7 weeks post op & 100 lbs down

As of tomorrow, i am 7 weeks post op and 100 pounds down including pre op diet loss (24lbs). i couldnt be happier. i am averaging 3 lbs a day and no sign of slowing down. I was told of a possible stall at 4 weeks but havent experienced that yet. i am working out a lot and doing lots of hiking and focusing on my protein as much as possible. im so excited. i went from a size 24 pants to and 18 pant, and an 3x top to an XL!!! I can even fit the shirts at The Gap! Im ecstatic!! I am taking a trip to pUERTO RICO in april and by then i am estimating that i should be at goal! Very exciting! im so happy

I'm hoping I have some results like this! I'm 27 too and will go back to the gym ASAP. I'm 10 days post op and down 27 lbs. I hit a small stall today because I'm having problems with fake protein. I get to start real food next Wednesday so I'm just trying to hold out for the real deal!

Everyone is different but it does sound like a stall. Everyone has theirs at different points but try possible increasing your Water intake and see what happens. We get so caught up on Protein that we forget our water' date=' especially in liquids phase. After the stall, i bet you will drop a lot!! dont give up![/quote']

Thanks I was thinking I wasn't getting enough water in. I will up that and hope that gets the scale moving again. I bought a treadmill that's getting pit together tomorrow that should help also.

Wow

Congrats. You have done an Amazing job!

i work out 5 times a week including twice a day on the weekends' date=' also i hike often and i do the "Culver city stairs" which is like a mountain with stairs going up forever, i mean there are so many darn stairs and i do that every weekend. . i am eating my Protein shakes for Breakfast or i may have quinoa with dried cranberries and egg then for snack, i have string cheese or fruit or Protein Bars and another shake for dinner. i dont count calories because i am very active and i pay attention to my body. i eat small Snacks in between meals and i drink nothing but Water or crystalite. As soon as i feel satisfied, i stop eating. And i carry healthy snacks where ever i go. I love salad and my fridge is packed with left overs because i stop eating not when i am full but when i am satisfied. i LOVE my sleeve![/quote']

I know all about those "culver city" stairs! Love it, the best view from the top! Keep going, girl! You are in the zone!
