What is your diet like for a day?..

I'm almost 8-months out and my diet is pretty normal. I tend to stay between 1000-1100 calories a day. I'm bad because I do drink coffee and eat a bag of popcorn all the time. I do try and keep protien first. Good luck.

Nearly 7 months out. 10 pounds to goal.

eggs and cheese for Breakfast, Protein chunks for lunch and dinner;(Chicken or turkey meatballs, left-over whatever), Organo Gold coffee throughout day. I eat left-overs from restaurant visits and what the "normal" part of the family doesn't eat. I try to get some green stuff in every day and a little fruit. Milk on occasion. Lots of Water.< /p>

I don't have any sleeve forbidden foods that I avoid. Small portions, though.

I'm 8 months post op and have reached a plateau! I'm on a horrible sweet binge that I can't shake. I know I have to get back to my Protein Shakes. My initial weight was 287 lbs. I had surgery 12/30/11. I'm down to 205 and can't seem to get under the 200 lb mark. Ive been bad n I have to get back on track!!

I had my had my wls 4/30/12. I try to eat about 800-1000 caps a day. MFP helps me a lot to stay in control of my cals and Protein. I am glad I am not the only one with that is a popcorn head. I love me some smartones white cheddar popcorn. My starting weight was 210lbs now I'm 174lbs I think I'm moving too slow.

I am almost 8 months out. For breakfast i usually have an egg and a Jimmy Dean turkey sausage link, and then some red grapefruit sections from the jar. For snack I have either a cheese stick or Babybel cheese round. For lunch I have ready made Starkist tuna in the pouch on Wasa cracker with cheese under the broiler, or turkey lunch meat with muenster cheese and bread and butter stacker slice. I usuall have about 2 oz. of cottage cheese a day. In the afternoon I have a RTD Protein Drink that has at least 24 g of Protein. For dinner I have 1/2 pork chop or steak, or burger patty, or chicken and some cut up Tomato or green vegetable. I hate ground turkey so i always use ground beef. If I make a batch of won ton cupckaes, I usually make the lasagna, patty melt, or cheeseburger ones, and eat those for lunch instead. I really watch my carbs and do not eat bread anymore. I still have trouble getting in 1,000 calories a day. I don't even count calories anymore, mainly watch my carbs. I am at my goal and I weigh everyday to make sure I am on track. Some people don't werigh ever day, but I always have and always will. It works for me. Luv my sleeve!
