Bellanthin reacted to VSG AJH in from 217 now 155 since aug how many calories should i eat to still lose
My doctor said the same thing. Unfortunately, that doesn't work for me. I've been aiming to stay at the 800-900 daily calorie range, limiting myself to four opportunities a day to take in food (one instruction my NUT did provide) and no more than 1/2c. per opportunity (often times less). I'm one month out, and I feel hunger at regular intervals. I also have no pain or adverse effects when eating (I.e. throwing up, dumping, etc.) I'm afraid if I let my baby sleeve totally run the show, I'll end up grazing, developing bad habits, and not losing. Following these guidelines, I'm in control, I'm hitting all of my Water and nutrition goals, and I'm losing (haven't hit the three-week-stall quite yet!). More importantly, I feel physically satisfied and truly am getting enough food (but not too much) to keep my sleeve happy and healthy.

Bellanthin reacted to BKLYNgal87 in 5 months out and havent lost in 3-weeks help
I didn't lose anything for nearly 3 weeks over the holidays. I'd say mostly that was my fault. I had relatives staying with me and we went out to eat a lot and I didn't go to the gym like I should. There was also too much temptation around my office snack-wise. Even if you were following the diet to a T, stalls are totally normal. The body needs to just rest sometimes. Changing up the menu and exercise routine will help you push past it. I am a fan of the 5 day pouch test, that seems to temporarily eliminate my snacking cravings and increase restriction. Don't be dismayed - everyone goes through this at some point. Keep pushing forward and you'll see the scale move again!

3500 calories is a pound ate or drank
to lose weight, we must not eat more calories than we can burn off/use
def agree with buff, need to refer to your dr or nutritionist to get the right info based on you
as we all are different....great job on weight loss btw

You may want to talk it over with your dietician or surgeon. My plan calls for staying under 800-850 calories and under 60 grams of carbs per day. I am about 6.5 months out and am losing following these guidelines.

Bellanthin reacted to youthguy80 in Total cost billed to insurance.
I received my EOB for surgery and pre op testing....62,000! I'm so grateful for insurance. Just curious if this was congruent with other folks costs.

Bellanthin reacted to Skalleywag in HELP! Denied by BCBS IL Boeing ins.
I am writing a letter to submit to my insurance co and will be calling the surgery coordinator first thing in the am to see what she recommends. And then I will be calling the insurance co and bugging them. I am so angry and upset that I have my husband quoting "Rocky" saying it's not how you get knocked down but how hard you fight to get back up or something along those lines I will not be giving up !! I don't feel it's a option for me. Thanks everyone. Please keep the ideas coming anything helps. :wub:
