Hi everyone

Today is my first day here, someone from OH invited me, but their profile was gone by the time I got the message, so I don't know who it was. But anyways, doesn't matter, I found you all.

I had the sleeve almost 1 year ago, and have lost 80 lbs. That would be great, but I still have 70 to go and I've been stuck at this 80 lbs for a couple months. I have a real aversion to dieting, having done that all my life, but I can see that now if I want to continue to lose that I need to get over that and start being aware of what I am eating.

So today I started tracking in the daily plate. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how many calories I should be eating at this point? The DP says 1414 to lose 3 lbs a week, but that seems high to me. But what do I know, since I am quite stalled.

PS, I had my sleeve in Mexico, Dr. Alberto Aceves.

Usually if you lose one, there are more to follow. I always lose that way. I get stuck for a long time, then I lose a couple and a few days later lose a couple more. Then I am stuck again for awhile.

And you are absolutely right again! I've lost 3 since Monday! I had forgotten what a great tool that daily plate is, I had not really used it since last year sometime.

Its funny, just a week ago I was feeling depressed thinking that my sleeve was done and I would have to start looking at DS to finish the job. But I think I need to give it more time and I need to get back to basics.

I'm with you on that one! ANYTHING with cheese is wonderful!
