    I clicked on your profile but could not find a link to your inbox. I would love to hear your routine as you've done great! I am definitely in need of some pointers.
  2. Oh yes, I've tried all the fad diets too. I just didn't know if there was a supplement that would boost my metabolism. The reason I'm asking is because I notice so.e people have lost 125 lbs in the same time it's taken me to lose 63. I know everyone's different but I just Ser so many huge losses that I guess I'm disappointed l. I'm older as well.
  3. Thank you so, so much. I just checked out the tdee calculator and entered my info. I'm going to use the micronutrients suggested under the cutting (Lowe carb) tab and see where that takes me. Do you take any supplements to help with the loss (fish oil, Apple cider vinegar, etc)
  4. What is considered dense protein?
  5. I think I do need to up my fluid intake.
  6. Ok, so I am almost 14 months Post-op and for the past month I have stopped losing. In fact, I go up-and-down the same couple of pounds weekly. I find that I am eating more carbs and less protein. In general, i am able to eat more food than I could those 1st few months after surgery. Has anyone re-set their sleeve by returning to the diet that we were following right after surgery? I'm wondering if I should go back to the liquid diet for a week or so and then follow up with pureed foods? Has anyone done this? I want to get back to the point where my stomach feels full faster. Any tips on re-setting the sleeve? Also, I've never been great about getting in all the water. I probably get about 32 ounces a day at most. Has anyone seen a big difference in weight loss when they increased their water intake?

    Wow, you look great! Congratulations on your success. Keep up the good work.
  9. You look great, congratulations. I just reached 1 year and have lost 59 pounds. I feel as though it should have been more than that by now. I keep hovering at the same weight for 5 or 6 weeks now. I'm worried that this is it for me. Did you continue to lose in your 2nd year?

    Hi, thanks for updating. I will be going in October so I will let you know what they say. What are RMR and DEXA composition? Never heard of these.

    This could be mr writing this post. I am also 5'4" ive lost 57 pounds dincr my high point and i now way 183. Pretty similar, huh? I am 11 months out from surgery and I have basically been in a stall for a couple of months. It is very frustrating to see other people lose well over a 100 pounds in the time it's taken me to lose 57. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for those who have done so well, I am just frustrated with my lack of loss. I know I should be ecstatic with 57 pounds gone, and I am grateful. I just need to lose more. When you visit your doctor would you please post any tips that they give you? I would really appreciate it. As I said, it sounds like you and I are in a very similar situation. Thanks

    You look fantastic. Would you mind sharing your routine, such as typical daily food intake (calories, carbs, etc) and typical exercise routine? I would really appreciate any help you can give me. I am almost one year out and only down about 55 pounds. I've been in a stall for 6 or 7 weeks. did you always drink lots of water? Did you eat a lot of protein? I was trying to read the guidelines you posted from your surgeons but I am not able to read them as they are too small. thanks for any help you can give me Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
