    I've gained weight

    You are not alone. I'm 3 years out and have gained 50 pounds.. ugh I hate just even typing that out! The best advice I have read is that we still have our tools, so we need to take advantage of that. I've been back on track these last 3 days, I went back to the foods I ate when I was losing (chicken, tuna, cottage cheese, greek yogurt, cheese, low carb veggies) I've been eating Protein first, then LC veggies and it seems to be really helping alot! I've also been drinking a ton of Water and brewed green tea, I never cared for it much before but now I love it. Good thing you're doing something about it now before it became more. Wishing you the best of luck, you can do this!
  5. When your newly sleeved your stomach is still numb and healing so you wont feel that restriction yet. I didn't notice until I started on more dense protein.

    80 grams of protein?

    I wouldn't be that worried about hittinf your protein goals this early out, main thing is to stay hydrated. Alot of us were still on a liquid diet at the time and with how little we could sip we weren't hitting those protein goals yet.
  7. Wishing you the best of luck! I'm 3 years out and have gained some weight back, trying to get back on track.

    1 year out and in trouble

    Wishing you the best of luck! I'm in the same boat as you, coming up on 3 years and gained some weight back. But today has been a good day, cut my calories and carbs down, and started exercising.
  9. From what I heard they will give you a pad to wear so no worries.

    Oil Pulling

    Let us know how it goes for you, I tried a few times but never stayed committed to it.
  11. I wish I could have gotten surgery on my brain, head hunger and cravings have been so horrible lately.

      I know the feeling but the cravings are getting better as time goes by. I think it's because I know it won't taste the same as it use to and I can only eat a little anyway so why bother. I can turn down any food now, even my beloved Mtn Dews, Dr. Peppers and Sunkists!

      I get that way when I am exhausted ...my body is saying rest. I get head hungry when I am tired. Also, eating something a little starchy can cause cravings. Find out what is causing this. Review when your head hunger started ..listen to your body. At least u r aware that it is head hunger.

    Greek cottage cheese!

    Sound's good, hope I can find this, if not I'll just mix up my own.
  14. Nevermind, I didnt notice we had to go to our profile and select our surgery type, I thought it would have it listed on there from the previous site.
