Thank you!!  More fluids???  Aww man, I thought I was doing good...and it's a chore getting 48 oz...lol  Thanks for the advice...I'm definitely getting NO veggies or fruit right now.  I wonder if that fruit/veggie juice would help too?

Congrats on the loss!

On the constipation, really push water - minimum of 64oz, more if you can; get in some good fat (avocado/guacamole, olive oil, nuts); and keep up with your fiber - but remember that fiber needs lots of liquids to work, otherwise the fiber will constipate you too!

Buy some Miralax and use DOUBLE what the label suggests.  It should get things moving, and it's very gentle :)

Our weights were are similar, I got my sleeve 3 weeks ago and I have lost a total of 25lbs whi*****ludes preop and postop weight loss. You look Amazing!! I want to look that good! Can you give me some advice. I am trying to measure my ounces, liquids are easy to measure but foods are hard for me. How many ounces do you eat? How often do you eat? How much exercise are you getting in? Did you have the 3 week stall? I am afraid that is where I am at..

You so great and I want to have that dramatic change and look that great to! Any advice would help alot.

25lbs in 3 weeks is great!!  I think I lost maybe 20 pounds my first month after surgery.  Fortunately, I haven't had a stall yet.  I'll be honest...I don't measure my food.  I can eat so little that it's not even necessary at this point.  I eat what I am comfortable eating and then I stop...which isn't much AT ALL.  I'm also still sticking pretty close to a mushy diet with some food when I feel like it.

I eat greek yogurt mixed with protein for breakfast, usually chili or soup for lunch, and food for dinner but sometimes that's just a turkey slice and cheese.  I do about 30-45 minutes of exercise 5-6 times a week.  I have Wii Fit, Zumba for Wii, and Dance Party 2 for Wii at home and when I can't get to the gym I'll exercise with that.  When I go to the gym, I do about 30 minutes on the eliptical. 

Girl, you will definitely have that dramatic change.  It's coming!!  Tell me how you feel in 4 more weeks...I bet you'll feel great!!
