Need to reach goal weight.



Recommended Posts

Hello all,

I'm two months away from reaching my 1 year mark. I really want to reach my goal weight. Have any suggestions on how I can get re-focused to reach that goal. Should I go back to one of my phases? Add more Protein? I'm eating what I want but I'm at a stand still and really want to reach my goal weight.

Remind yourself why you got this surgery in the first place. You had major surgery and had a major portion of your stomach amputated for a reason. Keep that reason in mind! Also remember that you have a powerful tool that you can use to get to your goal - your sleeve. You can do this! :1310_thumbsup_tone1:

It sounds you are not sure exactly what to do, food-wise. This would be a good time to check in with your nutritionist.

I find that I do best in keeping to an effective eating plan when I consistently remind myself that I am a bariatric patient and that obesity is a chronic disease and I am under treatment. I was self-pay so I can also fall back on my mantra "I didn't pay $$$ just to sit here and eat like a fool!" This may sound like a bummer but it works for me.

Thank you! That was a good reminder. I need to have that mindset.
