Recommended Posts

Does anyone know how many calories and carbs you are suppose to have at almost 7 months out? I have been around the same weight for the last two months. Frustrating!!!!!!!!!

I was never told to count carbs....just watch calories, fat and mainly Protein. I am three months out. I stick between 600-800 calories a day and they want me to get in 60-80 of protein a day. I usually only get in about 50 though

i feel better that i am not the only one who cannot manage to get 60-80g of protein!! i usually get about 50g as well. i always feel like i'm failing!

Try having a Protein Bar for Breakfast - that's 20 grams right there.

I am where you are! I hate stalls!!!!!! Mine has been 3 months :unsure:. Maybe I am eating too many calories- I am eating around 1000-1200 with working out 6 days a week and my carbs are around 165g per day and my Protein is 60-90. I think I am going to try in addition to more Water, less calories. This is tougher than I thought it would be but I am still very thankful I have lost as much as I did thus far. I wish you the best- I really hope the scale moves for the both of us real soon. You are not alone!

Around the 6 month mark, I started slowing down in weight loss. I have only lost a few pounds since then. But I was really close to goal. This is frustrating especially if you have a lot more to lose. But it will keep coming off and you will have stalls. the weight does come off at a slower rate, but it does come off. You calories sound good, so maybe check with your NUT and see what he/she has to say....And let us know. Keep up the good work and CONGRATS! You are a success story..... :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
