Breakfast - whey Protein shake with instant coffee :)

Afternoon snack - WW string cheese

dinner - usually a casserole my sister fixes from Sparkpeople (low fat - high protein)

Right before bed, I have a little cottage cheese because I'm hypoglycemic and will get sick if I don't.

Omg I think I'm way out of whack or something everyone of y'all eat way more than I do :( for breakfast I eat a egg cheese and sausage tortilla thing. Then most days I skip lunch if I do eat lunch its a lean cuisine then dinner I eat either pieces of a whole chicken I cook in the crockpot or I eat steak with brocolli and cheese but I only eat like 6 bites of dinner then I'm done. The chicken in the crockpot is the only chicken I have found I can eat since it sits in a cup of Water and cooks so its rly rly moist to where it just falls apart. Maybe I should try eating more idk

Well, everyones different... If you are having trouble getting Protein down are you maybe too tight? Everyone eats different. I get about 4oz of Protein per meal, then if i can fit in anything else I add that in.

Well dry chicken just won't stay down idk why everything else is perfectly fine. It doesn't matter if I chew dry chicken 50 times its coming back up its feels as if it sits in the back of my throat like I can't swallow it. I do drink Protein Shakes to try to get enough Protein in but I rly doubt I even get enough calories prolly like 600 a day if that

Great ideas! I seem to get stuck in a rut some weeks, and it seems like I eat the same thing over and over.

Breakfast: Click Mocha Protein shake (blended with 12 oz. Water and ice) -- it gets me going in the morning! :)

Snack: Chobani Greek yogurt (if I'm hungry)

Lunch: salad [5 oz. grilled chicken, 2% cheddar cheese (1 oz.), baby spinach (2 cups), and light ranch salad dressing]

Snack: 11 Newman's Own Hi-Protein pretzels with Babybel Light cheese

Dinner: Baked chicken breast (5 oz), steamed zucchini/yellow squash with a little lemon pepper

Breakfast:

I had 2 eggs sunny side up, with 1 light english muffin

Lunch:

Should be the left over chicken salad in my fridge with 2 flat bread crackers

dinner

Either a lean cuisine pizza (omg these are good I'm obsessed with them), or 4 turkey meatballs with mozzarella cheese and marinara

and knowing me, probably a stop for some Pinkberry somewhere in there :D

Do you eat the entire lean cuisine pizza? those are my favorite!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
