NikkiPen 51 Posted August 12, 2017 I set a goal today of 3 pounds per week- does that sound realistic?Mich WYes, I think for right now 3 sounds about right. 1 Missy161 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Missy161 395 Posted August 12, 2017 Yes, I think for right now 3 sounds about right. It does surprise me sometimes that it's not more since I'm eating under 800 cals per day and burning over 2200. But at least the scale is going the right direction! Mich WHw 223, SW 217 CW 194 GW 135 1 NikkiPen reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NikkiWorldJourney 70 Posted August 15, 2017 So I'm almost 7 weeks out and getting bored with food. I'm doing lots of tuna salad and cottage cheese and cheese sticks and fish. Anyone got any good food ideas or recipes they are starting to use? 1 Aliya78 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Missy161 395 Posted August 15, 2017 So I'm almost 7 weeks out and getting bored with food. I'm doing lots of tuna salad and cottage cheese and cheese sticks and fish. Anyone got any good food ideas or recipes they are starting to use?I am so with you! One thing I love though is zucchini noodles with spaghetti sauce! I got a spiralizer and make noodles out of zucchini- tried adding carrots last week and it was wonderful - added just a little more flavor. I got mine in Amazon for around $20.Im struggling with adding food I shouldn't eat because I can tolerate almost anything now. I'm wondering it that is really that bad if I watch my calories and get my Protein in. I have had a single small piece of pizza 3 times- usually on date night.

NikkiWorldJourney 70 Posted August 22, 2017 Hi June Sleevers! So I was doing pretty good but the last week and a half I have hit a huge stall. Only lost one pound in a week and a half. Before it was almost a lb a day. I haven't changed much. Getting between 700-800 calories a day. Getting 60oz of Water and around 70-80g of protien. Anyone else starting to stall?? 1 Missy161 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Missy161 395 Posted August 23, 2017 Yes. I stalled for 2 full weeks now am losing again slowly. Stalled at 192.8 now I'm 190.2. I have started walking more though. And when I averaged my weight loss it's exactly what the dr said it would be- around 20 the first month and 10 each month after. I think we expect it to fall off because we are eating so little but that's not realistic I now see.

Ema1485 17 Posted August 25, 2017 Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well since surgery ... I'm 8 weeks out so far I'm down 35lbs since surgery day! Here is my 2 month picture ... one was 4 days prior to surgery & the other is this past wednesday ... I thankfully can tolerate 99% of anything ... I've noticed cold cuts (roast beef in particular) is something I can't, other than that I'm doing great! This was the best decision I've ever made! 3 Missy161, Kiri007 and Oliviasmom1578 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BT816 82 Posted August 25, 2017 Hi there, fellow June sleevers! Glad to see everyone kicking butt! I'm in a bit of a stall right now, but overall things have been going well. I went on vacation for a few weeks at the end of July and probably snuck in some carbs that I should not be eating right now (or ever), and am trying to stay on track with Protein, Water and logging my food. Fortunately, I was able to be very active on vacation and do many things I would not have been able to just a few months ago. Need to gather up some "good" before pictures now that I have plenty of after/during pics. 3 colleen 5595, Missy161 and nonickname4me reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
