5 day pouch test is a great start because it retrains your mind and body.

I'm going to try that. It has been just a little over a year since my by pass and and starting to slip back into bad eating habits. I've lost 120 pounds and I feel like I'm at the point where I no longer have a goal to get to so what's the point. I just can't seem to get back on track. I feel like I will always have issues with food. I don't want the food to win. I am very comfortable with my current weight...I think that is part of it. Does anyone else feel like this.........

I am in the same mind set, and I realized that i had finally started to enjoy life and be healthy and nothing, including food was going to drive me back to the weight that I was before. When you see the scale going in the wrong direction, it will be the wake up call you need. So before you see that happen think about where you came from, how had you had to work, and how much more healthy and happy you are now. You also can make a weight lose bucket list and list all the things you couldn't do when you were heavier and make those things your new goal in life.

On Facebook, search for the group:

Gastric Bypass Support & Encouragment.

There is tons of information and support. Check out the Documents, and the BOT (back on track) diet. There's even a "pouch reset" plan. Sleevers join too.... You can do it, good luck!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
