Pulled pork. Came right back up. Now I'm trying a Protein Bar. I feel like I'm in reverse. Lately I've been only able to tolerate softer foods.

I tolerated alot of things right after surgery that I dont now. I wonder why that is?? I used to eat tuna salad, fish, and chicken salad and now none of the sit well.

I noticed when I would have a big stall it was because I wasn't eating enough and as soon as I would up by food even by a half an ounce my weight would start dropping again. My dr told me not eating enough is just as bad as eating too much.

Ok' date=' I feel like I'm being way to strict with my diet. I read on here all the yummy food people are having and I really tend to eat the same things. I avoid carbs like the plague (about 30grams or less a day) and about 60-70grams of Protein. But in order to reach protein goal I have to drink two shakes. MFP is set to 500 cals 11grams of fat, 38 carbs 10 sugars and 63 protein. Lately I have been finding I've been going over my fat and sugars which makes me nervous. But I couldn't imagine eating some of the things I'm seeing on here and sticking with my mfp values. Do I change my diet and mfp? What are everyone else's values set at on mfp?[/quote']

I was told to not concern myself w anything but carbs ( but of course being aware of healthy choices). So 20 carbs per day tops. And just eat until satisfied. This works great for me because I crave carbs like crazy when I overdo them. This is seriously the first time in my life I have not had insane cravings:)

You NEED carbs for your brain function' date=' BTW! 80-100 is still considered "low carb". You also want to make this a "lifestyle"... Do you see yourself eating 500cals and 30 carbs for the REST OF YOUR LIFE?? Probably not, but I'm sure you coul adjust your life to 800-1200 cals and 80-100 carbs and make it an actual lifestyle instead of a "diet". Stay far far away from the "d-word" because you're only setting yourself up for failure. Diets are short term, we need LONG TERM results, which is where a new way of living comes in. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' /> good luck![/quote']

My carbs are very low now but you go up slowly on carbs once your goal weight is achieved:)

So had cheese cake factory today:). I got an appetizer. I forget what it is called but it was shrimp and vegetables in rice paper with a peanut sauce and chili sauce. Delicious! I only ate a fourth of it and it was only six dollars ! I also had about one fourth of a low carb cheesecake- quite good!

We went to Wolfgang Puck's pizza Bar. We ordered the prosciutto appetizer. It had the prosciutto, arugula, balsamic, some sort of soft cheese similar to mozzarella... it was completely amazing.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
