  1. I'm doing about 800 most days. But some days it's closer to 1000. I can only eat about 2oz of grilled chicken, but soft stuff like fruits and lettuce I can eat alot of.... But I can drink a 24oz bottle of Water in less 30 minutes. And it also depends on the day. Some days I'm hungry all the time some days I'm not hungry at all.

    I think it has alot to do with me not drinking enough Water or forgetting my acid preventative on those days.


  2. So after the big loss with the pre-op diet and the 1st month after surgery was a 14lb loss. I am now only losing about 7lbs a month. I get all my Protein in and exercise 5x a week. Sleeve weight 274 current weight 242. Does this seem like a slow loss compared to most of you? Don't get me wrong I'm stoked!!! I just really wanted to get under 200lbs and at this rate it's not going to happen. Oh I am also 5'10"

    My doc says the average loss in first 4 months is 35% of excess weight. Seems like you are about that!

    Wow really? 35% I've already way supassed that! By my 4 month mark (little over a week) I will have lost almost 50%!!! Yay!


  3. Hey yall! How are yall doing? We're slowly creeping up on our 4 months mark. What's everyone's losses look like? Hopefully were all past the rough parts now :) I finally broke into the 160s this morning and I'm stoked about that. This is my first "pregress" pic I think I've ever posted. :)

  4. My highest weight ever was 249 lbs about 5 years ago. I lost 85lbs (pre surgery) and maintained it until I quit smoking about 2 years ago. These are my stats SINCE my regain. Surgery was earlier this year in feb.

  5. Hey yall. Happy 3 month surgiversary! My HW 224, surgery at 204, and now I'm at 173. I'm 33lbs from my goal weight! My losses have never been overly fast because I started with a lower BMI. I average about 2-3lbs per week. So I'm okay with that. :) how are yall doing?


  6. Met with my nutritionist today (7.5 weeks out) for anyone that is curious i thought id share. she said she's thrilled with my progress and that I'm right on track.

    On my high cardio days (I'm burning 300-600 just from cardio) to get my calorie count up to 900-1000 and on days I don't (weekends) to get close to 700-800. Otherwise she thinks my weight loss is perfect for my height. She said to stay in this calorie range during the losing phase, and that it really won't change much until after I hit goal and get to maintenance. So I'm okay to get comfortable in the 700-1000 calorie range for now.

    She also said that at almost 2 months and with my cardio I'm doing she would like to see me get in closer to 80-90g of protien. Right now I'm getting about 70g. And she LOVES the fact that I'm getting 90+% of my protien from chicken/yogurt/nuts etc. She also said she thinks I will be able to reach 160lbs easily. After that the weightloss will get harder.

    P.s. I'm currently doing about 1 hour of cardio per day (broken up into 3 segments) about 1/2 of it I'm running at a 6.5mph pace and the rest I'm walking at a 3.0-3.5mph pace on a 6% incline.

    This is everything I'll eat today except for dinner. :)

  7. How are yall doing? I stalled for a while and I think it's cause my calorie intake was too low. I'm not being quite so strict on it now. Plus it helps that I found some AMAZING protien bars :)

    I stalled also. I didn't know if it was from the Constipation issue but I have gone past both now. I discovered if I added a little more fat to my diet I became "regular" again. I went out for the first time last Wednesday with some friends and it was harder than I thought it would be. I love my Irish whiskey and beer, and not being able to have any for a while kinda kills me.

    I think this is what has helped me. My diet has more fat than ever before and I'm regular too
