@@Bluesky1 my protien drink options are very limited cause I'm lactose intolerant. Almost all of the pre made ones are made with milk or milk protien

Hi I was sleeved on 2/23 as well, I started off on the smaller end of the scale at 220, surgery weight 214 and currently 200 at 5ft. I see so many people dropping weight faster than this, am I on track? what r u guys eating at this stage ?

I am also like you. HW 225 SW 212 CW 200 5'3". I am currently on Stage 3 puréed foods. I thought I was the only one with a small weight loss of 12 pounds and almost 4 weeks post op.

I've been having cravings A LOT lately. I miss my old food, but glad for the weight loss. I went out with my husband and I wished I could puree a whole lot of things!

I went to the dr today for my 4 week check up and it was confirmed with their scale that I am 199!! I've been cleared to eat some more soft foods but I have to stop it with the nuts. I thought I wasn't making great process but I can fit XL shirt now instead of 2x so somethings happening and im.happy with it

Yes! Happy 30 whole days! I too hope everyone is doing well.

I'm doing OK, I'm down 22 lbs since surgery. A little disappointed because I wanted to be down at least 30 lbs and be under 200. I'm at 202 right now. Trying to be grateful though, because I sure wasn't losing 22 lbs in a month before surgery!

Still doing puree/soft food. Trying to get my Protein and Water up everyday.

Question....how muh Protein does your Doc suggest. I was told to try and get 50 (and stay away from Protein drinks...if I can), but I felt too weak and increased my protein to 70-85. Even with that much I still feel weak. I tried walking at the gym twice this week, and I was totally on the couch after.

How have you all been?

hey @@Bluesky1 it seems that we are all around the same with the losses so that makes me feel pleased. Awesome job on your weight loss. My doc told me to try to get 70g of Protein in and to try to eat it rather than use the Protein drinks. But she did say 1 Protein Drink a day is fine for now. u just have to watch the sugars and other ingredients that could impact your weight loss. I have to admit I'm struggling a little bit. I had a small Water ice yesterday and a piece of a cupcake. Don't ask me why, I just had a terrible craving for sugar. of course today I started my period which explains a little but I still feel guilty. I knew I wasn't going to be one of the ones to mess up!! grrr but I'm not going to let it get me of course anymore I enjoy seeing the scale go down too much

Yesterday was my first time ever getting in my fluids. I got 70oz in. I'm down to 188. But then Aunt Flow came to visit :'( I'm on soft foods for another 2 weeks then all my restrictions are lifted. Btw if you haven't tried it yet. The laughing cow cheese wedges are AMAZING. :)

I've only lost 16lbs since surgery. So you're doing better than me @@Bluesky1 I was also told no protien drinks. From what I understand fatigue right now is really common. I try to get atleast 60g of protien. Most days it's closer to 70g.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
