I sent a few days (below) to my dietitian, she gave me a thumbs up on the food but I am still not loosing. I go in for another fill on Monday, maybe I am just still eating too much? What do you guys think?

It doesn't look like you're eating too much, but what you're eating is very different from what my doctor recommends.

I know they all have their own protocols, but mine recommends postponing the addition of potatoes/starchy veggies/breads until at least 75% of excess weight is lost.

His patients do seem to have a higher rate of loss and achieve greater losses than the average.

I'm not suggesting that you dismiss what your doctor and nutritionist have told you, but maybe a little tweaking and substitution--at least short-term--would get you off your plateau :thumbup:

Hi Betsy, thanks for the input! You are the only one who answered me. I know many docs say do no carbs or low carbs but my doc is all about eating NORMALLY. Anything you want in moderation focusing first on Protein, then veggies then fruits & carbs. I need to do better with veggies....I send my doc my food diary and the dietitian and I email a lot.

My plateu is over I think! I am at 196 now and super happy!! WHOOO HOOOOOO!!!!

Today:

Breakfast: 50g 220cal shake

Snack: Yogurt 15g protein 90 cal

Lunch: 2oz chicken breast

Snack: Stick of string cheese 60cal

Dinner: Will be turkey meat loaf & broccoli

What I am eating today for lunch is tortilla chicken from Bandtastic Meals. I carry one of their pre-done meals every day for lunch. They are quick, easy and I dont have to worry about other people in the office asking weird questions about my new eating habitats.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
