Has anyone tried the Advocare 10 day cleanse since having surgery??
-
I've gained 10 back and can see it spiraling out of control if I don't quit eating!! I do good during the week, but the weekends kill me! I have heard that it helps to go back to basics, which helps get your mind and stomach back to what it was after surgery. I've read about others doing the 5:2 diet. Don't get discouraged! Just go back to what you know!

How much are you saving on food, post-surgery?
mcginn0425 replied to SkinnyDown's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I haven't really saved and actually find it so wasteful! I'm not big on taking leftovers, so I always end up throwing out a bunch (unless I have someone to split my meal with). -

I'm 11 months out, so just wanting to try something different to maybe kick start my losing again. It takes me 2 or 3 weeks to lose 1 pound most of the time now.

Can someone explain the 5 day pouch test/reset??
-
I've let my bad habits return over the past week. I find myself eating all the time and bigger portions than I'm used to eating. I feel so bad for letting myself get out of hand. I've lost 114 since my surgery in February, but need to remain focused and hit my 1 year anniversary on a high note! Just feeling down and wondering how others made it through the holidays.

Horrible eating over Christmas

Thank you all for your replies! Glad to know I'm not alone. Going to refocus tomorrow and try to do liquids for a few days. -
Does anyone have any suggestions on healthier versions of their favorite Starbucks drinks?

I'm stuck between 192-195. I need to buckle down and exercise. Plus, cut out alcohol on the weekends! -

I have such a hard time when someone says I'm skinny! I will never see myself that way and don't consider 197 pounds anywhere close to being skinny. Just wish people would keep those comments to theirselves. Most days I look in the mirror and still see a 297 pound woman!

How many calories are you getting at 6 months out?? Just wondering what others are doing at this stage. My doctor hasn't really given me a guideline.

6 months yesterday and have lost 91 pounds. I'm definitely noticing the weight loss slowing down. Frustrating, but I keep reminding myself how far I've come. Starting weight 297, currently 206. Can't wait to get under 200 pounds!! I definitely don't see myself like other people see me and don't like people saying I'm small/skinny (maybe when I'm under 200 I'll feel better). -
