  1. Its not as bad as you think. But they also have tender bites and I Know it has a lot of sodium however you can get 16 to 22 grams of Protein out of 2 to 3 ounces
  2. I drink 2 premier protein shakes a day which is 60 grams. Then I try to eat protein every 2-3 hrs. Examples are ricotta cheese, string cheese, beef jerky, peanut butter on apples. I try and fit these in between breakfast lunch and dinner. I don't always get it all in but I have very physical job and I have been working out hard so I have found the less protein I have the less energy I have
  3. I try to hit 90 to 120 grams of protein of course that's not always easy. But I feel like I'm dragging if I don't hit those numbers.
  4. Rockinbella that is a mistake you only make once. Eskimo I am currently in my second stall. The first was 4 weeks post op and it only lasted a little over a week. This one I am in now has been 4 weeks. To say it isn't frustrating I would be lying however I have been losing inches instead of lbs.
  5. Happimarci you probably aren't getting enough protein in if you are feeling tired. As for the excercise I was sleeved in mar and didn't start really working out until late june. But now I am addicted to it.
  6. I started this journey at 291 and my goal originally was 200 but now I think I want to get down to 180
  7. Over time you will get used to not eating. Its tough for me when I am stressed because I want to eat everything but luckily I can't. as for how I am doing I am down 83 lbs and feel amazing. I have hit a plateau for the last month however I have been losing inches and gaining muscle so I am not worried about the scale not moving. All in all I have to say that getting the sleeve was the best decision I ever made.
  8. East Patchogue here. Living the sleeved life since mar 20
  9. As of this week I am down 79
  10. Thanks for the info. I am 3 and half months out and was told by my doc to do 4 days of weight lifting and to really limit my cardio. I have lost 77 lbs so far but I am noticing a lot of sagging skin
  11. How much weight did you lose? And how long have you been working out?
  12. Sleeved 3/20 Starting wgt 291 Down to 217 Loving life
  13. I'm 3 months out and I also am on a 3 to 4 lb a week average
  14. For me fish was one of the easiest things to get down in the beginning. It could be that you ate too fast or too much. I'm almost 3 months out and still eat way to fast. For me eating slower has been one of the hardest parts of this experience.
  15. Hey guys I was sleeved on mar 20th. I started doing p90x 4 weeks later. My doc says its an excellent workout for sleevers. You just can't do the ab ripper until 6 weeks out. I am down 53 lbs a d feeling amazing
  16. Hi I am from east patchogue and I was sleeved on Mar 20th by Dr Buchan in Huntington hospital
  17. I'm frustrated I have been on the liquid protein diet for 4 days and have only lost 2 lbs.
  18. Where in ny? I am having it done at huntington hospital by dr buchin
  19. I have those fears also. However i am more afraid of what will happen to me if i dont start losing the weight now.
  20. I was told the surgery would be cancelled if I didn't quit
