Just looking for suggestions on how to speed up weight loss after sleeve. I'm 4 weeks post op. I eat more than I thought I would be eating. I'm 15 lbs down post op. 25 lbs lost total, including pre op diet.

You've lost 15-25 lbs total in a month. Would you really want to speed that up? That's greater than the safe recommended loss of 2 lbs per week.

Perhaps we could address your question if you told us how much and what you're eating and how much you're exercising, and your age, height, starting weight, etc.

My doctor suggested a food scale, it can keep you on track with your eating. Make healthy choices! Avoid snacking.

I'm at 4 months post op and i"m down 27 ibs. I think this is where we are supposed to be, I'm happy with the 27ibs loss.

Hi all,

This is my first post. I am 14 weeks post op and have lost 44 lbs. you are doing fine. This is no quick fix. To be really honest I thought the surgery would do it all. Now know I have work to do. Will start walking every day this week. Be kind to yourself. I will be happy with 1lb a week. Job done in about 14 mths.

Eat only protein like eggs, chicken, fish, ground beef, have no more than 20 carbs a day. This is actually most bariatric post op plans. Very similar to Dr. Stillman's quick weight loss plan from the 70's

One plan I read is 70-80 grams of Protein, less then 40 carbs and 700-800 calories.
