  2. I'm too a year out I'm approx 17 months out, I was at a stall for 6 months at 185.4 until I gotten a second desk job, the first week was a breeze as I was meal prepping my lunches but as soon as the reality of working two jobs that quickly faded, I was grazing all day on vending machine foods chocolate, chips, candy, and high calorie coffees just to stay awake, until one day, I stepped on the scale and realized in 3 months I've gainined 5.3 pounds i was livid seeing that scale go from 185 to 190.8 I thought well its not that bad so I continued, now I'm 193.4 and started going vegetarian Jan 1st as of march 1 I stop eating junk food and soon will turn vegan for I graze on cheese. This has not been an easy journey I need to lose 20-30 pounds to feel comfortable with myself so I totally understand your struggles, so its back to the basis for me!

  3. Its approaching 1 year post op, how are you guys doing??? I need some input because after my 6 months everything slowed down.....I've slacked off tremendously, no exercise, no Protein shakes, no Vitamins, no healthy eating, no nothing ive been in a bliss for 5 months, even tho I haven't gained any weight, I haven't loss any either. So as of September 1st I started from scratch, 3 days of liquid diet 3 days of pureed foods and started back going to the gym and focused on my Protein Shakes instead of grazing all day, so far 10 days out I've lost 3 pounds...its a start in the right direction. My overall goal is to be a healthy 150 I'll even be happy at 160...I'm currently 182.5 so I know I can do this! I just want to know have any of you made your goal weight as we are 1 year post op!?
  4. I'm 9months post op and having the same problems... I too was slacking on protein and water intake and I haven't been in the gym in about a month....I'm restarting my cycle with one week of doing the liquid diet as if I'm fresh outvof surgery to kick start this weight loss....I've been at a stall for four months and its time to stop bs..ing and kick my sleevey in gear!!! Thanks for this post!!!

    Fell HARD off the wagon ????

    This is so inspiring, I've too fell off the wagon.... July 1st was my 9th month post op and for the holiday weekend I was eating soft tacos and wine, so I've decided to get on the scale and it read I've gained 5 pounds!! it didn't help that I was on a stall for Four months, I was devastated.... I started doing the full liquid diet again and currently will be back in the gym tomorrow... I logged back in to this site for some motivation and glad I've found your post! Thanks a bunch

    6-7months post op

    Thanks for all the suggestions I'm going to see my nutritionist tomorrow I just feel like I'm reverting back to old ways now that my appetite has pick up a bit.. No breads or pastas but just looking for something to eat every hour is annoying so I'll grab a yogurt or some lite cheese...but with doing that I'm not getting in my meals I might just start from scratch and go back to my liquid diet to start again.
