Sleeved 4/22 I have lost 41 lbs. Finally starting to feel like i am understanding my sleeve and how to eat with it.

Sw 287 cw 246

I too was sleeved 4/22 I have lost 29lbs. Can you tell me what you eat a day. I have 2 Protein shakes a day and in usually do 3oz Protein 3 oz of a veggie or 3oz salad I will have 1 snack during the day which usually is fruit. I have not lost anything in 2 weeks and getting depressed. I do have a problem getting all my liquids in. I have to try harder getting the full 64oz of fluids in. Any advice?

Some stalls last a long time but it will kickstart back (at least that's what I've heard). I'd love to hear what people eat. I know that question wasn't for me but I'll share as well:

Breakfast was one scrambled egg (really struggle putting Protein powder in it) with .8 oz reduced fat turkey sausage (kroger brand), and 1 oz unsweetened applesauce. lunch was 2.6 oz light tuna with 1 hardboiled egg, 1 tbsp low fat mayo and some mustard (could only eat half of the portion I made), dinner was 2 oz baked salmon with a little bit of BBQ Sauce on it (NUT will probably yell at me for the bbq sauce) and a 1 oz side of canned carrots, and my snack was 1wedge of laughing cow light cheese garlic and herb with .5 oz stacys naked pita chips.

I'm not allowed to eat raw fruit or vegetables unless completely cooked/softened and I can't have any ruffage yet.

Thanks for the response. I was told I can only have 1 meal with the 2 Protein shakes. So if I have breakfast then lunch and dinner must be a shake. I can have cooked and raw veggies and salad. I was also told no dairy except for Greek yogurt and cottage cheese ( which I don't like). U should try low sodium soy sauce on the salmon it's yummy.

Interesting how every doctor/NUT has different rules. For yogurt I am to have low carb/low sugar which is just about impossible to find. Danon Greek Light and Fit was the closest. I also despise cottage cheese. I wondered if my choice of "cheese" was ok but she seems to think it is. That and hummus is my go-to snack. If I handle 4 oz meals I don't do snack or it's one 2 oz snack. If I'm doing 2 oz meals I try to get the 5 small meals in so that I can take my medicine.

My Dr actually told me to start getting off the Protein Shakes and to get my Protein from food now. I was sleeved 4/24.

Sleeved on 4/24, i'm only down 17 pounds. I'm an extremely slow looser. I was hoping to be down at least 25lbs by now. If it's this slow now then I can't imagine what it's going to be like these next couple of months.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
