i wish i had an answer for you! but im only 20 something pounds in and my underwear already feels like a diaper in the rear end. maybe go to a hanes/bali type store and let them help you find whats best for you...i understand with the heat pantyhose and slim wear is not comfy!

My husband eats what he wants. My coworkers eat what they want. I have never asked for approval for my food so it's NEVER my place to approve others. He is my husband, not my child. He has never tried to sabotage me but I still pick up his taco bell. Get over it. Pity parties everywhere on here lol

my insurance didnt have a requirement but i did have to lose it per my surgeon because of my liver needing to shrink, and 20 lbs in 2 weeks on a liquid for someone who was eating so many calories a day (like myself) was easy, i lost 23 in 2.5 weeks.
i would def voice your opinion to the surgeons office and whoever made the decision to change it. best of luck to you though!

I understand that you're angry and frustrated,but tell me what good giving up would do.
You can do this if you choose to. Well wishes!

I know exactly how you feel...I am facing the same challenge. Had surgery 7/2012, did great...but, as of today have regained 20 pounds . I just joined this site to find the support and motivation. I am 62 yrs old. Sent from my SM-N910T3 using the BariatricPal App

You haven't missed your opportunity. You still have your sleeve inside you. It is ready to do its part if you put in the work to wield it as the tool it's intended to be. Go back to basics. Put Protein first. Make sure you are getting 80-100 grams a day. Make sure you are drinking 64 oz. of Water per day minimum. Don't eat slider foods. Don't graze. Don't eat and drink at the same time. And try to get more active.

Don't beat yourself up! we all say that ! but its easier said than done when its you having the issue, trust me I'm the best cheerleader but when it comes to my plateau i am clueless!
i am constantly trying new things to get past this stall, but i have to def get out of my own mind.
Don;t give up and just keep trying new things. if you need someone to chat with please PM me, i don't know if i give good advice but I am a darn good listener
and who knows maybe we can get through our stalls together~

You really can continue to lose weight.
However, the important thing is that you recommit and take action NOW.
Since you've posted here, it seems like this is a turning point for you.
But nothing will change if YOU don't change your behaviors -- eating, drinking, moving, and other tools (you know what they are).
Recommit. Change. Win!

It is never too late. You still have your sleeve.
Why not make an appointment with your NUT to talk about your goals?
A good therapist may also be able to help you get back on track.
In the meantime, go back to basics.
Follow your program.
Track your food.
Get at least 64 oz Fluid every day.
Meet your Protein target every day. What is your Protein target?
Avoid starches, added sugars (especially high fructose corn syrup), and fried foods.
Take your Vitamins and supplements as directed.
Exercise.
And, Embrace the Stall

Hi all
It's been a while but I feel so guilty and horrible about not using my tool early on to its full potential. I lost my way sometime around the holidays (surgery July 2015) and now feel like I lost the opportunity to really lose the weight.
I've lost 50lbs since July and feel like it's not enough. My HW 291, SW 273, CW 224. I clearly have not made my goal and am having a hard time to refocus.
What has worked for you all?
Thanks for any support and encouraging words you can offer.

Oh sorry got excited and hit the button lol. Starting weight 174. Goal is 160

This challenge will run from 5-30-2016 through 7-11-16 (I didn't want to end ON the holiday). This will give us a total on 7 weigh ins. This is my first challenge as an organizer - so patience is appreciated! I am following the same logic as vsgSarah3 who has done a great job administrating up till now . I will do my best to post to the spreadsheet within 1 day of receiving your weight.
This challenge is for everyone. If you are pre op, post op, in maintenance or looking for some accountability; this challenge is for you! The rules and link to the spreadsheet are below!
Please respond to the post if you are interested and I will add your name to the spreadsheet.
Please Post Your Starting Weight (Weight on or around 5/30) and your Goal Weight (what you would like to weigh at the end of the 7 weeks) at the start of the challenge on 5/30 or before.


Rules:


1. Post your weight on this thread every Monday.

2. If you change your screen name please let me know.
3. If you miss 3 or more weigh ins, I will assume you no longer want to participate and your name will be removed from the spreadsheet.
4. If you miss a weigh in, no problem. Just post it asap.
5. We are all here to support each other, if you post a question anyone can answer.

6. You will know your weight is updated on the spreadsheet once I've liked your post!


The link to the spreadsheet is below! Have fun, and good luck with this challenge!!!
