A day in the life of a 4-5 month sleever



Recommended Posts

Hi All!!!!

Just checkin in, thought it would be fun to see what a Day in the life of a 4 month sleever looks like!!!

Breakfast for me is 6 ounces of yogurt. I eat the Fage yogurt with the fruit on the side. It is a 190 calories and 19 grams of carbs. That might be too many carbs for some people.

I then fill up 3 -20 ounce bottles of Water and put 1/4 blueberries/strawberries/pineapple in the water.

lunch is 3 ounces of chicken breast, 1 oz veggie with cheese

snack is yogurt or cheese

Another 20 ounce water

dinner is same as lunch

After dinner ill have 2 more 20 ounces of fruit infused water

I just had a hysterectomy so I'm not doing any "planned" activity. Although I do go up and down our stairs throughout the day. Also, whenever I go to the store I try to park out in the parking lot far away.

I dont wait 30 minutes between food and drink, I need to work on that. I feel like I could be doing more so I welcome any suggestions.

Water is 80-100 oz

Calories 950-1000

Carbos under 45

Vitamins are: 1 multi, 2 calcium chews, 1 fish oil.

Liver enzymes were above normal. I stopped tylenol now their normal. I am getting major headaces which I hope are just allergies...everything else has been great.

Any feedback? Id love to hear what your doing?

Hi there,

I am 4 months out also. For me the hardest thing is getting all the Water in. It is a real struggle. For breakfast I usually have an egg or a Protein shake if I am in a hurry. Mid morning I have the Dannon Light and Fit Greek Yogurt. lunch is usually cheese, afternoon snack is a Protein Bar or nuts, and dinner is a Protein and vegetable.

I am doing really well and although the weight loss has slowed, it is still trending down. All the post-op labs were fine so no worries there.

What has helped me the most I think is developing an exercise routine. I go to the gym twice a week and can feel the difference it makes.

Water ranges from 30-70 oz

Protein about 60-80 Gm

I don't count carbs or fat though I am guessing calories are about 900

Vitamins- 1 children's chewable and 1 Calcium chew

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

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
