Welcome back

You are not alone in having a gain year’s out. Working weight back down can be done.

  • Some of us change up diet plans – Whole 30, paleo, intermittent fasting, vegan etc. Others do pouch reset. It does not shrink your pouch, it may help to feel restriction more and get back into healthy habits.
  • Whatever plan you choose -Go back to basics: Log your food in an app (myfitnesspal) – stay within your weight loss calories and macros, exercise/activity and hydrate.
  • Get temptation out to the house and go shopping for foods on your plan
  • Years out most of us have extra sleeve space. With all foods allowed on your plan…Eat dense Protein sources and as much veggies as you want until full. Veggies will keep your calories low. The bulk and Fiber will help you feel more satiated.
  • Keep healthy items on hand for sweet and salty cravings
  • Adding extra carbs and real sugar causes you to crave them more. Detox off them. It will help with hunger.

Getting your head back in the game can be a struggle. Here is a link to doing the head work.

We have a monthly weight loss challenge/motivation/accountability thread on this site. Link below.

Hi ! I agree with EVERYTHING above

Also I will also be running a November 2019 challenge that will focus on diet/lifestyle clean up. This REALLY jumpstarts weightloss for most as you pay more attention to the thubgs you let return that add extra cals. Watch for that to be posted soon! You can do this!

      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.
