Good for you, keep up the good work.
I am 14 months out.
Was down 110 pounds but have put 20 back on.
Thanks!

Wow!

I watch Dr Duc Voung on youtube and on the classes he mentions After what they call the "Honeymoon" stage they say is harder to maintain and we have to be very strict with our meals.

Thanks!

Yep. I can eat anything I want now. I still have restriction as far as volume but there is nothing that my sleeve can’t tolerate. Which is not good for a food addict like me. Every day is a challenge, some days I do better than others.

What month did your regain begin?

At 8 months the weight loss stopped. I was stalled for 4 months. Weight gain started around 13 months. I just re did the math and I am 16 months out now. My wife and I have a baby mid July and I have put on 20 pounds since then. I am sure some of it is stress eating, but that is no excuse. Most of it is due to poor choices and lack of exercise.

Have you ever considered joining any of the challenges or the intermittent fasting group I'm a part of?

It actually works...

But 90lbs is no small loss and you should be very very very proud

I have thought about going to OA
Overeaters Anonymous but haven’t yet.
I did the sleeve reset diet once and it worked for about a week.
I know 90 pounds is good but I was wanting to lose about 150 total.

I can tell you that intermittent fasting can potentially complement OA because it limits the window of your eating schedule, so whatever you choose, we are here for you as well. And you still have time (maybe another year) to make it to your goal if you choose.

      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.
