I am 3 years post op. I was 254 lbs .. i went down to 154 lbs in a 15 months..but my goal is 135..i never reached goal and am now struggling i sometimes go to 158 then i cut out sweets for couple of days and go back to 154 but never less.. Now am afraid that time pass by and i would be able to eat more. At the same time i still have the dream to reach goal .. How do u maintain ur weight other than running? What do u advise me to do?

Hello Everyone I am 11 months PostOp i was sleeved on 15 june 2014, so far I have lost 88lbs , and still have 37lbs more to lose to reach my goal I actually feel that i have made the best decision ever ...but now am hitting a plateau, i havent lost a lb for almost 5 weeks now! I want my friends out there who r years post op and reached their goals or even those who still struggle to do it to share me their experience.. I have a lot of questions and also fears ...how do u reach ur goal? ...are u eating much more now or u can still control it ? Is it hard to maintain ur success ? ... have u gained any weight since then? coz i read here some gained a lot of the weight back ! so how did it work that way? why is that? I hope we can discuss it here ..so we can motivate eachothers , so we can reach goal for those who havent made it yet ..and know how to maintain it for good Thanks Sara

My Nut told me to avoid simple carbs and sweets and to start my meal always with Protein then veggies and then rice or potato if any and to sure work out at least an hour/day to be honest I dont workout everyday, But I beleive i should stick to more restricted diet!

Great Congratulations >>>keep it up .... I was sleeved june 2014 I have lost 88 lbs so far and has 34 more to lose :-)

Thanks for the support and the reply :-) ...so i shall be following a diet now ? .. how u work out 2 times without any carbs? ...do u eat fruits?

Hello Melissa ..am 11 months postop ..i want to ask you about weight loss ..how is it going now ...and do u feel hungry very often ? do u feel like u eat more than the first 6 months ...actuall am hitting a plateau and dont know what to do ..i havent lost any lb the last 5 weeks ..and am very annoyed ..i feel like am not losing any more ..and i wont b able to reac my goal ..????

I like the subject here ..actually am very much concerned about how i will eat later ..and if i would gain the weight back after years of being sleeved! ... I'm 9 1/2 months post-op and so far I have lost 85lbs and i still have 35 lbs to lose ...but actually am hitting a plateau. .i nearly lost 1 kilo last month! I feel like my quantities are getting bigger ..now I can eat like 2 oz protein and less than 1/2cup rice and if i eat veggies than i might only take 2 spoons rice ... I eat 4 to 6 meals a day ..

Thanks Dear for z support :-)..actually am getting to know my sleeve and live with it now ..and am thankful for this and count it as z best decision in my life although am just 3 months ..so no regrets thanks God... but it seems am in hurry to lose weight and dont wanna make wrong choices

Yesterday was my 3 months (post op) visit to the Dr. I have lost 50lbs so far..He told me that I can eat normally now ..just i start my meal with protein then vegetables and carbs comes at last if i can still eat .. thats it! And ofcourse not to forget water n gym. Now that I have been sticking to the rules the last 3 months ..i feel like am lost now and dunno what to do ...am afraid to screw it up ..Also I want to make the best out of my sleeve and keep it safe for good ..I still have almost 75lbs to lose..am i alone in this feeling ?..I feel like a baby idiot ..any advices or help !

i am 24 days now ..I was sleeved on june 15 ..I lost around 18 lbs and then am at a stall for 12 days now ..am in z puree stage but no I didnt try the wetabix

It is ok ...I had my surgery on june 15 ...and had antibiotic a week later ..it hurts a bit and I had to break z pill into pieces to swallow it ..also I had a stall at that week and I think it is related to z antibiotic ..but pounds melt off just after that

Woohoooooow...the scale moved after 8 days!! Lost 6lbs more ...a total of 21 lbs now (sleeved june15)

I had my sugery june15 ..in the first 9 days I lost 15.5lbs and since last tuesday am almost hitting a plateau... does anyone pass thru this ...I was 250 lbs and need to be 130lbs I found this article and it helps calm me down a bit :-) http://www.dsfacts.com/weight-loss-stall-or-plateau.html#.U7BG1Mv8LqB

I made tomato soup and it was great...I made fresh tomato juice then added garlic powder, onion powder, salt n pepper and simmer it for 8 minutes then added skimmed milk (just 4 spoons) simmer it for another 10 min ..and voila

Am june 15 !

I just had my operation on June 15th and yes i had that feeling in my stomach whenever i drink even having small sips ..and am still under liquids and cup of yogurt ..tomorrow I shall visit the doctor to start the puree phase ..
