I’ve started to get hungry now so I think that hormone has returned. I had so much dumping and sensitivity at the beginning but now I can eat anything! Found the holidays difficult as so much temptation and tried chocolate for the first time since surgery and had the worst dumping ever. I’ve looked at doing the reset diet for a few days to see if the helps? Highest weight 303 lbs Surgery weight 275 lbs Current weight 203lbs I had surgery 3 days after you, and I am experiencing the horomonal return too and definite hunger. I did ask my surgeons office for the "reset" so that should help too if you are wanting to test your pouch etc. I didn't really eat anything out of the norm myself during the holidays, probably ate a little more than I should have though LOL!

Its basically where you do the same motions as you did right after sugergy with phase 1-4/5 depending on your surgeons "aftercare" guidelines. I would contact your office and ask if they have one. Mine did, funny enough because I thought it was just some rumor from the rumor mill with WLS patients, not so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some of us have more to lose so it looks like we may have lost a lot more than you have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2foofy4u 3 Posted February 12, 2019 Thanks ladies! Slow and steady, I’ll get there. I had my 6 month check up, I’m at 166. My surgeons “goal weight” for me is 140 (I’ll be happy at 150 but don’t mind going lower) that will put my BMI at 25. I cant wait to finally have a summer that I’m not miserable!

NurseSmiley80 11 Posted February 12, 2019 Hey y’all I know it’s been a while. I had my surgery 7/27/18 heaviest 310, SW 280, CW 212 m, GW 160/170....pants size varies on style from 10-14.... I’m still pushing... I’ve had a few bouts with Constipation but I’m getting better with stool softer n Probiotics which helps on top of lots of water.... I don’t go over 30 carbs per meal n 20 carbs per Snacks. I don’t eat bread, Rice, Pasta, potatoes, no pop, once n blue moon when Period hits I crave chocolate but I sub with Sugar Free Chocolate pudding. It feels good to lose n see the progress n pictures. I’m trying to get into journaling Period not just about food. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
