3/12/13 date of surgery

5 feet 7 inches

SW- 262

CW- 241

Goal W- 150

I have been discouraged thinking that I had not lost much. But feel better after reading other posts.

Trying to figure out exactly what I should be eating now. I currently eat about 1500 calories a day.

Feel like I am often hungry and thought I would have lost more by now.

Maybe my expectations were unrealistic.

I had a hip replacement and have not been exercising.

Starting a Water aerobics class in May. Hoping that makes a difference. Also, going to start journaling my food.

However... the good part is i KNOW I am eating much much healthier and feeling better. So it has to eventually make a difference. So glad I had the surgery!

Honestly, keeping a journal of what I'm eating has made a ton of difference. I'm just 4 weeks post-op so not exercising more than moderate walking and that's not every day.

You're a couple of weeks farther along than I am, but I have realized the more Protein I'm getting the less calories I eat overall. The Protein keeps me fuller longer. I am also keeping track of my carbs, as I want to limit them. I rarely get more than 600 calories a day.

Whoops I knew I forgot something. Darn it! Surg dat 3/18.

I also won't to share that I had complications (about 4 wks) at the start which I'm sure helped with weight loss. I just started working out at the gym this week.

We are all doing great. Don't get discouraged its just the beginning of our journey. We haven't even gotten out of town yet! Just you wait!

I don't know what's going on with my body...still at a stall of over 3 weeks!!! Went back to shakes and 2 bars/day to mix things up, but keep losing and gaining the same lb over and over!! Had tried upping my calories, but that didn't work for me, plus it didn't make me feel good about myself. I am losing inches tho..any advice is greatly appreciated! Being out 7 weeks, it seems like I would be the veteran giving out advice ..***sigh***

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
