I also had my sleeve done August 31. So far everything seems to going well i get in about 75-86 grams of Protein of course 50 of it is Protein Shake. Ive lost about 51 lbs since surgery date.

I'm a Sept 1 surgery person, so yesterday was 5 weeks for me. :-) These days about half the days I have 2 liquid Protein meals, and one solid, and half the days I do 2 solid and one liquid. I simply cannot take in enough Protein in a solid "meal" to be able to meet my protein goals otherwise. My typical meals are chicken breast shredded, or scrambled eggs with cheese or diced smoked turkey. Yesterday I had 3 (!) Ikea meatballs when we were out at dinner time, so about 6g protein, but very filling. So, later that evening I had a Syntrax nectar Lemon Tea to help top that off.

I've lost about 20 lbs since the day of surgery, but I had lost over 30 in the three months before surgery, so all my "Water weight" was already gone. :-)

I'm a 9/2 girl here!! I've lost 71 pounds since June 5. Since surgery 9/2, I've lost 37 pounds. I'm doing great. Only meats I really like/have tried are chicken breast. I've also tried turkey/beef Jerky and I chew it to a purée and I love that too. Still do not feel hungry at all and have to remind myself to eat. As for "soft" things, I like yogurt, scrambled egg, quaker oats "weight loss" low sugar and fat oatmeal, cottage cheese, lentils, pintos n cheese from taco bell, string cheese, SF popsicles and Jello. liquids, I do 64 oz + a day of mostly pure Water because I love water and also diluted Powerade zero. I will not be having any bread, rice, Pasta or fried foods AT LEAST until I'm where I want to be weight wise. My new miss. Tammy keeps me in check! Although, I haven't gotten sick or thrown up NOT EVEN ONCE!! But I also chew VERY WELL and eat VERY SLOW. So that's a big help. Very proud of no puke since I am frightened of it touching me or getting it on me. It's a fear!

How is everyone doing? I am doing great, no complications. I'm down 69lbs. I was a tight 28 or 3x/4x- now I am wearing 18/20 or 1x and even a few smaller items. I'm getting my life back and couldn't be happier.

I'm down almost 73 pounds (includes 12 pounds on 2 week pre-op diet). The holidays have been a bit of a struggle, and I definitely need to kick the carbs again, but I've still lost some every week. No stalls yet, luckily. I'm also working out 2-3 times per week.

Hi, I guess I'm losing a bit more slowly than you guys but I'm OK with my progress - I'm down 60 pounds and from a tight sz 24 to 18/20. I've lost this much with weight watchers before (though not this fast!) but once I hit onederland, it's gonna be a whole new ballgame!

I'm a slow loser too but I'm losing so I'm happy.

Down from tight 16 to a loose 10, down 42 lbs so I truly can't complain. I've never averaged 10+ pounds a month before so in the grand scheme of things, I'll take it!!

I'm a September 1 person, and another stately-paced loser. :-) I am down 80+ lbs since I started my pre-surgery lose on Jun 1; 40 lbs of that is since surgery on Sept 1. I have gone from a 28+ in pants to a 22 (about to move to a size 20, probably by February), and in tops, I'm now wearing 14-16 at Lane Bryant, and a regular size XXL or XL at Target. However, most of my clothes are custom made by eShakti -- I have lost about 8 inches around my waist, 12 around my hips, and 6 around my bust. :-) In another 5 lbs or so, I will be at my lowest weight in over 20 years. Oh, and I've just taken up Pilates. :-)

Foodwise, I am eating more "regular" things, but in very small portions. I still have at least one Premier Protein shake a day, usually in the morning. I eat a lot of chicken, but also fresh mozzarella with salt, pepper, and balsamic vinegar, and occasionally meatballs. I still haven't really eaten much beef that isn't in meatballs, and spicy food bothers me some.

Perhaps the silliest thing is that my shoes are all getting too big, so I have to replace them all with new smaller ones.
