This past week made 4 months since my vertical sleeve gastrectomy.... Sometimes I can't believe it's real. As of 2 days ago, I am 75 lbs down since my surgery weight. And I feel FANTASTIC! This is absolutely the best thing I've ever done for myself.

PS: Are y'all still getting the error messages for blogs / gallery??. I'm just dying to update! LOL I have pics of what I've been eating as well as some NSV pics that I can't wait to share.

Looking awesome! Yes, the blogs are down still and it's driving me crazy. Keep up the awesome work!

Great job!!!

Wow that's a lot of weight lost in 4 months! What are you eating and how much are you exercising?

I am 2 and 1/2 months out and down 40 with a similar starting weight.

Thanks!

Basics of my eating:

-3 meals (2-3 oz), 2 snacks(1-2oz)... (my Dr would like 1, but I tend to have low blood sugar after this sx)

- min of 65g Protein. I average between 80-100 g/day.

- min of 60 oz Water

- I eat mostly meat, veggies, and dairy. And some fruit and nuts.

- I had stopped protein supplements but started again when I started shedding (I panicked; it just made me feel better, lol. My Dr. laughed when I told him that.)

- I also have chosen to avoid all bread/pasta/rice etc. I've been very happy with that decision- I thought it'd be more difficult.

I wish the blog/ pic would work bc these details would be in there w/ pics of my food! (Sorry, Mini rant)

Exercise: 1-2 hours a day except Saturday- nothing extreme . And I might skip a day here and there if I had a particularly long shift at work.

I was also down around 40 lbs around week 8, similar to you.

Thanks for the response! We are pretty much on the same wavelength except for the exercise 1-2 hours a day thing. No bread rice or Pasta for me.

Congrats again.
