What happened when u dont get enough Protein

Sent from my SM-N920P using the BariatricPal App

Our body does not store Protein (like it does with fat and carbs). If we do not consume sufficient protein, we will not have enough for basic bodily functions and the body will consume its own protein (muscle), which can lead to loss of muscle mass, loss of hair, slow or no healing, heart problems, etc.

We NEED protein for healing and weight loss.

That's a great loss so far! You should add some vegetables, more Protein, and should have carbs at least in your shake. Carbs help our brain function and we do need some of them. Great job!

Talk to your surgeon and nutritionist. You are not giving us enough information to be of any help.

Is this all you're eating? Find out what amount of Protein you should be getting at this stage and track your Protein, carbs and calories. You also need to get in your Water (at least 64ozs).

Hello. My surgery date was April 11th. I am in my sixth week right now. You must make sure and eat enough Protein. My nut says three meals a day supplemented by two to three Snacks per day in between meals. Weight loss at this point is slow but gradual. I don't eat much carbs at this point. I am able to eat what I want but I have not added starches to my diet. Good luck with everything. Stay positive.

@@hova1980 I'm wondering if you have an in person support system surrounding you? Maybe you could ask them to help you with meal planning in an effort to get your nutrition headed in the right direction.

I agree.

I suggest that you make an appointment with your NUT to talk about your concerns.

      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?
