Day 48

Soooo I am not losing. But I look and feel better. I started doing roller derby which btw is an insane workout. I think I may have actually gained some muscle so I am not beating myself up about losing. I am still at about 15lbs lost. I was hoping for allot more at this point. But reading the forums I see people don't magically lose until they get proper restriction. My fill is about a week old now. I feel a little bit different but not much. I really don't want to calorie count but I think I will try to add it up to see if I am taking too much in. I would guess I am doing 900-1200 a day.

You know, maybe you aren't getting enough calories? Seems crazy, but your body does need them to get into metabolism mode...at least if you were keeping track you'd know and would have something to discuss with your surgeon at your next fill appt. Just some 'food' for thought..hehehee. Good luck.

Be sure and get in your protien. I was sure it was a ploy for me to take in more calories for no darned reason but I swear when I drink 1-2 of those yucky shakes with at least 52 grams of protien a piece i really do lose more weight honest. try it and see.

Yeah that sounds reasonable. I am not sure how many are good. I don't have a nutrionalist.
