What Happened?



Recommended Posts

My journey began 9/12/11. I do not regret it at all, one of the bed decisions I've ever made. I started at 272 and I am STUCK at 212-214. I'm extremely proud of the weight loss. I've worked hard but now every thing I try to lose that last 10-15 lbs are impossible. I do cardio, weights, andand change my calorie intake. has anyone found a way to solve this please help. thanjs

Do you track your food?

Track every bite. I like myfitness pal but there are many sites out there to use.

How many calories a day are you getting to the amount of exercise you do?

If it's too little, you won't lose. Too high and you'll gain. It takes "tweaking" a bit.

You say you exercise, but how much cardio do you do?

My health psychologist educated my support group with this: it takes 60-90 minutes of cardio exercise a day to lose and maintain. Once I did this, the weight came off.

How much Water do you get?

Water flushes you out and I swear makes the fat come off. I hate water but I know I need it, so I enjoy my crystal light additives in it.

Best of luck to you! xx

I like what 4ALongerLife said.

There is an answer. You will find it. We will help if we can.

There's more than one way to skinny a cat! :D

I call my wife DebbieDeb among an endless number of other nicknames, all terms of endearment. :wub:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
