Weight watcher after 1 1/2 years



Recommended Posts

Has anyone tried weight watcher afterwards? I’m stuck at a 105lb weight loss and can’t seem to lose anymore doing what I’ve been doing all along?

I haven't tried it since surgery, but in the back of my mind, I thought that I might need to at some point. It's helps me to be held accountable to someone else. Just my 2 cents worth :)

It might help if you’re at a calorie goal that syncs up with their points. Otherwise you’d be below their target consistently with no guidance on how to correct it for appropriate weight loss.

I have a love hate relationship with WW. I know it works for a lot of people but I’ve never found long term success with it.

Go back to your nutritionalist and the surgeon for a plan that's suited to your surgery. You have other tools. Use those tools instead of one that is not really designed for your surgically modified body.

Weight watchers is great for accountability, weigh ins, and learning good information about exercise and health. You will need to modify the program though. I actually go to meetings but I do use calories instead of the freestyle program.

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

      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!
