Protein is very hard to get in for me as well, Protein pudding has been the only way for me to get it down, I had the rny on Jan 22, I’ve lost 35 pounds already, welcome to the site

Hi Thanks for replying, you have done really well! What else has helped and if you dont mind what Protein pudding have you been having? I'm a bit stuck on food choices

1 box sugar free pudding
2 cups skim milk
2 scoops 60g Protein powder

Mix chocolate Protein Powder with the milk and mix well then follow the directions for the instant sugar free pudding box

I usually make this last 2 days so I get 60g protein each day

I also eat scrambled eggs, usually 1/2 to 1 egg

Broiled fish
Chicken salad with light mayo
Egg salad light mayo
Lots of sugar free popsicles
Fat free cheese sticks
Natural apple sauce
Organic 3 Beans in can
Cottage cheese
But I only eat about 1/4 cup at a time

      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? 🤷‍♀️
