Any Other Late March Sleevers?

I was sleeved on March 27, 2012 and im down 66lbs since surgery date... however that is deffinately due to the fact that I barely eat at all. I have tried hard boiled eggs (get about 1/2 of the white down and I'm done), mashed potatoes (can have a spoon full or two), I'll snack on some nuts or apple slices, maybe am able to have 3 or 4 very tiny bites of meat before I have no desire to eat any more... I just drink, I drink a lot of green tea, a little fruit juice, the occasional 4-3 ounces of a protein shake before im sick of it, a little coffee (iced)... oh and i had 2 nachos with cheese for lunch the other day... yes 2 nacho chips dipped in melted cheese. I read all these forums about people eating way more then me and I just dont understand what my problem is... am I the only one?

ps. I've told my doctor and all he says is keep trying, people are diffrent, try a new food each week.... so not helpful.

I was sleeved on March 12. I am down 50 high weight was 235. I am able to eat a variety of things but usually only 2 ounces of each thing. I had a rough time about 2 weeks ago with digestion and my nutritionist suggested going back to soft foods for 2 to 3 days and it worked I was able to start eating again. Itsnt the exact same problem but try going back to basics and see how your sleeve responds. Good luck

I was sleeved 3/6 and as of today am down 75 pounds. I eat whatever I want but in small quantities. I can eat 4 or 5 oz of met at a time. I track everything I eat and drink on myfitnesspal.com. I eat around 1000 calories a day, get in about 90 grams of protein and walk on my treadmill for 25 - 35 minutes almost every day.

pleeeaassee tell me how you get in 90 grams of protein????

I was sleeved March 20 and down 83 lbs. I am still not meeting my daily protein/liquid goals but I feel like I eat more than the recommended one to two ounces. I am more like 2-4. My nutritionist told me to stick with 75 grams of protein, 60-70 carbs, 48-64 ounces of water and 60 min of cardio everyday. It seems like a lot but I'll do what I can to stick to the program.

90 grams of protein == greek yogurt & starbucks frap for breakfast(15), can of tuna or rolled up ham lunch meat and cheese for lunch(15 - 20), a premier protein shake either as a mid afternoon snack or after I exercise(30) and 3 - 4 oz of chicken or fish for dinner(21 - 28) and sometimes a glass of 1% milk (8)

Thanks for sharing that Deb.
