Restart and reset after surprise pregnancy 7 months post op



Recommended Posts

I need some help! My story goes...lost 59% of excess weight...255 down to 170...at 6 month post op checkup. A month later surprise I'm pregnant!! Only gained 16 lbs and had a wonderfully healthy sweet baby boy (child #3!) . I am now 18 months post op and weigh 167. I picked up bad eating habits due to nausea. I am now trying to get back on track to lose my last 27 lbs and need a jump start. Any suggestions or support you can provide would be most appreciated!!!! Thanks !!

MyFitnessPal app for your smartphone, track everything you eat and figure out what your TDEE is with an online calculator, then create a calorie deficit through a combination of diet and exercise. One pound of fat is 3,500 calories...so if you create a 3,500 calorie deficit over the course of a week, you'll average 1 pound lost a week.

Cut sugar and saturated fats, eliminate simple carbs like bread, Pasta and rice, focus on complex carbs. Consider a good Protein bar for Meal Replacement when you're on the go and need a meal. And get in the gym, start pumping some iron! That's the single best solution for calorie burning there is, other than diet...muscle mass :)

Bypass or sleeve. I've read a lot about doing a pouch reset for bypass?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
