Hi - I am seven months out from a GVS and have not been behaving well. I just got my weight loss started again after a 2-3 month plateau (initially lost 40 pounds in about 4.5 months). It may not even be considered a plateau, because I was eating too many carbs and grazing instead of eating meals (easier). I am motivated now to stay on track, and need to begin exercising. Anyone out there who is willing to do a daily check-in with me? I need to be HONEST with someone about my eating and activity levels, but tend to be rebellious, so a gentle but firm touch is needed. Thanks - LuAnn

Part of the bad behavior is not following up with them. I know what to do - just need some accountability. It's been 7 months and I have lost 47 pounds. Since I started eating real food again - not just protein bars and other easy foods that don't require much thought or preparation - the weight is coming off pretty quickly.

@@kimmeesue One of the poster above said something that helped me start losing again. Aim for 600-800 calories, in addition to 65 grams of Protein, <50 carbs and fats. Weighing and measuring drives me nuts, but I use sparkpeople.com to keep up with what I eat, and weight daily to find what works and what doesn't. After two days of losing a pound and a half at 600 calories, I had a lot of sodium and a bit over 800 calories with no weight loss today. I suspect I would have gained due to Fluid retention had I eaten more calories. I gained weight week 3 when we started adding more food - it is hard to keep up the loss of a liquid diet. I have not started exercising yet, but will do so today - I am sure that will help, too. I am not getting enough fluids - that I hope to remedy today, also. Keep trying things until you find what works, I suppose. I have 125 pounds to lose, so it is going to take a while;-)

New here and only one month after surgery. I have only lost 15 pounds - was 18 and weight went up when I started the week 3 diet. I am not exercising yet, and definitely not getting the fluids. I track my food and wonder if others have any idea how many calories they are consuming, in addition to protein, carbs and fat. My calories intake varies from 600-1200. I wonder if not drinking enough water makes a differences in how fast you lose. Any input? When did you start exercising? I thought we had to wait 6 weeks, but now I am not sure.

I'd like to join slim possible on fb. My name on FB is LuAnn Pierce. Tx
