I have recommitted



Recommended Posts

Just start over. I know it's so much easier said than done but it can be done. I saw my new surgeon on Tuesday and I'm already back down 5 lbs.

I know what it is to be frustrated and to eat out of stress and emotion.

Your not alone. There is a lot of help here that's why I came back. Some can be a little harsh. I was on the site earlier this morning and witnessed an e fight but most are very helpful. And ready to give sound advice to help.

Don't give up just go back for your fill, I was dreading it and embarrassed and ashamed but I bit the bullet and back on the losing track. You can do it.

You lost 140 lbs, you can do it again.

I am so with you and everyone posting. I'm trying to recommit myself. I have had a lot go on in the last 2 1/2 yrs, and because of it I have gained major. I can't get into the clothes that I worked so hard to get into. I am planning to schedule an appt with my new surgeon to get a fill. The last time I was checked my port was good, so I know its me. That's a hard pill to swallow, but acceptance is the key to moving forward. So that's where I am. I'm trying to get back on my workout schedule also. I swam today and it felt great. I'm in Zumba and Pilates. This weight will leave forever!

It's sort of modified version of sleeve..no cutting or removal. The fold the stomach in on itself and stitch it. I had it and not in the green but am doing great. Some have band and plication and never any fills

So when did you have it? Was it apart of your initial surgery? Or did you go back and add this?

      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.
