Weight gain. I was 345lb day of surgery. Six months later was pregnant. Six months later had a baby girl. Abbey. She turns 8 march 29th. Then a year later had a son. Yes surgery for me was weight as well as the gift to a family. Now I am back up by 90pounds. Scared. Any thoughts.

What type of weight loss surgery did you have? If you had bypass you might try the pouch test which allows you to understand if you have stretched the pouch. You can google "Pouch test" or 5 Day pouch test.

It basically has you begin the first week as if you just had your surgery.

I would start by totally going back to the basics. liquid diet. And then introduce high Protein, low carb meals back into your diet. Are you exercising? if not, you have to get back on that horse right away, it will help boost your metabolism.

Also make sure you are getting 64 oz. of Water per day. All of those things will help you get back on track.

Good luck!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
