It's so hot here & I have a hard time eating when it's hot but I do get in 2 shakes which is 60g. And my air conditioning just went out 2 days ago so I was hoping I'd sweet some off lol.

Had my 2 month post op with surgeon today. Down 51 lbs - Yay! All my blood work came back awesome. Protein was spot on, B-12, D3, Iron, Calcium, etc were all in check. He couldn't be happier. Told me my insides should be healed and that my outside entries looked excellent as you can barely tell I was even cut. I go back to NUT next week when she's probably going to raise my calories. Already getting 70-75g of protein per day staying in the 500-600 calorie range. Only thing I haven't been able to do is exercise. Going to an orthopedic doctor 7/7 to go over Xrays that were taken of my right shoulder and knee which are both killing me. Other than that I'm full of energy, in the pool most days and just loving life. I hope everyone else is doing great :)

Definitely getting at least 64oz Water daily. At least 60g Protein too. I got sick of Protein Shakes, So I add a scoop of GENEPRO to my morning yogurt, I buy the Chobani Flips, they're soo good!!

lunch is usually some type protein, sometimes as simple as cottage cheese with fruit, or chili. I sometimes buy a grilled chicken wrap from Wendy's and just scrape out the insides and eat it without the tortilla.

I also use Pure Protein, Protein Bars. Higher protein and low sugar.

I usually eat 3-4 times daily, sometimes a snack of cashews.

I wish I could have nuts, but was told not to. Keep up the great work!!

I've had nuts, but only cashews. They're more "buttery" than most nuts so when you chew them there's hardly any crunch left. I eat them with cheese to keep things soft. It's technically a "no-no" for me also but sometimes I need something small to take a headache or craving away. Sometimes I need some crunch, soft foods can get really boring.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
