My nutritionist never set a clear amount of carbs to limit myself to post-sleeve. I'm just wondering how many grams of carbs do you limit yourself to per day?

My doctor told me not to count carbs or calories because I'm too "obsessive."--- yeah, I think he understands me. LOL

I eat fruits and veggies, and don't count calories or carbs. When you feed your body the nutrition it needs, that hunger craving for carbs vanishes.

I would ask them what their ideal carb intake for you might be.

I keep my carbs pretty low.. I try for no more than 5% of my total caloric intake. I do have to tweak it periodically in an attempt to keep my momentum going and I'm definitely taking in more when I'm PMSing. :)

I don't have a carb limit either. I just don't typically eat any unless in the form of fruits. Pasta, rice and bread are no longer part of my diet since November of last year when i started my insurance-required pre-sleeve diet. When I think I can eat a little and have tried (even pre-sleeve) its made me very nauseated. I just don't go there anymore.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
