I am new. My surgery for the gastric sleeve is 5 weeks from this Wednesday. My goal is to eliminate my sleep apnea and reduce the pain in my back, hips, and knees. I am hoping to reduce my weight by 17 pounds in 5 weeks. I like easy numbers. This would allow me to focus on losing 100 pounds to obtain my goal weight. I have lost and gained so many times I have lost count. I have been following a high protein, low fat, and low carb diet for almost 5 weeks now. I am happy with my ability to lose right now. I have basically been eating the same thing each day so I don't have to think about food too much. Any thoughts or suggestions?
