What a great achievement. What are you eating? I had surgery on 9/27/11 and have lost 40lbs as of 12/2/11.

i stay under 600 cals a day--mainly eating Atkins bars--just really don't want much--walking two miles every morning and one mile at night

Oops, I posted under the actual pic, haha CONGRATS, you have done amazingly well in 3 months!! I see your answers to my question here. Wow, you're the first person I have seen that keeps calories under 600, but it's working for ya. I also was wondering if you were exercising, and I see that you are walking. Do you take Vitamins since your calories are that low? I love the haircut, you look great.

Holy moly you lost fast!!!! Congrats!!!! Have you had problems with your hair falling out?

[tjharmon 11]

i am taking double doses of Vitamins, plus the walking. my hair has not been falling out yet--i sure hope it stays that way, but i am prepared mentally if it does. once a week i boost my calories and eat A LOT of carbs--that seems to be keeping me from having too long of stalls --seems like i loose 5 pounds the day i eat all those carbs--lol

my main problem is that i just don't want anything to eat--nothing sounds good and nothing taste good--well, sweets sound good but i have dumping so that is out!! i am really having to force myself to eat--that is the only problem i have had so far

[tjharmon 11]

oh i forgot--i do have trouble getting protein--i am working on it--i am severely lactose intolerant (have been my whole life) and sleevey does not like eggs, fish, Protein Powder drinks of any kind, and has a hard time with chicken--the easiest thing to eat has been hamburger meat--so i wake up each day as a new chance to get Protein in--i feel great though--i figure before my sleeve all the protein i was getting was around 20g a day...

I have a real problem with the Protein drinks but just found this stuff and my sleeve has no problem with it! I mix it with a bit of milk and frozen fruit. Yum!
