Who did yours?

Sent from my SM-T810 using BariatricPal mobile app

Dr Schmidt from Advanced Laparoscopic Associates in Paramus, NJ - done in Hackensack Hospital

I was sleeved June 5th, so i am on my 10th week this week. The first two weeks i lost 18 lbs but the 8 weeks since then have been ssslllloooowwwww! I go between 30-32 lbs down. Eating is kind of like torture.. I am lucky if I get 4oz a meal, then i get really full and uncomfortable. I guess I am doing something wrong... probably because I am not exercising. After work I have no energy - but I try to walk as much as I can. I get my Vitamins in because i have the patch so it is easy for me. I do pretty good with my Protein intake but Water isnt as easy. Just very discouraged these days when you see no results AND cant eat... oh.. starting weight 244 current weight 214

I'm having a really hard time coming up with something I can eat for Breakfast. I'm 7 months out and have been struggling for a couple of months now. I ate the triple zero yogurt with fruit for so long that I can't stand the smell of the yogurt by itself anymore. I couldn't eat eggs at Breakfast before surgery so I'm terrified to try them now. Unfortunately there isn't much out there that has enough Protein that isn't yogurt or eggs!

Occasionally I make a chicken salad and I can eat that, but it gets old after a day or two. I have given up on ever liking tuna again, once in a while I can stomach it but not often. I had been visiting the subway in the lobby of the place I work and just getting the meat that would come on a 6inch sub but even that turns my stomach some days. I'm just at a loss. Today I tried an overnight oats recipe that was higher in Protein, but I'm not sure if that was a good idea. I wasn't able to eat lunch because I got extremely nauseous and had some stomach pains a couple of hours after eating it.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I'd appreciate any help!

I struggle with breakfast as well so I will have a Pure Protein Shake that has 35g of protein OR a Pure Protein Bar that has 20g of protein in it .. the shakes I prefer the Cookies n cream flavor and the bars I have Choc. w/ peanut caramel and its pretty good! hope this helps

How long after surgery is it ok to try some wine ?

I can tell you what I went through and the little things I did to make my life more comfortable
