Not loosing weight! Help!
I also lost a good number the first 2 weeks about 20 ibs but then stalled for 2 and a half weeks.. Number even went up a couple days by a pound.. It has finally broken 2.5 weeks later.. It's frustrating but keep doing proteins and hydration and it will pass!!
-
Proteins
Hair loss, lack of energy. Hunger ect
-
Meals and snacks
Every dr is different. My doctor told me to snack on protein rich foods between meals to ensure I'm at about 800 cal a day... I am 5 weeks out and down 35 ibs since surgery and 50 since preop

Tell me what you eat when you go out now?
Shrimp or chicken.. Mostly a shrimp dish though.. I will eat like 4 shrimp and my wife will have the rest

Why am I not losing?
I was sleeved August 12 first 2 weeks lost really good and the last 2.5 weeks nothing.. Was frustrating but finally broke yesterday and am losing again... It sux I know.. But keep doing ur proteins and fluids.. It will pass

Yoga post-op
You just want to be careful.. My surgeon said cardio was the first thing and I started that three weeks out.. But anything with core muscles you want to wait a couple months at least to make sure your all healed up!

Post Sleeve Activities
Yeah long as ur not impaired by the pain meds and u can throw ur leg over without pain ur good.. I was on mine 6 days out of the sleeve!!
-
Feel like eating too much?
I felt that way for a while... I'm almost a month out now and had chicken breast and a meatball the other night... It was then I realized that it worked... Hang in there stay on schedule but when u get to have ground meats make turkey meatballs and u will see that 1.5 small meatballs will fill u up quick!!
-
Itchy..
Yeah I was itchy for about 3 days while I healed but passed and all is well now
-
