FEBRUARY SLEEVERS 2013....how you doing after you've been Sleeved

[Evolving 973]

Sleeved 2 months tomorrow (Feb 25) and down 41 lbs. I use myftnesspal to keep track of my calories and Proteins. I decided after my last "stall" maybe it helps to not eat the same things everyday' date=' to keep my body guessing as to how many calories it can count on. So for me, my calories range from 500 to 1100 a day but I still try to keep my proteins up and the fat calories lower. Anyone else seeing something like this?

Also I admit, I'm not into lots of exercise. I just try to move around and do more then I used to. I try to park farther away at the stores, shop longer, keep a cleaner house (lol), anything that makes me get up and move around.

I'm looking for a place in Michigan that offers healthy foods like myfitfoods place (currently only in AZ, IL, CA, ID, TX, OK) . I do go to Whole Foods sometimes for their hotbar but would like other choices.

For anyone in the myfitfoods area they have a great deal for 75- you get 15 meals/snacks which is their 3 day challenge- https://www.myfitfoods.com/products/3-day-challenge

I'm 2 mo tomorrow too!' I will check back in then!!!!

I did well, didn't veer off course and it has paid off. Treated myself to some sugar free pudding tonight! What a treat! :-)

I have had that feeling come and go a few times and it was very weird.

It comes off and on...first thing in morning and late night is most times of day.

Anyone having problems with ears? It is really weird...can't really explain it. Antibiotics from Dr didn't help...netti pot...ear flushing...drops to dry out...tried everything. They are muffled...feels I have been out in cold wind. Has been since sugery. Probably not related..

I am wondering if this is a symptom of dehydration and/or electrolyte imbalance. Or perhaps an allergy? Maybe you should go see your primary care doc if it is continuing to be a problem for you.

Interesting. I have the same problem. I thought I was just weird. For me it is when I don't get enough Water. Once I am fully hydrated it goes away.

Today is 2 months po for me too. I've not lost quite as much as you but understand the bit of frustration over the loss not really showing. My clothes are a bit looser but still wearing most of them. I went from 295 to 253 so 42 pounds. I see a bit less in my upper belly and my arms and thighs.

Have you taken your measurements? You look a lot smaller to me, especially from the back. Remember too, you've only just started your journey.
