I aim for 850 calories a day. Around or under 50 carbs. 75-90 grams of protein.

I got the sleeve. Loving it!!! Only been sick a couple of times and most of the times it was my own fault...lol

I'm the same way. My first month after surgery I was on here several times a day and now I'm only checking in a couple times a week. I think it's when you feel more comfortable. Also I'm back to...

Congratulations! That is amazing!

Congratulations, ladies! I am about 6 weeks out. My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for 6 years now. We have had at least 2 miscarriages :-( The doctors said I don't have pcos and...

I rechecked my calories. I am only eating between 700-800 a day. The thing that may have been hurting me were my protein bars. Let's just say that they are gone....back to the shakes :-(

I was just curious how many calories you were advised to eat after surgery. I was never given a number post op. I'm 23 days post op. I've been eating about 1000 a day and my protein is between 75-80...

I personally didn't find the surgery very painful. Just uncomfortable with gas.

I will definitely start measuring myself. I was questioning how I can look like I'm losing inches but the number didn't go down. Thank you all for your advice. I really needed to hear from people...

Sorry, I meant thanks, John... Got to love autocorrect on cell phones.

John, thanks for the advice. I will bump up my protein and get some more rest. I haven't gotten to rest that much after surgery because I had signed up for bible school and I had to teach that....

Thank you Melissa, I needed to hear that I am actually on the tight track. I thought I was doing good until this happened. Thanks for the encouragement, I definitely needed it tonight. I was crying...

I'm completely stressing out. I weighed in at 352 pre surgery. I weighed in 8 days later and was down to 338 and this was on a Tuesday. Last Friday, 11 days after surgery, I weighed myself and I was...

Welcome and good luck!

I too struggled with the vomiting from the anesthesia; however, I was fortunate enough to stop vomiting after a day and a half. Stick with your liquids... Best of luck to you!

Good luck with the whole process. I'm now 18 days post surgery. My only issues with the surgery was I vomited for a day and half afterward because of the anesthesia... Other than that... Wasn't too...

That's encouraging news... Maybe once I get further in the journey I won't need them either ... Fingers crossed

Hello,
My name is Becky. I'm new to the forum. I had my surgery 18 days ago. So far it hasn't been that bad. I have been struggling with my protein shakes making me sick, but other than that it...
