Progress Slowed

[Last Chance Sue 4]

Hello all. I was sleeved December 19th. I've lost 65 lbs and have maintained it since April. I'm getting pretty off track in terms of eating. Need to stay on this site to keep motivated. I still need to have my hernia repaired but might not do that this year.

Maybe do your preop diet to get things moving. Drink more liquids and get back to working out. You can do it! remember the sleeve will work if you work it

Ok I'm done being cheesy haha

When I was doing my pre-op diet, I wrote something down in my journal that I was keeping on my weight loss journey. It said, "NOTE TO SELF: If you get off track at some point after this surgery, remember how well the pre-op diet worked and DO IT!" The pre-op diet was not a lot of fun, but it did effectively clear my system of sugar and carbs. Once that happened it was much easier to stay on track with the plan. I think now that you are sleeved, it will not be nearly as hard as doing it pre-op but it will help you wash any carbs and sugar from your system that are causing you to crave more and go off track. Then commit yourself to eating good Protein, good carbs like veggies and stay away from the bad stuff. Track your eating in a food diary. It will keep you honest! Good luck!
