Well, I've been eating like 4 times a day, but Hawk, I'v hit a stall for nearly 2 weeks and I am furious So today, I began with what I did in my preop diet. I hate chicken broth and water and protein drinks and sugarfree pops, as a desperate way to jump start my losing again and then of course this 1 meal, which i ate over the course of lunch and dinner Hope that answers your question How are you

This is the majority of my real food for today.. Other than this, I ate about 5 sugar free popcicles 2 cups of fat free chicken broth and lets see 2 cups of coffee Do you think this plate is too much "real food" for the day. It's not much chicken. That white triangle on the left is a slice of " Laughing cow cheese" The front right is a tinsy bit of lettuce, with like 2 pea size drops of reduced fat ranch dressing. and oh the brow mush stoff on the laughing cow cheese is a tinsy spoonful of humus and the other meat besides the chicken is lemon tuna. I hate this plate over lunch and dinner. No other solid foods Oh and I almost forgot I had two 8 ounch cans of protein shakes today. Each was about 170 calories.. That's all for my day and I am 4 weeks and 1 day post op

Hi We share the same surgery date Lol How much have you lost since surgery? Have you hit a stall? I have and it's pissing me off.. Since Dec 26 (my two week) I've got up and down but have only lost about a 1lb, which means that 16 pounds I did lose since surgery was pretty much in the first two weeks post op Grrr How many calories are you eating in a day? When did you weigh 308? On surgery date? Nice to meet you. What's your name? I'm Joanna

What were your stats. How much did you weight on surgery, how much are you now? .. I could have eatn 7 or 8 too.. Isn't it crazy how we eat for comfort? How much have you lost since surgery. And .. did you hit a stall? and if so how long did it last?

So I'm a widow and my kids are out of the house and I would love to make friends with you guys. But does anyone live near waco. It would be fun to do things together, Work out, watch movies, share our life stories, take our dogs out. I am not a super social person, but I miss compansionship and friendship and although I do love Rock, I miss humans lol Seriously, does anyone live near Waco. We can work out together or.. I don't know, something Lol

You are smokin' hot. Good for you Seriously That's crazy , (good kind) Well, I just began mine and actually, I've been swimming for the last few weeks cause I'm burned out on the dang stationary- elliptical ( the standing up kind is too hard for now -my weight makes it hard on my knees-for now) And anyways, I love swimming. I swim for an hour, sometimes 45 minutes, but I swim laps andI want you to know, I've been between 304-306 (up and downbetween these numbers for 2 weeks) I thought to myself. Maybe I am not bruning enough calories with this swimming, which saddens me bc there is not a lot of exercize I really "love" So may it'sjust the stall everyone's chirping about Did you stall at 3 weeks? and if so, how long was your stall. Sorry for SO many questions, but I cann't keep at this number I am super proud of your weight loss. That's amazing and.. I hate you! Lol

Girl, has it? I'm sorry What was your weight on surgery date? Mine was 321 and now (rolling eyes) it goes up and down between 304-306 ( for two weeks) Ugh.. pray girl, let us pray Nice to meet you

Wait, you already told me ( I'm Dory- finding nemo) and yes, I HATE you Waaa. You've lost more than me and you had yours AFTER me ugh Good job. Sleep well

Hey Tim. I assume that's your name? What um, well first, nice to meet you. How much weight have you lost since your surgery? I have questions, so many questions How much do you weigh now? How much did you weight on day of surgery? What caused your stomach torn muscles? Did you already have torn msucles ie diastasis recti or was it caused by the gas? do you exercize. How tall are you. How much do you eat on a daily basis at this point, calorie wise?

Hey Tim. I assume that's your name? What um, well first, nice to meet you. How much weight have you lost since your surgery? I have questions, so many.. Do you work out. What is your current weight, what was your weight at surgery, how tall are you How many calories do you eat at this point

I am worried you guys. I've hit a stall from Dec 26 until now Jan 4, and I've stay about the same. I was 307 On Dec 26. and now on the scale at the gym Im 305. The other day though I was 304 on gym scale. I am worried. How do you get the gastric sleeve and gain weight at 4 weeks post op. (Laughing) and it appears that I am able to eat more ( already) Teeth chattering I am consuming about 1,300 calories with my protein drinks and I don't know how. I drink a ton of water and other things I worry that somethings wrong What do you guys think. I"d like to hear your calorie intake @ 4 weeks post op and.. did you hit a stall and gain between week 3- and 4

