Well its been exactly 2 months today
This operation has changed my life for the better. I've lost 36 lbs without any exercising
I can only take in 300-500 calories a day. The majority of the calories come from my protein shakes.
I can only eat 2 bites of chicken etc. and I am full. No complaints but I would like to enjoy my foods more. That's one reason why I haven't been exercising. I need to conserve all my calories.
I am happy to report I am down 24 lbs. I am really happy with my progress. I also want to thank everyone who helped me with my acid reflux. I started a acid reducer last night and this morning at breakfast, there was no issues with the pain or discomfort.
I know in time I wont be losing almost 5 lbs a week, but my goal is to keep striving for the 199 mark by Dec.
Best of luck to everyone on their journey to health and happiness.
I'm over 4 weeks out and down 22 lbs. This last week I've been losing about a 1 lbs.a day.
I am watching my carbs (staying under 20 grams) One thing I have found for me is when I do low carbs it gives me energy plus the hunger is gone. My calorie intake is less than 500 a day. I barely can finish a chicken strip. I love my sleeve!
