Wahoo.. and now im down 94lbs!!!! Well a day of my eating mostly consists of lean meats and cheeses. I eat a variety of meats.. mainly steak bc thata my fave. I dobt eat much fruit but I may get in a lil veggies. I try to do low carb but my nutritionist doesnt speak against them. They actually are for good carbs. My carb intake is usually below 45.. my Protein is usually aroung 80-100. I drink 100ozs a day if not more. I eat 4-5 meals a day.. usually my off days I eat 4 bc I aleep thru 1 feeding. I eat 3 hrs apart. I dobt drink 30 mins b4 eating and I wait 1 hr to start drinking after eating. My calories can range anywhere from 750-950... again depending on how many meals I eat. I try my best to stay active. I go to the gym 2xs a week and do strength training for about and hr each time. I walk 4-5xs a week about 1.65-75 miles. I also have a fitbit zip and track my steps. 10000 steps is what I atrive for but my average is about 8000 a day. I have a rest day where I dont do anything.

I was sleeved on the 26th of Feb, and I have hit my 100# mark loss, however has anyone else noticed a stall in this last month for weight loss. I only lost a total of 4 pounds this last month of July and feeling very discouraged. I lost 5 # the first week then gained 6# the next week, Lost 4# the following and only lost 4# last week. so only gave me a total of 4# lost for the month. I did have a challenge on the second week as we bought a house and was moving so eating out was a bad thing and it showed and not able to stick to my normal routine. I am wondering if anyone has slipped yet and if they are having difficulty in losing any weight now that we are close to our 6 months? Any advice would be appreciated. I am still having a hard time with the Water intake since day one as I was never a liquid drinker to begin with.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      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.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        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.
