    Where are the 50s ???

    I am 52 years old, 3 mos post op. I am 5 ft 10" tall and have lost 63 lbs to date. It appears from this third month on that my weight loss has slowed down, averaging only a 3 lb weight loss per week. I weighed 245 pre surgery and now weigh 182. My goal weight is 155. Has anyone else experienced this? BTW I do cardio and strength training 5-6 days per week.
  2. It is good to hear your solution to returning to your normal weight loss. I am now 8 weeks post op and have lost a total of 50 lbs. I have a job that can be very high stress, long 12 hour days, requires flying every week, and eating out for every meal during the work week. I carry a 32 oz water bottle with me to work every day and try to drink two of them a day. I also workout 30 minutes 6 out of the 7 days per week. I have tried to make my three meals a day at least 20 grams of protein per meal. I have noticed that my weight loss has slowed way down and I am starting to becoming frustrated. I think that maybe if I increase my water intake along with protein intake maybe I can speed up my weight loss. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Any recommendations?

    50 pounds lost...

    I am 6 weeks post gastric sleeve and I am down 45 lbs. Each day I feel that I am getting more and more of my energy back.
  4. What is the name of the bariatric chewable vitamin available at Walgreens? I have found the bariatric vitamin available at the surgeons office to be quite expensive. Also, does anyone have any recommendations for calcium citrate that is reasonably priced?
