Help....please

I had my sleeve done on May 29, 2014. My surgeon doesn't seem the easiest to ask questions an get a response that is more than just "in time". I have no idea what I should be eating and not nor how often or how much. My family doctor tries to help as much as she can but admits she doesn't have much experience in that area. I have lost 75 pounds so far but the last 6 weeks nothing. At this point I feel like this is just not working well for me or I'm doing something wrong. I try to stay positive but at this point it's very hard. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Jeebus H. Keerist! That is effing criminal -- the way your surgeon runs his business! And one visit every two years for post-bariatric patients? F**k that! I don't know when your surgery was

  • I would think at your point you should be able to eat whatever you want..stick with the basics Protein first , wait your 30 mins before and after eating to drink,..ect. There are a lot of nice recipes

    Does your surgeon ofc have a nutritionist or ofc manager? Start with them. Share you concerns. Have you been writing down every piece of food you put in your mouth? Go back to the pre op basics. Lots

Here's my drs guidelines: 64 oz fluidly a day. 70 G Protein a day. No straws, caffeine or carbonated beverages for LIFE. No bread, rice, Pasta, crackers, popcorn for at least a year. Wait 30 minutes after eating before drinking. Per serving anything you eat should have no more than 5 g fat and 10 g sugar. No more than 30 G protein at a time because your body can not absorb more than that at a time.

When I went in for my 2week check up I wasn't getting in enough protein and fluids. My dr said the more protein I get the more I'd lose. He said it would get easier and it has :)
