Please help - what am I supposed to eat



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

It has been several years since I was banded and I am so ashamed to admit that I haven't lost the amount of weight I should have. In fact I have lost about 35lbs. Managed to keep it off. During this time I got pregnant and have since given birth two years ago.

I want to start my weight loss again but can't find the area of the site that discusses how to get started. I can't remember how much Protein I am supposed to ingest. There is so much going on on the site that I am just lost.

Please help.

Thanks,

first thing. contact your doctor like the above person said you probably need a fill now. YOu need between 60-90 g of protien a day staying with the good carbs and eliminating the bad carbs

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
