I am post-op 11 mos and I have slowed down way too much. I no longer have drive or energy to do what I know to do. Need some encouragement...I am not hitting my weight goal at my year mark in a few weeks. How can I get it going again...thoughts?

I think if I were in the situation you are in right now, I would go back and look at my before and during pictures. I'm betting seeing the HUGE change would give me enough of a kick in the pants to get going again. Or perhaps go back to basics for a few days, and sort of reset your stomach and metabolism. There is also something called the five day pouch test that may help you. Try not to get too discouraged. You've come a looong way and worked hard to be here, and you'll be able to keep going because you already know you have the strength. Take care and be kind to yourself.

Try reviewing a couple of weeks of your food diaries. You may find that you've been more liberal than you'd been previously. Also do yourself the favor of recalling that few goals have an end date. It's the doing that achieves the goal, but there's no calendar attached. Certainly not when it comes to weight loss. You're still losing, so relax. You're doing/getting what you set out to do nearly a year ago. You're way ahead of the game.
