It could be something as simple as sodium, or even an increase in lean muscle. Just stick with your program, it will all work out.

you see that type of question here a lot. We all lose weight differently, some faster some slower, each persons experience is different. you have lost a little under 15 pounds a month, I would say that is doing well.

I would try to look at it this way. Would having this procedure done improve your health and your overall well being? If it would than I would follow through with it. If you feel it would not benefit you then no.

I started in the gym as soon as my Doc gave me the green light. It was like 6 weeks out, I started off slow and now I do 2 1/2 hours a day at the gym.

if your doc cleared you go for it

This is the time to put the focus on you. This is something you can do, you did it before. It may sound cliché but put your big person pants on and do this for you, and for your physical and mental health. If you truly want this you have to focus on what you want and go and get it. Those who have not walked this road think it is easy, we all know the truth. I think you can do this, the big question is do you believe you can?

I am two years out and I can tell you from my own experiences that I am not as hungry as I was before. Now I have noticed a difference during the times I have strayed away from my diet routine, that I do seem more hungry. just from my own experience I think the nurse running the group is correct. If I stay on track I find myself less hungry, which makes me think there is something to the addicting properties of sugar. Maybe not a physical addiction but at least a physiological one.

times can be all over the board I have seen 3 month 6 months, and in some cases a year. Part of it will depend on you as well as most programs require you lose some weight on your own first.

I think you may be overdue to see your doctor about this problem.

something as little as too much sodium can cause an uptick in weight. not something I would worry too much about, just stick on track and things will work themselves out

NO, and NO. Try to remember your stomach really no longer has the ability to expand with the gas from carbonation like it did before, also you do not want the empty calories.

most people, not all, are put on some sort of acid blocker for a month or two after surgery. I would say give your doc or nut a call and see what they recommend. That is probably the best way to handle it, that way you get thing the way your doc feels is best for you.

it is mostly a precaution. In some people can have increased bleeding risks with HRT, and it reduces any possibility of medication conflicts.

5 days a week 2 1/2 hours a day. 3 mile run on the tread mill then weight work.

you are spending so much time trying to be right that you are totally ignoring common sense here. First off there is no such thing as reversing diabetes that is a total myth. My main point all along is you have had a procedure done that causes most of the people to have key nutritional defiance's just do to the absorbance factors alone. What sort of logic would make you think that depriving your body of these key nutrients like calcium for example, which will already be low is a good idea. just take one moment and ask yourself. If your body is already not absorbing all the nutrients it needs, which leads to health problem, what part of fasting and making less of a supply in a system that already has an abortion issue makes sense.
