Its approaching 1 year post op, how are you guys doing???

I need some input because after my 6 months everything slowed down.....I've slacked off tremendously, no exercise, no Protein shakes, no Vitamins, no healthy eating, no nothing ive been in a bliss for 5 months, even tho I haven't gained any weight, I haven't loss any either.

So as of September 1st I started from scratch, 3 days of liquid diet 3 days of pureed foods and started back going to the gym and focused on my Protein Shakes instead of grazing all day, so far 10 days out I've lost 3 pounds...its a start in the right direction. My overall goal is to be a healthy 150 I'll even be happy at 160...I'm currently 182.5 so I know I can do this! I just want to know have any of you made your goal weight as we are 1 year post op!?

It's the same with me. Lost about 65 lbs so far which I'm thrilled with but just been stuck for about the last three months. Noticed about that 6 month mark I started feeling a little more hungry also. Getting busy again this month tho with the exercise and focusing on that Protein and Water so hopefully like you I'll see that 150 mark :) we got this!

Hi all, i had my revision band to sleeve surgery 13th oct 2014. I have lost 150lbs (yes a whole person) as of last week however i have a fair way to go. I am happy with what i have achieved to date.

I had my surgery out 29th 2014 I started out at 241 and I'm not 185. After about 6 months the weight loss was much slower and I've been stuck at plateaus. I'll go down 3lbs then up 3lbs etc.. My goal is 150 but I'm worried that now I'm almost a year out my goal seems impossible... Everyone tells me how good I look but I'm not seeing it. I feel like my stomach hasn't changed the only change I have noticed is my butt and boobs are smaller those 2 areas I didn't really care if I lost it's more so my stomach, arms, and thighs. Arms seem to be the hardest and I hate that they are flabby. I'm not going to be doing any plastics so I'm trying to find ways to tone up these specific areas.

      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.
