Well I had my lap band removed and my sleeve surgery May 21st and since the surgery I lost 12 pounds. Now that I have started introducing more foods into me I have already GAINED 4 pounds back. I am constantly tired "work 8 hours a day and have a two year old" I walk every evening and I watch my fat and sugar intake like my Dr told me to do. I haven't gotten my vitamins started yet hopefully today I can go pick them up. Any suggestions on what to take? Any advice on the gaining? HELP!! Very discouraged after all I've been though with the band not working and now I'm discouraged with this :thumbup1:

How much protein and stuff should I be consuming in one day? I had my surgery May 21st, and thats one thing I wasnt told.. How many calories, fat, protein and what not... Plus anyone found anything out there other then TUMS that work on heart burn? I CONSTANTLY have it day and night... No matter what I eat or drink.... Starts in the back of my throat and goes all the way down...

:crying: Okay so I came here to vent since most of you know where I'm coming from. I had surgery May 21st and went in weighing 257. I came home weighing 244 and then when I started on the mushy stage and the eating what other eat just in smaller portions stage I have gained back weight and back up to 250! Leaving me with 7 lb weigh loss. I've been gettin my protein and calories in and still no results. I'm walking and working out with my wii and about to start my zumba work out soon as it comes in Friday. My parents are telling me they hope it wasnt a waste of money since I had already had lapband and it was a waste. Trouble at home with my husband and just staying depressed now. Any advice on the stall greatly appreciated. I fill like I'm in this on my own right now...

Besides all of this the acid reflux/heartburn is killing me.. It never goes away.... I've tried over the counter stuff and tums and no luck.. Does not getting enough fluids have anything to do with this weight thing??? I just noticed I started this bottle of water at 8am this morning and im not even half way done with it.... Thanks for all the insite... I think I'm going to go back to the mushy and liquid stage... Like I said earlier I'm keeping up with the excercise and food part on th at website.

Thanks and I am.. I'm keeping up with my food and excercise on that myfitnesspal.com

I also hit a stall :thumbup: Surgery May 21st.. Lost 13 lbs then gained 4 back then lost 2 then gained almost 3 back.... I took my first "small jog" last night and it didnt hurt... Just upseting its not coming off as fast as I want.. I have 125 to loose!!!

I totally understand Phat Curves... Personal stuff in my life as well.. The stall on weight loss is making it even worse. Only down 9.4 lbs since May 21st.. Was hoping for more results... I'm constantly tired no matter what I do... This burning in my throat in cheast are constant and its irritating... Glad you had more results with lap band.. Lord knows I didn't.. I feel better just knowing its out of me... I am like you.. Able to eat stuff, but just small portions... I watch my sugar and fat intake and still not getting the results I'm wanting... Hope it gets better!!!

I'll have to go get me some then. From my paper work I have moved up to "what normal people eat just smaller portions of it" Never ate "cottage cheese" never looked apealing lol so whatever floats your boat there :0) Good Luck!!

Hey y'all well thanks for the incouragement... Thankfully it's not that time of the month I "luckily" had that come the evening of my surgery!!! Talk about hectic lol... Pour nurses was running ragged trying to find supplies haha... Hopefully the loss will kick back in soon... Anyone know anything about "whey protein" My cousin which had the bypass said that I should get some of that and it will jump start the weight loss even more???
