laceemouse 631 Posted November 12, 2016 I feel like all the carby Soups i am eating is not helping. But i cant eat anything but pureed. Tried tuna. Threw up like a toddler on a merry go round Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I am not as low weight as you guys but I knew I would lose slowly. I had surgery on Halloween. I think I had Soup twice, how do you have room for Soup? I sip Water all day long and my surgeon has fussed at me for not getting the Protein in. Two shakes a day, Water, and maybe a few bites of Jello or yogurt is all my sleeve has room for. Get your water and your Protein in, all other eating for the first 5 or 6 weeks is for "fun" according to my surgeon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
one year post op 35 Posted November 12, 2016 My first six weeks after surgery I did not count calories(a year ago) . During the first six weeks I counted only Protein and Water. I followed the clinic and nutrition plan to a T.... It gets easier I promise. Those few weeks were the hardest so don't give up. You will wake up one day , weigh and be shocked at how much you lost. Take photos at different stages . I didn't because I hated looking at myself. My friend had my pic to remind me and show me how much I had lost and the changes.. I am so glad Bc it really helped me see the change. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kschultz007 6 Posted November 12, 2016 I have a question. I'm 216 and have my psych eval on 12/15. I'm only 5' flat. How tall are y'all ? I'm thinking even a small amount of weight will look more on my small body Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anm1979 15 Posted November 12, 2016 I started using the calorie tracker for the first time yesterday and realized I was not getting my calories in. I was eating an average of 360 calories. I made myself get to 536 and and 63 grams of Protein in and exercised. I just weighed and lost a pound. It works when you eat. I mainly ate meat and cheese. Had my Protein shake for Breakfast, 3 shrimp and one bite of squash for lunch, 2 more shrimp later as a snack, and I had to stay up late to force my self to eat a slice of deli meat, a slice of cheese, piece of salami and 2 tablespoons of a cheese log Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
