Hi all I have a food question.........
Lorraine, do you how many calories and how much protein you get in? I use fitday.com to track my intake not everyday but often. I wasn't eating enough calories and protein so my surgeon told me to add a protein drink everyday and since Thursday I've lost 3 lbs.
Use fitday a couple of days to see what your intake is. You need to have at least 60 grams of protein a day, should keep your carbs less than 30 grams and calories somewhere above 600. I hear different things on the calories so I can't say for sure, but I do know the protein drink is helping me.
Good Luck,
Dana
hi lorraine.
i'll be seven months out tomorrow and think i finally got off a plateau of sorts, too. it seemed i was stuck at 120 lbs down for weeks and weeks. in the meantime, i found i was able to get into the next size down on the bottom, plus, i took the time to re-evaluate my habits. i went back to the basics for a few days just to make sure i was, in fact, following the rules of the pouch. and i started to be more regular with exercise.
it may help if you review what you're doing and eating, just to make sure it's the right stuff.
hope that helps. good luck.
