WOW!!

I had my Sleeve in May 14 this year,so its about 16 weeks post op...I started going to the Gym on my 3rd week post op.I started workout on Cardio for 1 hour its tough :( As weight lost getting slight better I increase it to 1.5hours and now average is not less than 3 hours, 4 times a week..or sometimes 5 times.

Name it what cardio excersice..treadmill,cross trainner,cycling,rowing,stepper in between lat pull down ..triceps extention.leg press and shoulder press mostly I can take 70lbs.
This is extream for me..especially doing cardio, in total managed to burned 650-700 calories on cardio excluding the weight lift...

Honestly my intake is 500-600 without CARB till now, lot's of lemon juice (master cleanse) veggie juice,fruit juice,lots of soyabean sometimes veggie soup or fish soup just a few spoon..ofcourse not forgetting my NON FAT SUGAR FREE YOGURT DRINK ..

Even now is my 20 days of fasting( from 5.30am-7.15pm) no drink no food till 7.15,I still keep going to the gym for 2 hours and cycle home ...flat waiting for sunset and when its time for me to drink and eat..I just need 1/2 glass of yogurt drink and I feel full..even I sip it slow..

Not only family worried about my eating problems,I myself feel than I just preffer liquid..and WHY MY WEIGHT LOST NOT SO MUCH??I didn't measure my body size,what i can tell U,my watch size reduced..can just drop off..I had it removed 3.5cm and now still loose..my rings fall off..my neck like giraffle...

Sometimes my weight stall !! my stomach is totally flat my bra size reduce 2 size..my pants dropping..

BUT WHY MY WEIGHT LOST JUST LITTLE..?? My hypertention say bye bye..I'm on Iron due to Anemia,calcium.vit B complex,glicosamine for my slip disc..I even had VIT B12 BY injection..My stamina is fantastic as my instructor said to me that even on cardio I still can talk normally even my whole entire is wet..

PLEASE SHARE AND ADVICE ....

Ok, why are you fasting?  Do I have it right, you are not eating anything until after 7:15 in the evening?  Maybe you put your body into starvation mode and it's not giving up anything.

well don't forget that muscle weighs more than fat and if your stomach is flat and your clothes are still falling off you are losing fat which is what you want to lose and to replace it with muscle

people are misguided when thay say muscle weighs more than fat, this is not true, a pound of muscle, and a pound a fat are the same, its just muscle has more dence, it makes you look slimmer, you're burning fat and gaining muscle,so thats why you might not see any changes on the scale. you're replacing the fat for muscle, so a pound is a pound. and the more muscle you have it burns fat faster. but remember theres people on here who've lost a lot of weight without exercising, exercising helps tone your body and keeps you healthier too. but mainly for us it keeps us from gaining our weight back, its another lifestyle change.

Hi Shasha, from what i can see from your post

Even now is my 20 days of fasting( from 5.30am-7.15pm) no drink no food till 7.15,

Why are you fasting? you need to give your body the protien to burn. from all the trainers i have talked to, small meals 5 times a day is better than 3 regular meals or no meals.

plus with all the exercise you are doing, fat turns to muscle and muscle weighs more than fat .. so there could be another reason for the low loss.

your weight loss is not slow lol your at  28 kilos gone that is over 60lbs in 14 weeks that is over 4lbs a week.

It has to be hard with a sleeve doing your fast but i under stand why being your religion so dont push the execise so hard during this month... do make the most of when you can eat and drink, i think your wise doing the fluids because you dont have to wait the 30 mins after eating to drink ans can get re hydrated...

good luck... but when you are off your fast you should try to eat solid food

There was a previous post about this issue. A previous post by you I mean. And your eating and exercise regime. And you had your friend (a nurse) and family worried and you seemed to realize that the way you were eating and exercising wasn't good for you. You can't eat so little and exercise so much, I'm saying it once more. You're really gonna hurt yourself eventually.

It's understandable that you're fasting for religious reasons, but from 7.15 till bedtime make sure you actually eat as much as possible really. You may not be hungry but that's not a reason not to eat. Your body is probably in starvation mode and exercising tones you up but doesn't really make you lose weight, because you're building muscle and muscle weights more than fat and so on. You could do a body analysis and use that as measurement just to know the percentage of fat/muscle/water in your body.

By eating less and exercising more you're not gonna make the weight disappear.
