Recommended Posts

I will be one year post op oct. 7th. I haven't lost any weight in about a month, maybe two. I haven't gained any either. Any tips or tricks on how to get it going again? I would like to lose 30 more pounds all over, and 7 before oct 7th so i can be 100 pounds down by my surgery date. Any advice would be great!

I'm right there with you. I'll be a year 10/31. I'm staying right at the same weight but fluctuating a pound or 2 up or down. Any advice would be great.

Go back to basics. Protein, Water, cottage cheese, liquid Soups, etc. Balance it with an varietized exercise routine.

Just don't allow your pouch to become lazy/cozy by getting it used to the same foods and work out routine.

I, too have been losing and gaining the same 2 lbs for over 2 months. I'll be a year 10/24 and would like to get down in the "normal" weight range.....21 lbs to go!

I guess getting back to basics is the thing to do!

Are you guys maintaining a food log? I'll be two years post-op on Oct 20th and currently two pounds below my goal weight which I reached about 13 months post-op. I'm absolutely convinced that my log has made all the difference. I'd be glad to share some ideas with you if you're interested.

DL, what food-logging app do you use?

I've used a couple of apps but I started using My Fitness Pal about a year ago. There are a number of good apps out there and most do essentially the same things. The advantage of MFP is their food database which is huge. The bigger database makes logging faster and easier. It also has a bar code scanner which makes it a snap to add anything from a package into your log. Highly recommended.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
