  2. Hey surgery twin [emoji2] so happy to hear of your progress. Thank you for sharing your advice and routine, much appreciated. I try to do 10k steps a day but because I have a 'tied to the office desk job I get there when I incorporate my gym workouts. I'm eating mostly fish or chicken with most meals so trying to get that up. Protein shakes make me violently ill (all brands that we get in Kenya) BUT I can tolerate Gold Standard so trying to work my way up to 2 servings rather than just one. I really appreciate the support and encouragement. Hope you're doing really well and I'll touch base in a week or two [emoji120]

  4. Thank you. I'm going to take that on board and try to stop my brain from freaking out. Def going to up my water and protein and see if that helps. Cheers

  8. Thank you. I guess I'm just worried about the stall bit. It's immensely frustrating and I guess seeing people who have lost their weight (which they say was effortless) is making me anxious. [emoji21]

  13. My Doctor is being quite good and patient with mu panicked queries. He says not to worry although when I spoke to him yesterday he wanted me to cut down on my calories, something I sort of balked at, because I was at a loss what to cut out and I'm also working out for about an hour everyday :/ I just wonder if someone else has experienced something similar because it's a bit discouraging.
  14. So I'm averaging about 600 calories a day that includes my Protein Shake, getting about 50gr per day. I'm getting between 1.3 to 1.5litres of Water. I started at 93 and now I'm at 80kg, 35 and yes I'm tracking my caloric intake... my height is 5ft3
  15. Hi Guys. Hope you're all well? I need some help please. I had my VSG on the 23 July 2018 and since then have lost 13kgs. I have another 20kgs to go but the weight has just stalled. I started feeling hungry about 5 days post surgery and even though I stuck to my diet, still sticking to it, the weight loss is slow and now non-existent. I'm terrified that I won't lose anymore weight it's really stressing me out and this hunger thing is awful. I am taking in my water and protein so I'm wondering what's happening?!? Any advice?
