what is the best advice to loosing weight fast after surgery or what diet helped u loose weight quick im talking about 1 years worth?



Recommended Posts

if you get the lap band, a diet is un-necessary

just eat your allotted amount of good quality foods and exercise, and the inches/weight should steadily come off. that is how i am doing it. no tricks, no gimmicks, just doing what i have been advised to do.

Your question is a little confusing. There is no particular diet ith the band... Have to spoken to your dr about getting banded yet?

I followed the doctors instructions, but was on liquids 3 week, then straight to soft foods. It seems every practice has its own regime. You should get details before or immediately after surgery!

YES, by all means stick to what your Dr has set for you. That's what everyone should do. You'll do very well by following the Drs advice.

Have you checked in with your bariatric surgeon or maybe talk with a nutritionist? When you say 2.5 is that cc's in your band? If it is what size band do you have?

The people that appear to lose really fast to me always seem to be low carbers, or those really strict on the Protein first thing.

Personally, I'd rather lose slower, lol.

But what really worked to keep it coming off for me was running - an hour six or seven days a week. I dont do quite so much cardio now, more mixed up and spaced out with things like circuit training and gym work. But to shed fat when you've got lots of it, running really works.

I'm a Protein girl. I eat carbs just enough to not pull my hair out (that falls out on its own anyway) and if you stick to 3 meals a day you should shed weight fast enough.. I get crap for loosing too much too fast but it works for me. I learned a 10 to one plan that always keeps me at about 1000 calories and 100 grams of protein.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
