidelines to the letter, but I am also watching my calories and not eating anything unhealthy or that would jeapordize my progress... and I walk 3 days per week and go to the gym 3 days per week.

Hard to say! I have a Protein shake and a Protein Bar each day. Then I typically have a Lean Cuisine or Atkins frozen dinner emphasizing veggies and Protein for dinner, 8-9oz. A greek yogurt now and then. I also eat some fruit, and some whole grains/fiber, like:

• slice of protein enriched bread w/peanut butter, or an over-easy egg, or a little chicken salad
• bowl of Cheerios or All-Bran or Post Shredded Wheat & Bran with organic fat-free milk
• Fiber enriched low sugar oatmeal with wild blueberries

I am basically just trying to eat healthy and light, probably average 1000 calories or so. That's not very much, so I am losing weight about the same rate I did before surgery.

I must not be eating enough! I get really hungry especially at night so I snack in pretzel stuffed with Peanut Butter nuggets. Ugh! Why can't I do this????

I don't think it hurts to sin a little, but you do need to watch snack foods like those PB-stuffed pretzels. There is no Fiber to go with the carbs. Better to have a piece of fruit or a little low sugar oatmeal.

It's only 130 calories for 9 nuggets. My brain knows that what you're saying is how it should be but its just easier and quicker to eat the

Pretzel nuggets.

I know some of you may be in a different phase but my NUT has authorized me to eat anything...so yesterday I had several nuts. They were awesome! Roasted pecans at lunch and then almonds for "dinner" (since I skipped a real meal.) I had no problems and am super excited to be back to eating regularly. I'm having a hard time getting my workouts in though!
