I am 20 months out and feel awesome. Starting weight was 387 I never thought I would see 1?? Anything ever appear on my scale. I look at my pics now and sometimes shead tears on how much of life I missed out on because I didn't feel like doing much because of the weight. It takes work but you can do anything you put your mind to. Hope this inspires someone that is struggling right now it gets better you just have to learn how to use your tool correctly. Top left pic was my start and some pics in between bottom middle is my most current pic (pink pants) I would have never! 😂

Thank you. I am still unable to tolerate a lot of food so I mainly stick to Protein, protein and more protein. That would be in the forms of lean meats turkey, chicken, steak, light yogurt, 2% milk and cheese ( have become a little lactose intolerant so I don't do much of these. I will occasionally be able to get some veggies in as well but not that often as I still cannot eat much in one sitting. However I too have gone through stalls and the key is listening to your body if it is telling you that it is starving for something do it but in moderation. I sometimes had to break my stalls by incorporating some bread carbs because my body was starving for it but I don't tolerate it to well so it is very spring but it kicks me out of my stalls when I have them. I do walk around 5 miles a day and do hip hop fitness 3x's a week. But again all of our bodies respond to different things so be sure to listen to your tool if it tells you that it is full stop if you don't have those triggers then measure out portions that are recommended by your nutritionist and remember the sleeve is there to help but it doesn't by any means do all of the work for you. If you have any other questions feel free to ask. I hope this helps.

My personal suggestion is to get a few individual packs of different Protein Shakes because you will never know what you are going to tolerate after the surgery. GNC sells some great protien shakes and has a money back guarantee so if you don't or can't use it you can take it back. I had to take 5 different ones back after surgery because I was so lactose intolerant anything with isolate or whether made me physically ill. When I could somewhat tolerate a Protein Shake my go to was Unjury.

Thank you and yes with all of the protien and the fact I have to take Iron because it is super low (before and after surgery) I do find myself getting constipated far more frequently than before the surgery. It does get frustrating so I have started a regiment of drinking a Fiber drink in the morning with a stool softener and at night taking another stool softener. I have to take a laxative from time to time but not as often as before I started this regiment.

Congratulations on your success!!! Very inspiring especially since my weight is similar to yours when I go into surgery on the 21st. I do have a question for you, are you dealing with Constipation eating all that Protein? I'm on day 11 of my pre-op diet and I'm experiencing constipation and I'm a regular person normally. I apologize for asking such a private question.

It took up until I was about 7 months out to get to 5 miles a day and I definitely had to work up to it. I just kept going farther everyday and my Fitbit was the best gift ever. And luckily my boss is super liberal with my time because I work my butt off but can't sit still. I have not been able to do Protein Shakes since I had the surgery because it has made me pretty lactose intolerant but if you can stomach them and you aren't getting enough Protein in via the food you are consuming it could be very beneficial for you. Question have you been to get bloodwork lately if so are your levels down this can throw you weight loss off track as well. Are you snaking a lot you should really only be eating when you are hungry?
