Hello Raja'! If your surgeon's office isn't giving you much direction, my suggestion is connect to some friends here who are around the same amount of time out from surgery and look at their food logs for suggestions on what you should be eating. If the person is losing consistently, you can mimic their plan (food, calories, protein levels, etc.). I am 3 years out, so way beyond where you are, not to goal yet, but still working the plan and getting there, pound by pound.

Good luck! This isn't an easy journey, but it is well worth while.

Hi Raja, Welcome to the group. This is a great forum to be a part of. There is so much support on here.
I'm in Canada and my surgery won't be for another 2 or 3 months. I enjoy meeting people all over the world.
Although I'm not where you are post-op, feel free to friend me.
Take good care of yourself and have a great day. :flowerforyou:

You have had an amazing loss. But probably going forward you will notice the huge slow down. You aren't carrying those 40 extra lbs with every step. From here on out you will probably notice a succession of stalls and your weight going up...yes, I said up and down. Even when you did nothing different as your fat to muscle ratio shifts and changes. If you keep active and follow your nutrition and calorie guidelines you will lose but nothing like those first weeks where the scale moved almost every day. The most important thing to remember is to not get discouraged. This is a forever lifestyle so there is no rush. You are doing fabulous!

Hi Raja! I had my sleeve done June 6th. My doctor/nutritionist recommends for me 100 oz of fluid daily, and 75-96 grams of protein every day. Now until the 6 month mark, I am to eat 3 oz of protein with each meal, and then supplement the rest with shakes. If you could at least walk 20 every day, that would be a good start on exercise. And take your vitamins and minerals!
