I just wanted to do a little happy dance for being 1/3 of the way to my goal! I am 5 1/2 weeks post op and hit my first goal. When I get down 3 more lbs...I get my first little treat! My hubby set the second goal. So down 50 lbs...100 lbs to go! My next goal is to be down 10 more lbs before Labor Day! I love reaching goals. I like to be a winner, I hate losing so that is why being over weight was such a disappointment for me!

Congrats..super accomplishment in such a short time. Our stats are similar hope I can do as well. What is your typical day of eating look like?

I try to stay under 600 calories a day. For Breakfast I usually have a scrambled egg with cheese. At lunch I have 6 slices thin deli selects turkey (cracked pepper is my fav) and a cheese stick. For a snack I usually have Kroger CarbSmart yogurt or Jello sugar free pudding with 1/2 scoop SimplyRight Protein powder. For dinner I try to cook something good, tasty and low carb. I have tons of recipes I use and found some great ones on worldaccordingtoeggface.com I did the lasagna cupcakes ***ht before last and use my own famous lasagna recipe for the sauce. I use my crockpot just about every day. Then we always add one of the steamers for a side item. Most ***hts I have a snack about an hour or so before bed....I made a low fat sf cheesecake and ate a tiny piece of that for several ***hts (my husbands love it and his piece was anything but tiny) I try to get all my Protein in with out making a Protein shake...they make me feel sick and shaky. I also have to take my Vitamins at ***ht after supper...in the morning make me sick. I do swap up my Breakfast egg for some organice instant oatmeal in the mornings and had 1/2 scoop of vanilla Protein Powder.

I also like to have my coffee with some vanilla Protein Powder as Creamer and I always add splenda!

What do you usually eat???

      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? 🤷‍♀️
