2 1/2 years post op



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I am 2 1/2 years post op and I've gained 35 lbs. I'm getting married in June and instead of losing weight I keep gaining. Has anyone had the same problem? Does anyone know how what stage should do start on so I can shrink my stomach again?

Any info would be appreciated.

do you need reminder/rules for the sleeve 101??? ;)

tthats ok if you do

don't drink for 30 minutes before you eat

never drink with meals

dont drink for 45-60 minutes after you eat

always drink at least 64 oz of Water a day

eat Protein first (that will make you feel fuller)

watch the carbs

eat on a small plate - moderation is key

use small utensils when eating

thoroughly chew to pieces

eat slowlllllllly

put your fork down after each bite

can you see a NUT???

whatever you lose in the next month - i can see you will be a beautiful bride B)

I don't know how to set up my profile lol

My start weight was 260 I dropped down to 109 and I am now 225. My goal weight is 150.

I have a question for you, how long should I stay on the clear liquid stage?

      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.
