OMg, I'm shocked! But on the other hand, when your only ingesting a few hundred calories a day it's inevitable, right? How do some of you get in 1000 or more?

I drink muscle milk (I prefer the strawberry). but that has 20 gs of Protein in each 1 depending on size you get 20 is from the smallest bottle. and it has 170 calories in it so that's jus a suggestion for you. I know if you are working out and burning all those calories off you can get stuck as far as weight coming off I had that problem. I workout so much that I was burning all my calories I was getting in. But 31lbs that's awesome! you should also take measurements sometimes you can stop loosin an it can be upsetting but if you check those measurements the inches are melting off I had lapband surgery not the sleeve my mom had the sleeve done a month ago and we have found out its very similar she can actually eat more than me. I wish u tons of luck on ur journey! Remember ur new at this there's lots 2 figure out n gradually u will!

Thanks! I haven't started working out yet. But I do walk....a lot. Maybe I'll try some of those higher calorie protein drinks. Good idea, thanks!

How awesome!!

I had surgery on 4/21 too but I haven't gone on scale yet. I'm recovering at my parents place and they don't have one. I was also told that for a little while after surgery, you actually gain weight from swelling and Fluid retention so I've been avoiding it haha if I can make it to my 3-week check up without jumping on a scale, I'm hoping for a fabulous outcome!!! *fingers crossed*

Congrats and keep up the fabulous work!!!

Lol I have gotten on everyday! Some days I was a bit higher than the previous day. But all in all it's been a downward slope. I would have asked them to buy a scale. I just had to know lol.

Congratulations! It's pretty easy to get in 1000 calories once your sleeve is completely healed. I find if I buy an iced coffee, that blows it for me because I like extra cream. So I usually make my own coffee so I can control the amount of half and half. Also, almonds are 170 calories for 28 nuts, so it doesn't take much to OD on them. Some days I am really hungry, most days I am not overly so, so I find it easy to stay at 650-750. Once I reach maintenance, I will only need to add 300 or so calories a day, which is about what a pregnant mom would be told to add to her diet. No biggie. You'll be amazed what your sleeve can tolerate in a couple of months.

I gave in and went and purchased a scale for my parents house!! And I'm down 20lbs from my last weigh in at the doctor on 4/16!!! Yay!

I'm so excited! I noticed the differences in my body, certainly, but having the numbers confirm it makes me so happy! ????????????

Lol I had a feeling you would! My husband told me I feel like a different person. Loving this!
