I don't think I'd get through it either. But if you just do chicken you might not get to the veggies. ??? Did you? I'm working on my two bites of Protein and one of veggies. So far it's good, but I think I took one bite too many tonight. Feels gross right now.

I managed to eat about 3/4 of the chicken and 2 bites of veggies lol. It was good though. I think my max capacity is 3oz for right now.

Made a recipe from a Pinterest. Wasn't paying attention and I overcooked the chicken. Tasted good but a little to dry for me. Chewed forever. Ugh.

I have been too chicken to try breast meat lol pun intended 😂

I should see how much I'm actually eating. I'm guessing 2 oz. I will try tomorrow.

I went to get my eyebrows threaded and I always go to the pretzel maker place afterwards to get a large pretzel bites with cheese dip, for my girls and I to share. Well, I can't have any, and I almost got some for my girls but decided against it. So I pick up my little one from her school and go to the store. I ask her what she'd like for a snack. Usually it's chips, cake, etc. but I quickly realized I should give her an option from the produce section so she picked strawberries with chocolate dip. I'm fine with a dip if needed, so yay for the strawberries instead of chips or Cookies.

We're going somewhere...yeah!

Oh and my exercise pants are loose around my thighs especially. Kind of weird. 😊

Hurray for the NSV @Newme17. Sometimes when you give kids healthy choices they surprise us. Kudos to your daughter. My grandson loves fruit so I try to always have some in the house.

i really need to get my eye brows done and my roots are really looking gray.

Thank you. Speaking of gray, I have several strands. But I'm wondering if I lose hair, if it's going to grow back in gray. 😕 Guess we'll see.

My hair is so thick I'm hoping no one will notice if I lose a little.

Same here. I could lose a bit and it might not even be noticeable, so I guess we're in a good position then. Lol

I managed 15 minutes on the elliptical tonight. I don't want to push it too hard especially while I can't seem to get more than 65g of Protein in a day. I am going to add an extra snack of maybe a cheeses stick to see if I can get to 70 g.

how much protein is everyone else getting?

My plan: Min of 60-65, max of 80 for me.

I have no idea what I have been doing, I haven't been counting really. Had a Protein Drink. Drinking a protein Water now. Ate a shrimp. Had some chicken. Had a yogurt drink. If I had to guess, maybe 75???

I would feel better if I was at 70-75g. I don't want to lose too much muscle.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
