Actually if you focus on Protein it will fill you up and satisfy you with less because it is more dense. But you have to be willing to try it. It is how we are supposed to eat with the sleeve anyway. Cereal and tortillas and fruit are the exception to a sleeve persons diet not a staple. You have to go back to protein first. If you try for a while and you can eat more than 4 ounces then contact your surgeon.

Your life sounds a little miserable now. Maybe if you made the changes it would suck for a while then you would start to feel better and when positive changes start happening you won't feel so miserable anymore. You keep self sabotaging yourself and giving lot's of excuses of why you can't do better. I'm truly worried about you. Only you can decide when it's time to truly make the changes. When I decided to make changes I was pissed off and miserable too. But I was pissed off enough to stick with it and now the pissed off is gone and I'm no longer miserable but proud of my progress . After a while I becomes routine and I don't even think about or even miss the bad stuff anymore. You NEED to stop feeling sorry for yourself and get pissed off. You need to do it for you.

Also... have you noticed that those of us that eat mostly good stuff and go to the gym are not miserable? Something to think about

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
