    Is this it ?

    I usually get 70-90 grams of protein a day and I get at least 60 ounces of water. I have however, started having a lot of coffee lately. Do you think that could hinder any weight loss. My nut. Suggested that we never go over 1000 calories. I almost feel like my body has had become accustomed to the same routine and intake everyday.

    Is this it ?

    I started at 221 and am currently 150. I eat around 800 calories a day and try to get between 10-12000 steps a day. 3-4 days a week I run 2- 2 1/2 miles on the treadmill. I ask just recently added hand weights a thigh toning exercise to my workouts.
  4. I am 7 months post op and seem to have lost and gained the same 1-2 pounds for the last 2 months. I have upped my exercise and still am just kind of sitting at the same weight. Has this happened to anyone else ? Any ideas on getting things going again ?

    Quitting smoking - Chantix anyone?

    I also had to quit for surgery. I started taking the chantix and picked a quit date of a week later. I wanted the surgery more than the cigarettes. I was a 2 pack a day smoker when I quit. I am 9 weeks post op, quitting was the best thing I could have done for myself ! Good luck! You can do it !

    July 14 (or close )Sleeve Date Friends

    Surgery date 7/20. HW 260 SW 221 Day of surgery 205. Today is 17 days post op. I weighed 198 this morning. To say I am a little disappointed would be an understatement. I have had no trouble getting in protein and fluids since day 1 post op. I consume less than 600 calories daily and this is my first week walking 1.5 miles daily. The weight just isn't coming off. I am hoping it is just part of the healing process and part of starting at a lower weight than some.

  13. I am 5 days post op and I still weigh more than the day of surgery. I have had no trouble getting my fluids or protein in. I have had minimal pain and feel pretty good. I can not tell if I am full. I've had a full carton of yogurt that ended with a runny nose but I did not feel full. Help !!
