How are you keeping track of what you are eating? I use myfitnesspal to make sure I stay on the right path. I also keep my FitBit on to make sure I am up and moving.

I'm just past 4 months. My fitnesspal is my recorder. I do a Protein Drink for Breakfast every morning. After that it's up in the air what I eat. I do have my main Protein supplements of tuna creations, baked tilapia, and canned chicken. They're always on hand and I eat a lot of them. I recently slowed down my weight loss but I know it was the choices and quantity of food I was eating. After I corrected my mistake I was loosing at my normal pace again. I'm now into store bought rotisserie turkey breast. I have them cut into steak size and it works out to about 3 oz each.

Canned chicken and tuna are great sources! I add a little bit of olive oil and get creative with salt-free seasonings. Yummy and satisfying. I usually pair with a 1/2 of serving of flatbread or crackers and some fruit or a greek yogurt. I am usually too full to even finish an entire meal.

For me on canned chicken I just drain the Water most of the time but I sometimes add zesty honey mustard into it. As for tuna Creations it's a bag StarKist product. I like the Sweet & Spicy flavor.

Sweet and spicy is one of my favs.

I also dig sushi sans rice.

Just like some of the other people. I keep track of everything with myfitnesspal. I also have a fitbit that I use daily. I try to get 100 + grams of Protein a day and keep my carbs under 40 grams a day.

A typical day for me is up and out the door at 6:30 with a Protein shake made with soymilk and a whey isolate ( prob around 30 grams a protein)

Breakfast is Protein pudding ( 1 box of SF pudding w 1 3/4 cup soy milk and 4 scoops of protein powder). I divide into 6 servings for 6 breakfasts (about 20 grams of protein)

lunch is usually 3 oz. of meat (chicken, turkey, a turkey sausage, or beef) with some kind of sauce and about 1/4 cup of either cottage cheese, edamame, or steamed green Beans

afternoon or post-workout is a Protein Shake this time with Water (about 25 grams of protein)

dinner is usually about the same as lunch, a different meat and sauce)

I am 5 months post op RNY and have lost 105 lbs. so far. I rarely eat out. I've made tons or recipes from Pinterest that I'll change a bit to suit my tastes. I've also cut out all sugar, wheat, Pasta, rice, potatoes, most high sugar fruits, flour, etc. from my diet. I don't miss any of those things at all!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
