I set a goal today of 3 pounds per week- does that sound realistic?

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!

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.

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??

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.

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!

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. :)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
