hi there :)

I was sleeved on march 19. I am down 33lb so far but seem to be going a bit slower now. The first two weeks it flew off. Started at 296 and weigh 263 now. I've been doing great but for constant heart burn:( small price to pay. I just started couch to 5k today to be ready for the color run in November. I would like to reach my goal weight by then (160lb)Do you think that is a realistic goal?

I was sleeved 3/19 also. I am down 23lbs. So you are doing great. I have had struggles getting all in but have finally getting more control on it .. can I ask u how much Protein and Water are you able to get in a day?? And I think you have a realistic goal .

I hate the Protein shakes!! Lol but i manage to do 3 4oz serving a day (a 12oz can of go lean) i can consume crazy amounts of Water with i was worried about at first bit my doc said its all good? I work and go to school so Im out of the house 16 hours a day mon-fri i bring 2 44oz jugs of water with me when i leave the house and still drink more than that most days! I am juicing and do Soup but am scared to do anything more. Im taking the bariatric Vitamins and tons of B12 so I feel pretty good and hopefully my weight loss will pick up more when i add in a 30 min run every morning?

I think your goal is pretty realistic! I commend you on running! That's great and I've heard pounds really start flying off with running! I cant wait til i can start running. I dont do Protein Drinks either. What about a Protein Bar, are you allowed yet? They make many different flavors and so many brands. I really like them and they have lots of Protein. In regards to your heartburn, talk to your dr. He can prescribe you something for that. You shouldn't have to deal with constant heartburn, it's no fun. I was on a ppi for the first 3 months to prevent that. Good luck, sounds like you are on the right track and doing great!
