Thanks ! I am million times better than I where I was

I was extremely weak from chemo and I have myasthenia gravis (causes weakness). I have to argue with myself to exercise. I am walking and moving a lot more. But do need to get into a better fitness routine.

Wow ! So awesome for you!. I pray I get there. Seems I'm losing slooowwww...

I did it too ...it's a struggle. I did fine for surgery. I had lost 30 lbs prior to surgery so my liver had shrunk. Plus I spoke with dietician bc I wasn't doing the optifast diet, I did an alternate. They ended up letting me actually eat small amounts lean meats salad etc. Good luck this is one of the toughest aspects of this surgery adventure. Get back on track

As swelling goes down it will get easy. I found that regular water was difficult. My doc said that water has more volume than when mixed with sugar free drink flavors like crush etc. I thought what yeah right. Well he was right once I added things like crush etc I could drink. Also in beginning I survived off powerade zero. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using BariatricPal mobile app

My dietician said 80 grams a day and I thought I was close...I went back through diary was always around 60. So going to start adding unflavored protein to food Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using BariatricPal mobile app

Hello! Just wondering how many protein shakes do you drink a day? I have been drinking one in morning along with faithfully logging my food and meeting my protein goal 60-80 a day. But I wonder if I should drink more protein shakes maybe at least 1 more daily because I'm in a stall. And I think 60 gram protein may not be enough daily. Sleeved 12-5-16.