I had surgery on Dec 11. and I know I've heard of a stall @ three weeks. But what I'm nto sure of, is it when the three week begins or after the three weeks When exactly is this stall? The reason I'm asking is because last week I haven't lost but like 1-2 pounds. and so that would have been my third week (I think) and I've been kidna worried and depressed about it. Part of the problem is I am weighing on diff scares. Gym scale, doctors scale, my scale and they all vary. ( I will be stopping that pronto) But when is this stall exactly? Have you guys who have had surgery experienced this "stall"

Girl/ guy, YESSSSS on the scale went up. My scale went up like 2-3 pounds and I was like, WTH lol How do you GAIN weight after gastric sleeve and less than a month out, hilarious If anyone could beat the odds of gastric sleeve working for them, it would be me. ROFL I love it Thanks so much Thank you

Thank you soo much for that website. And I will be checking it out. Thank you for your encouragement Im Joanna, nice to meet you

Hey guys, question When people say, Oh I lost 80 pounds in 4 months, or I lost 100 pounds in 6 months, I tend to wonder if that is how much they lost since surgery, or since it all, pre surgery preop diet, since surgery , entirely When you say, you've lost X amount of pounds, are you counting down from surgery date, or pre surgery diet and since surgery? Just curious

Thanks Superman or seahaws fan.. I've lost about 15 pounds or 16, but man, others are losing like 30 and I'm like tearing up. Lol I heard that its supposed to be 15-30 first month, so I'm all like sniffling lol The fact taht I've bounded around the same numbers for nearly 2 weeks and have gained even 2 pounds is what's scaring me. How do you have the gastric sleeve and gain 2 pounds in week three .. They say water what.. Yea, okay Lol Thanks sweet guy.. Hugs

Well, you're not as overweight as I, so therefore your weight loss will or normally would be slower than someone as fat as me, soo good job on losing that 17 pounds. That's pretty good But we're kinda in the same boat. This sucks.. Thanks for sharing this with me

Girl talk about it.. And the closer you are to your ideal weight, the less you lose The fatter you are, the quicker it comes off, in the beginning. I was 344 at propdiet diet. 321 day of surgery and it's bounced down to 304, went up to 306, and it is now 305 and I have 2 days left before my 4 week post off On Dec 26 ( my 2 week post op I was 307) so this tells you, how long I've been in "stall mode" and it's beginnign to make me think I will the one person bariatric sleeve doesnt work for. Just my eff in luck Bahaha lol There is no reason we should lose so little this soon out But the fact that you're so much smaller than I, "Over and over" and closer to yoru idea weight, you're doing good @ losing 12lbs in your first month, imo Keep up the girl work Sincerely, Ms Depressed lol Wanna hear the irontic thing? I've struggled with 2 years , from the high 300's to right about where Im at now, the just above 300's and I have never been able to get below 300..It's been about 16 years since I've been in the 200's and I am starting to think, it's physically impossble to get below 300. Maybe I have some crazy sickeness that my body rejects ever allowing my body to creep down to the 200's, no matter how much i starve myself or work out lol Hey, how else do you explain this? Lol See me in 6 months and say, Jo, were you able to ever get below 300 pounds? Lol

Hi. What was your weight on day of surgery, may I ask. How long was your preop diet? When you put your starting weight? When was taht starting weight date?

Hey, Abe Question I am blown away.. and pissed Lol Did you lose taht weight since your surgery date of Dec 20. Or was that your weight at the beginning of your preop I am soo blown out of the water. I am stalled for over a week now. And honestly, I think I can eat more than I should be able to. I have only been having one protein drink the last couple of days. Because during pureed stage, you can have just 1 protein drink, if you get in your protein through food as well. I am wonderin if that is wher eI've screwed up.. But the truth is. protein drinks are expensive and, I don't want to have to depend on that for the rest of my life in order to lose. What purpose of the surgery was there. Lol How much were you on surgery date

Okay, I'm sorry Orion. You're not a snob pls forgive me It may be about 900 onhe calories bu tI agree with you. It's high and I don't know how I can eat that much this early on. I am eating Greek yogurt, chicken, a little bit of hummus, a tinybit of reduced fat creamcheese, low fat cottage cheese .. I jus don't know I am working out, 1 hour of straight swimming. And like yesterday, I did 1 hour of swimming, half and hour on he sitting ellipitcal and then I went bk and swam another 20 minutes Im sick of this crap lol Thanks for listening. Btw, Good job on losing the near 100 Sorry again for getting snarky with u
