What about some fresh fruit and vegetables? These are easy to pack and carry from home when you are stuck at work for such long hours.

My opinion is that you are drinking too much of your calories, no fresh fruits or veggies. Make a sandwich on toasted bread, or bring cold cuts or mixed tuna/chicken and put them on rice cakes or crackers. Try to stop drinking your meals and eat them, add more Protein and good luck

Try cottage cheese with that fruit!

I love cottage cheese with fruit and cinnamon . Yummy.

I agree, it looks like you need more fruits and veggies in your diet.

If you like chocolate try buying plain Greek yogurt and one box of instant Sugar Free Chocolate pudding mix. Mix the entire large container of plain Greek yogurt and the box of pudding. Then put it all back in the yogurt container. It has 23 g of Protein in one cup.... Of course I dont eat a cup. Kinda tastes like a "faux chocolate cheescake." I keep it in the fridge and have a little occassionally when I have the desire for a treat.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
