Keep in mind I'm 15 weeks out tomorrow! Some days are great others are terrible, I want to eat my arm or my husbands, but then I eat something hearty like soft beef or a mini red potato dressed up and feel better, followed by fruit, Propel and Water... All serving sizes unless Soup are typically 2-4oz in either volume or weight.

What I ate today:
  • Two egg white bites
  • Apple slices with peabut butter and a date
  • Sushi Rice
  • 1 Peanut Butter cookie
  • Non-fat greek yogurt, made locally, with a sliced banana and mashed strawberry sauce & granola
What I ate yesterday:
  • 2 egg white bites - 13g carbs 13gr Protein 170cals
  • 3oz split pea Soup (was still full from egg white bites)
  • 1/2 pc pizza (no end crust)
  • 2oz yogurt with granola, half a small organic banana
  • 1 baby potato chopped and mixed with avocado hummus, seasoned rice vinegar and seasonings
What I ate two days ago:
  • Thai Cashew Slaw ( I LOVE IT)
  • cheese wedge and almonds
  • More Thai Cashew Slaw (no mayo)
  • Pot salad - 1 baby red potato cooked and chopped, with 1 egg, 1/2 of an avocado, cilantro, herbs, green onion other seasoning. Mashed avocado with herbs and other seasonings to make a dressing

Do you snack at all between meals, usually? I can't wait 4 hour between meals, I get dizzy. How do you do it, any smoothies, or otherwise between? Thanks!

I don't snack in the morning at all. I don't feel hungry and have to make myself eat Breakfast.

BUT

When the 4 hours ( sometimes 3.5 or 5hrs) is up I know my a hollow feeling I get in my throat.

Don't get me wrong I feel I could eat cause I want to. I haven't lost that yet or ever lol..

In the arvo it's harder. I eat my "snack" or small meal at around 2 pm and by 4 I'm feel I'm ready to go again. Not because I'm" hungry" but cause I just wanna eat!... I do have the occasional bit in between like cheese etc or a Protein drink but not a lot..

When I roll through the door at home I'm stil straight to the fridge .. but I don't eat it's a habit.

I'll make a cuppa tea. It seems to tie me over till grub time again.

A Protein Drink made with Water would be ok.

Maybe I'm too strict lol

I have a minimiser ring in as well so I'm not sure if that helps me.

I get dizzy but cause I need my meds adjusted.

It's all a learning game and a massive head game.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
