104lbs gone!!! If I can do it, you can too!! Hang in there people!!

Thanks LipstickLady!! ????

I remember being 2 weeks post op last October, still feeling sick, barely able to get Water down. Feeling weak and not sure if I made the right choice. Here we are, a year later and 104lbs lighter. My goal was to lose 60-80lbs because I'm not the overachiever type. I couldn't be happier with my results! I feel great! Have lots I energy and can pretty much handle all foods (except for steak, rice and potatoes) but, I'm fine with it. So before you think that you are having regrets, made the wrong decision or feeling like it won't work, understand that if I can do it, you can too

It could just be you retaining some water. Normal. Watch your salt in take. Could also be time of the month? Be patient, before you know it you'll be where I am, 1 year post op and 100lbs lighter! Trust me, it will be fine as long as you keep it high protein

Energy within the first 2 months! I did Protein drinks for 7 months straight every morning now I just make sure I get a Protein Bar in and the rest in food, chicken and fish mostly

Not too much, working out is helping

I haven't posted on here in a while but wanted to share my progress so far in just 9 short months. 90lbs gone!!

Thanks everyone!

Ann48, I'm not exercising either. I use every excuse in the book to put it off. I have a protein drink every morning for breakfast, lunch is usually turkey pepperoni and about 2 oz of fresh mozzarella cheese or a lean cuisine and dinner is whatever protein I can get my hands on. I've barely had any veggies at all. When I go out I make better choices then I used to. I don't drink as much water as I should and I think it causes my stalls. 40lbs is great!! U should be proud of yourself.

Started 237, size 22, today 178 size 14. This = success in my book!

Is this normal? I'm 3 months post op and haven't lost anything in almost 3 weeks??? Eating 3 meals a day, should I cut down??

Awesome progress!! You look fantastic! I would love to follow you on myfitnesspal if you're on it! I need more inspiration!

I feel as if I'm able to eat more now and afraid I'm eating too much. I'm tracking on my fitness pal as best as I can but I'm at a stall for almost 2 weeks and worry of gaining

I can tell you that I've seen a lot of people, including myself that become lactose intolerant after getting sleeved. So it may be too soon for the cheese. I was able to get a soft boiled egg in after 2 weeks, but only a spoonful or two. U will get full on a few bites. U can try and space out your meals every few hours and drink your fluids in between. I know, easier said then done.
