Recommended Posts

I have bypass last July and haven't been able to loss any weight for last 6 months. Not going up, just staying the same. Any advise how to get the weight loss going again?

I dont know. I heard other people mention on a different post that going back to the liquid phase for a few weeks helped get there body losing again. I wish you the best of luck with ur weight loss :)

sounds like you're thrown yourself into maintenance. To lose weight, you'll need to cut calories. Are you measuring/weighing and logging everything you eat? I still do it religiously after four years out, because when I stop (like over the holidays), my weight starts creeping up.

I wouldn't necessarily go all the way back to liquids; most people couldn't keep that up for more than a couple of days, but DO go back to the basics - (dense) Protein first, then nonstarchy vegetables, and then, if you have room, maybe a small fruit or whole grain serving. Track your food intake for a couple of weeks and figure out how many calories it takes to maintain your weight, and then start cutting back - gradually - from that. Lower it by my maybe 100 calories every week or two until you find your "sweet spot" where you're losing weight again.

The fastest way is to create a caloric deficit.

You may really need to take a strong look at your daily caloric intake and reduce it to find the right range that restarts weightloss.

Or when you exercise you don't count the cals burned towards what you can eat for the day.

You are likely in maintenance.

Good luck!

It seems like your stats that are displayed aren't up to date.

How high is your weight right now?

How much did you lose?

How much calories are you eating at the moment?

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
