Ok so I am about 11 months post op and I want to go back on the liquid diet again... (Stupid Holiday Food) I forgot what does it consist of? I am doing shakes, crystal light, sugar free ice pops

Anyone have any suggestions on workout Routines? Should I be doing a full body work out or should each day I force on a different area?

Hey Guys, So I had my surgery January 5th lost about 90Ibs in the first 5 Months and I cant seem to drop the rest of the Weight. I am so beyond upset with this. What should I do?

So I am struggling with Meals and Snack any advance would be so helpful!!

I had my surgery on January 5th and I am struggling right now. I haven't lost any weight since June and I am struggling to get to the gym and not cheating.

I am slacking so hard right now ... It says I gained weight and I was at a stall since probably June. I have no motivate right now. I am slacking in all the depts. I think I stretched it! Any advice with dieting or work outs would be awesome! Thank You!!

I have the same issue My Cousin just posted a pic and I was in the background and I didn't even know it was me!! It takes a while to get used to it. I had my surgery in January and I still see myself as heavy person!!

I had the same issue! It was the worst thing ever but I promise it gets better!!

I can't lose the last 30Ibs for anything!!

How much coffee is everyone taking in on their post op? I am drinking about 2 cups a day and w/ half and half and 2 Equal!

How much sugar should you be able to take in?

Best Feeling in the world knowing you are in control of your life.

Yes he is very understanding He does know about my surgery and is amazing with it all. 89 pounds in Four Months Friday he just wanted to make me something to eat an I said Oh what about Eggplant not even thinking. When I do go out I make sure its always Healthy!!! I do only order Water when I am out but this was just a first of us having dinner at his place. Next time game on with me bringing my own stuff over. lol

So I just started to date this amazing guy but this is so hard when going out to dinner with him. I stay in my protons sizes but like the other night I ate eggplant parm.1/4 and then took a slip of a shot and then had 1/4 of coffee. This is so hard. What do I do? I am also having a hard time with drinking and eating at the same time now. Ugh I was doing so great then he came in the picture,

Thank You so much!!

@@Foxy_lady 50 pounds that is amazing!!

So these last couple of days I been pointing out all the negative in my looks instead of saying I just lost 83 pounds 3 1/2 months and feel great. I feel like I can still lose more weight in my face My Nose is huge now when I smile I am aging etc.. Anyone else having or had an issue like this.

Yes!!! @@1cutiejulie! I backed out of my surgery twice!! I am 3 1/2 months post op an I am down 83 pounds. Best decision of my life this far. I was nervous wheeling down to surgery and once I stated that they put me right out an woke up in my room a couple of hours later.

@@lmart133 Its just because your swollen now. I remember feeling everything during that time. I was like this is weird. It goes go away after a couple of weeks.

I was told by My Doctor your sleeve can't stretch.( I still feel like I can stretch my stomach) I mean the muscles relax a couple of months after surgery but your stomach can not go back to the size it was.(They removed that part) The people that gain the weight after the surgery is from eating like crap again. I have days I feel more hungry then others and on those does I make sure I am putting Protein in my mouth not junk. I had the same problem with going to the bathroom. I work a Hospital and I went to the ED at work because I didn't go for about 2 weeks and it got to the point my rectum had a pulse because I was trying to force myself to go. (It does get better promise!) I go about every 2 days now which is fine by me because I was going about 8 times a day because of the junk I was eating before the surgery.

I never chew gum. I get the Listerine Strips but today I did and I swallow it by mistake this morning. I haven't had an issue yet so I guess I am good. lol

I just swallow gum what's going to happen?

Its so weird because it really isn't a dumping syndrome kind of thing. I asked my nut she says sometimes that happens randomly and once I release the pressure in my chest I am fine. So I don't really know. its always bile and never food and I make myself vomit.

I do that too. My weight is up and down all the time. My nut says Its normal because of Fluid intake.

Did you eat anything for the rest of the day?
