If you stay with the high quality Meal Replacements and keep up your Vitamins, it can't be that bad for you. I know that my doctor wanted me to move on to more solids when I was slow to do so. I was having problems, and so I slowed my move to solids and re-introduced the shakes a bit. He discouraged it, but not becuase it was bad for me, but because he wanted me to keep moving forward - not backwards.

Why not go 1/2 way and replace 1 or 2 meals a day with shakes and then eat a sensible dinner (sounds like a SlinFast commercial). It might help you get back on track.

You also might want to try and figure out why you are eating what you called "all the wrong foods." Is there some issue that maybe playing a role in your choices? I will admit I eat so little that I do not feel bad if I sneak in a little bit of the "wrong foods." But it is a treat and for the most part I am eating pretty well.

Good Luck!!

Well I just eat out of emotions and that's what has me being overweight in the first place! That sounds better what you suggested 2 shakes and a meal sensiable is the important word! Thanks for the advise I felt so lost today

Feeling lost I think is becoming part of everyday life for a lot of us. Some days are great and others are just stinkers. At least you know that you can reach out here on the site. It is a pretty freindly group of people that all understand the good and bad sides of food.

AND REMEMBER ITS FRIDAY!!!!! Everything is better on Friday. :D

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
