  1. You got this, one thing is for sure with the revision we are more determined than ever before so just keep focused on your goal follow the steps and you’ll get to where you want to go. I’d be looking to hear your success story of losing the 100lbs became coincidentally that is my goal as well and I believe with exercise and following the plan we got this. Wishing you well

  4. Try this site http://www.bariatriceating.com/ Great support and great options for getting that weight gain off and keeping it off, also my doctor suggested colace 100mg once a day with sugar free Fiber chews and that has greatly helped my constipation. Wish you all the best

    48 hour pouch reset?

    I would check out http://www.bariatriceating.com/ they have a link to getting back on track and I've heard several people say there were very successful in losing what they've gained back and also help in getting back on track
  9. I am about 4 1/2 months out and I see so many people talking about stalls but has any successfully broke a stall and what did you do. Yep getting Protein in about 50 grams and yep getting Water in about 50-64 oz of water on good days. Gym is a slight problem working with a healing broken ankle so I am using the bicycle and working with a trainer on strength training. Could my lack of exercise be my issue?

    Is there a way to break a stall

    for me also - when I had a stall I tracked my food on the same program where I track my workouts and saw that I needed to add a snack - calories were a good bit too low. I find my calorie deficit for the day needs to be right around 800 or else I stop loosing.

    Is there a way to break a stall

    @KristinLe Thank you and it's hard not to be hard on myself when I realize I have so far to go. How many calories are you getting in? what is expected at 5 months? My nut is just not giving me a straight answer.

    Is there a way to break a stall

    I am getting in about 600-800 calories Protein is using about 50-60 a day trying to find the right regime to get all my protein in has been the hardest task for me I'll do a Protein Drink for Breakfast and depending on what that is could be 20 or 30 grams of protein and try to get a high protein lunch and dinner so I averaging about 50-60 but then trying to get 64oz of Water in too, whew is like stomach over load I'm stirring clear of carbs at most I think I do about 27-40 grams of carbs a day. I really try to eat right trust me some days are harder than others but I have a goal to reach and that's my motivation.
  13. lol no you are not I be giving it to my husband some times and the poor thing just looks at me like I'm a crazy woman I've been told that our hormones get a little jacked up after surgery I'm about 5 months out and things seem to be calming down a bit just a bit :-)

    Spicy food sensitivity

    I'm the same way sleeved only 4 months and love spicy food but OMG it does not like me any more I was hoping this is temporary, so I'm still waiting and try to steer clear of anything spicy

    Not drinking and eating

    You'll be surprised how much easier it is to not drink while you eat. one your stomach will not let you put too much in too fast anyway and eating and drinking will be so painful you'll avoid it to avoid the pain. I thought the same thing before I had my surgery but it is much easier than you think the only issue I have not is that after eating im so thirsty that I am clocking watching so I can drink :-)

    FINALLY APPROVED!

    After all the prerequisites that were required, and submit to insurance to get denied, to having to complete 6 month NUT/PCP weightloss management, to a PEER to PEER and finally finally finally approved. Surgery Date is December 15th I finally have a date and it just got real for me. I'm super excited but I am also nervous, nervous about the surgery itself and nervous because I don't want to fail I have battled the yo-yo weight thing for so flipping long I want to be healthy I want to be able to climb stairs without feeling like my heart is about to pop out of my chest, I want to be free of being obese and so unhealthy. Any other December sleevers out there that feel like this? Mentors? FB??
