I have found seafood to be the best protein source. Low in calories and fat. I make a lot of crab salad. I use avacodo instead of mayo. I can't believe how much weight you have lost so fast. That is awesome. Feel free to had me as a friend. I'm new at this. I down loaded mfp years ago but just started using it.0

Thanks for the add vicmval. I feel I am losing it slow... I guess it just depends how big you were before surgery..maybe? I still have a 100lbs to go. I joined a gym about a month post op. I go 4-5 times a week.0

It took me a year to lose 110 lbs. I have 30 more lbs to go. It is coming off very slowly. I think you are doing awesome. Going to the gym is key. I just started keeping track of my food it is helping me stay focused. You are way ahead of me. If I was as good as you have been I would be at goal. I'm so excited for you!0

Hello, I'm a newbie also. Just started looking around the sites, and am looking for friends to share ups and downs with and encouragement. I will have my sleeve done on Aug 5th, and a bit scared. Any advice?0

Hi I'm a newbie as well. I just recently had the gastric sleeve on July 18th and and am down 25 lbs from the 2 week pre op diet to almost 2 weeks post op. I will find out if I have lost more at my first post op visit with my doctor. I'm just trying to meet new people. I have never done anything like this before but kinda feel alone in my journey!0

Sweet pea the secret I think is keeping track of what you are eating. Be sure you get your protein in. I just started logging in my food. Wish I had started earlier. Good luck with everything. I'm glad to help in anyway I can.0

Wow Chrystal! That's a great loss for 4 months! It took me a about 6 months to lose 100. You are doing awesome! I too started with over 200 to lose, so we have that in common! Keep up the good work! I was sleeved 3 years ago, but feel free to add me if you want.
