Thank you for posting this! I think we need more support the further we get from our surgery, to help maintain and continue on this lifestyle. I am so appreciative of all the information and posts...
I have not lost the weight that I regained, but I have not gained anymore:) I am still going to the WW meetings, and focusing on healthy eating. I attempted the pouch reset, and honestly the only...
Thank you. I read several of your posts, and that is what inspired me to go to WW. I think with the new WW program, and all the options, it will be perfect for my lifestyle. And making new friends...
Looks like a great trip, glad you had fun!
I agree, it is definitely a learning curve, especially as time goes by. I keep trying to share my journey with everyone who is considering getting the surgery. My mottos is..... "the more you know,...
Thank you Annie! I have been reading through posts and did see that sraebear did WW, and that encouraged me to start. I will check out Myplate as well, it’s always nice to learn about new things. I...
Thank you for your encouragement, and support. I agree the accountability is what I need right now. Success stories like yours, keep me going, and keep me inspired. Thanks for sharing.
Good Morning,
I am 2 years post op, and had lost a total of 85lbs. Unfortunately, I have regained 30lbs..... I attribute some of the regain to prednisone, but most is from stress, and poor eating...
I ate a lot of Greek Yogurt, and some other great protein packed recipes that I found on the Baritastic app. Please take a look at the app, and you will find great options for the different food...
You have not failed, just think about how far you have come! Focus on the positive, you lost 50 pounds, that is amazing! I think Weight Watchers is a great idea, because they can provide a supportive...
Thank you for your post, your situation is similar to my own. I lost 75 pounds in the firs 5 months, and then stopped losing. Right now I am up and down with the same 5-10 pounds. They only thing...
Yes, I started losing hair around month three, and it lasted until month 5 or 6. When I started losing my hair, I increased my protein, and now I am almost 2 years out, and it has all grown back. ...
I went through the same thing as well, and put on a lot more than 5 pounds. I am back on track now, since I started Journaling again. I document everything I eat, I even document my "bad" days. ...
I would try a low sodium, low calorie, high protein snack at night; like turkey, turkey roll ups, string cheese, or greek yogurt. You may just be retaining water. Also, are you exercising during...
Thank you, I feel confident, with a mind reset, I will eventually reach my goals. I appreciate your kindness and encouragement!
Thank you for the response, apparently there is a correlation between my weight gain and the MTX. Just another way Rheumatoid is affecting my life....I refuse to give up though, I have come this...
I hadn’t thought about my medications, until you mentioned it......I restarted my Methotrexate around the same time the weight loss stalled! Ugh! I really hope there is no correlation, because the...
Thank you. I took my binder out last night and started reviewing all the recommendations and rules post op. It was helpful. And I agree, I think it is a mind reset not pouch reset, that I need. I...
Hi Fitchick,
I have been stalled for almost 8 months now. My surgeon suggested a pouch reset, so I started this morning. I will keep you posted and let you know if it works for me. Congratulations...
Good Afternoon,
I was sleeved on 10/2/17 and lost a significant amount of weight quickly in the first six months, 75 pounds. Unfortunately then I stalled, at six months post op, and even gained...
Thank you so much for sharing this! I am 13 months out post sleeve, and have been going back to some of my old habits :( I look forward to reviewing this information.
Congrats on your amazing results, you look great!
Thank you for the suggestions, I have heard about the pouch reset, but may need to do more reading on it. I had also considered weight watchers, and have a friend willing to do it with me so that...
Hi, I need some help and/or advice. I had a gastric sleeve on 10/2/17, and the first 6 months, I lost weight consistently, and I was very pleased with my results. During the 7th month, I had a severe...
