Post op and needing to restart

[HollisAnn 0]

Hi! Despite what my profile says, I’m not pre-op. I just can’t figure out how to change it. I had surgery about 2.5 years ago, and lost around 115 pounds in a year. Since then I have not lost anymore but maintained for a while until about 6 months ago and I started gaining slowly. However, I take full responsibility for this as I basically abandoned my diet completely. I’m wanting to get back on track and I was wondering if anyone had ever done the pre-op liquid diet to kick start loss? If so, how long did you do it? Thanks!

going all the way back to the pre-op liquid diet is tough. Most people just go back to the way they were eating the first year (minus those early weeks when you're just eating purees). They focus on Protein and non-starchy vegetables. Maybe an occasional piece of fruit or whole grain item. Weigh/measure and log everything, just like you did the first few months.
