How is everyone doing? I have had some challenges, but couldn't be happier with my decision! Water is my one issue, it is hard to get my 64.

Height: 5'10"

Highest weight: 374.4lb

Weight day of surgery: 327lb

Weight today: 312.2lb

My average is 2.5lb everyday. I am never hungry, but my stomach does growl?? I am still cooking dinner for my husband, but I love to cook. I just usually take something from his meal and puree it with water. If that won't work, I go for fat free refried Beans and cheese or turkey chili. All still pureed with water, but still better than the Soups the Dr suggested. My salt meter is always going off. It feels like everything is drowned in salt!

So how is everyone doing?

Congratulations on your success!! I've been stalled for two weeks--very frustrated! Doing everything "right", but still stuck. Ugggh!!

The stall will end, keep doing what you're supposed to. Maybe stop weighing for a few days?

I am afraid getting aT Dr in when I go back to work Monday will be challenging too

Yeah, I have some worries going back to work Friday. I hope I can hang until 7th period with enough energy to survive. My water will be in my hand the entire day...hopefully I can get my fluids this way

How is everyone doing?

Had my 3 month check up and I'm down 90lbs, and more than halfway to my goal!!

Aaaaacccckkk! That's awesome! I keep getting stuck. Only at 55 pounds now.

55 is amazing! Keep going!!

June 8 sleeve here too.... 3 month ck on Friday. I am questioning just how I am doing.... I was putting in 12 to 18 hour days -6 days a week from 2 weeks post op until last week and now I'm feel like I just got off a rollar coaster and dont have any good habits in place other than drinking as much water as I can. I'm now going to be working 2-3 days a week and working on our house while my 3 kids are in school so I am going to try my hardest to get into an exercise routine walking hills around where I live and eating correctly.... I know protein first then greens but am I supposed to stay at 2oz 3xs per day and 1 snack? If do then that's what I will do... I had loads of pre op instructions but thats it for postop. Vits, water, exercise and that diet. Could it be that simple?

@@Abbie213 if you're still at only 2 ounces of food per meal and only having 3 meals a day plus a snack, you're probably not getting enough calories or protein. I'm two months out and eating way more. I'd have NO energy to move, let alone exercise. I get close to 100 grams of protein per day. Track your protein, not your food ounces. Good luck.

Congrats on your success. I'm down 77lbs total and 60+ of that since June. I feel great but I still don't push the eating. I eat two to three meals and snack several times. I love Greek yogurt and frozen cherries, sometimes with some honey. I still can eat other things but carbs are gross and take up too much space in my belly! Keep up the good fight everyone!

How is everyone doing? Hit my 100lb two days ago.

Congratulations! !

My weight loss has slowed, but I keep trying to hit daily fluid and protein goals. Started back with trainer 3 times a week. Feels so good to move!

I have found it is still hard to hit my protein goal. We just got placed with our adoptive newborn son, so my attention is off of me which just makes it harder. I did reward myself with some new jeans and a new dress! Not bad for my first clothes purchase since surgery. Jeans are half the size I was.

A 100 pounds and a new son? Whoa, you must be on cloud nine! Congratulations, I hope both journeys bring you much joy and happiness. I'm not sure where you started, but 100 pounds in less than 4 months is wild! Yeah for you!
