How often do you eat? I eat about 4oz. Every 2 to 3 hours. I feel I eat too much is this normal?

This sounds good. Are you talking dense Proteins? I eat less dense Proteins than when i eat soft foods. I don't eat foods that have high carbs and I stay away from foods with sugar bc I'm addicted to sugar.

CONGRATS! You've lost 88 lbs! That's fantastic! Keep ROCKIN THAT SLEEVE! :P

It is recommended that you eat 3 meals and 3 Snacks daily....I only eat 3 meal and 1 snack....I hate feeling full all the time so this is what I do.....A snack is a small amount like a 1/4 cup of nuts.....Forget it....for me....I just eat when I am hungry and that seems to be 4 times a day.......

My surgeon recommended three meals of 2-4 ounces and one Protein Shake a day. Absolutely no snacking in between.

I'm surgeon recommends 3 meals a day. One of these meals is a Protein Shake. He says if you absolutely must, you may have a snack. It's so interesting how surgeons differ so much!

Protein is the secret to weight loss for sure......If you are losing slowly and want to speed the process up...Then drop a couple of snacks.....How ever seems to me that you are doing fine........Keep up the good work!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
