I opted for phentermine as "last resort" type thing to help jump start my weightloss again. I discussed it with my dr and she set up the diet plan to go with it. I'm surprisingly not jittery or unable to sleep. It does somewhat help with appetite. I've been on it for about 3 weeks. I see her at the end of the month and if my progress isn't better in going to have her take me off of it. I'd be happy with a two pound a week weightloss... Im not expecting overnight results. I'm just frustrated.

I avoid Pasta all together. Occasionally I'll have a slice of bread or 1/2c rice, and this is maybe once a week. Other than that, the carbs come from fruits and veggies, yogurt (Carbmaster yogurt) fat free cottage cheese etc. My work outs include both cardio and strength.

I'm eating between 80-100 grams of Protein a day carbs between 40-60. I tried the post op diet a few months ago and lasted a day.

It's been a long time since I've posted... I fell back into bad habits, gained 30 lbs over the last year. I'm two and a half years out from surgery. I'm on a 1,000-1,200 calorie diet AND I'm taking phentermine, and exercising 1-2 hours a day and I'm not losing the weight! I'm so frustrated with myself. I don't understand why I'm not losing. Anyone else who is years out having this issue?

I slipped while making a salad haha like that one

I was sleeved July 18. I'm down 62lbs and been at a three month stall. Love the weight that's off but it's very frustrating when I'm only half way to goal and I can't move past this number on the scale!

Today's snack! http://www.afterthesleeve.com/2013/02/low-carb-crepe-with-strawberries-cream.html#

Hey everyone! So I purchased Zumba for the Wii (and the belt it came with actually fits around my waiste! lol). Does anyone use this and has it helped with your exercise? I have never "Zumba'd" before, and I'm too scared to take a class in public! I have been slacking big time with my walking and diet. It's no one's fault but my own, and it's very frustrating, sad, and depressing. I am out just over 6 months, and have lost 60lbs. I'd really like to talk off another 20lbs by my 30th birthday (April 1), but everytime I think I'm back on track, I slack off again. Does anyone use Zumba on the Wii for exercise? Have you been successful with it?

This looks great! I've made the cauliflower crust pizza before which was pretty good, but this sounds even better! I will definately make this soon.

I was told by my doctor that any medicine is okay as long as it's taken with food. So far I have not had any problems. I too am sick right now, I am taking Robitussin & Mucinex I'm 6 months out, but my doctor told me this when I was about 2-3 months.

I took a snap shot of the nutrition facts when I input it in my fitness pal, this is for a 1/12 serving

Glad you guys liked it! I had a few portions left over and froze them for later!

I'm at about 5 and half months, I stalled around 3 and half and I'm STILL STALLED. I'm super irritated. It's not suppose to last for 2 months.

This is one of my favorite dishes I've ever made!! So simple! Thought I would share! http://www.afterthesleeve.com/2012/12/chicken-tomato-artichoke-hearts.html
