I am nearing 6 months post op.
I find I can eat nearly anything now. However, I am seeking feedback from people 6 months or more out on how much they are able to eat.
I find I am eating a cup and a half quite easily at a sitting.

Just bragging that for the first time ever, I got through Christmas and actually lost weight
Had a tiny Christmas dinner and a small glass of wine and it felt great!
4 months post op and 14 lbs away from losing 100 lbs.
Goal for month of January is to be 240 lbs.
Good luck to fellow sleevers.

Hi All
I am seeking advice from you veteran sleevers.
I am 3 weeks out and have not dropped any weight.
Do I wait patiently or is there somethin I can do to kick start it?
FYI ... I am getting 60 g protein in a day, maybe 10-20g carbs and under 10 g fat.
The only thing I can figure is I am not getting enough water, which happens to be only about 48 oz/day.
Any advice would be appreciated.

I realized something today.
My wife has not asked how I am feeling since surgery or made any enquiry as to what I am consuming on a daily basis.
I guess you could say she has offered NO support whatsoever.
Anyone else experience this from their spouse???
