Hello Sleeve Family,

So I am 7 weeks out and decided my cravings for a steak where too strong and I was going to eat a steak. I had my filet and it waqs soo yummy chewed it well but loved every minute of it. So far so good no stomach pain or issues.

I have lost 47 pounds as of today and super excite in my progress. Its hard for me to see my own results in some ways... So I guess 47 pounds in 7 weeks is not bad at all... If anyone hasn't tried the vitatops they are awesome.

Anyone think 47 pounds is not right for my time line?

47 pounds in 7 weeks is awesome! I hope I have those kinds of results... that would put me at Onederland going into summer vacation!

And I can't wait to get through my first several weeks of postop so I can enjoy my favorite proteins again too

Your weight loss is fantastic and it seems like you are losing beautifully so take what I say for my personal experience only.  I could not have eaten 4 ounces of steak at seven weeks out.  I am not even really sure if I can eat that much dense protein today, probably closer to 3 ounces.  I also looked at the vitatops and they do look delicious, but they also contain 20+ grams of carbs per 100 calorie serving and that would leave me craving more carbs for days.  Everyone is different and we all have our own journey, yours seems to be working beautifully for you, if there is ever a glitch, you might want to look at the carbs, but if it's not broken, why fix it?

Well I don't know about timelines and such .. but compared it me it's friggin amazing. Is that your weight loss from your day of surgery weight? Or are you including your pre op diet weight loss in there. If not then heck you are down 20lbs more than I am and we had surgery the same day.

 Thanks guys and yup its my surgery date... I havent decided if its been a blessing that i can still eat anything i want but with super small portions or not.... I do very well at high protein, little carbs... I want to see better results but i am going to let this have its own pace...
