8 Years Post OP - Weight Gain
GreenTealael replied to Timetrax's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I may have missed it but what is your caloric intake? A calorie deficit/balance intake is still crucial to weight loss and maintenance. IMHO check that info out first to make sure you aren't eating more than your BMR requires (P.s. I HATE logging food intake because it is ... *t e d i o u s* but every once in a while I need to spot check what I'm doing. I also recently bought a new scale {because my old one was super inaccurate} that checks body fat, muscle mass, hydration, basal metabolic rate, etc. I find these numbers more important to me because they tell a bigger picture of my health) Good Luck❤ -

This was for the BF who does not like sweet potatoes (childish taste buds 😂) so I didn't bother to add any. -

Do you miss food?
GreenTealael replied to Suzi_the_Q's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
TBH fasting (or intermittent fasting) is only anorexia adjacent if someone has anorexia. Otherwise its mainly portion/time controlled eating But to answer your question IMHO plenty folks (without eating disorders) still eat plenty of food, indulge within reason, pare back when necessary and are satisfied Tangentially, I cannot speak to what it would be like for someone with bingeing, bulimia or anorexia... But if those are not things you experience then don't worry about what it would be like for someone experiencing that like your Mom. She will only be able to view it from her perspective. Good Luck ❤ -

Forced to do Bypass
GreenTealael replied to Christina.Rose's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
I understand. I was suggesting that mentally its going to be challenging (but not impossible)since you already experience the shift from greater to lesser restriction & now that the training wheels of restriction is gone, you may have to move forward to another form of structure to continue being successful very best luck to you ❤ -
❤ Congratulations ❤

The status updates don't seem to get much attention. Is there a reason you didn't make a thread out of it?

I didn't want to start a thread because there seems to be a lot of controversy surrounding this particular doctor and I don't totally endorse him or his views... But even a broken clock is right twice a day 😂
I think I will add it to the maintenance thread

I know. I don't agree with him in quite a few things. However, I don't agree with other WLS surgeons on youtube on everything they say. Weiner and Rutledge have good videos out there as well but I don't agree with everything as well.
With this maintenance thing - in the end he talks about framing in a way. Reframe your thoughts and the world will change.
LOL about the broken clock. 🤣

IMHO don't chase restriction or fullness. Please set up systems like an exercise routine & sustainable healthy diet (well within your Surgeon's caloric/macro limits) and live it. If you can't do it long term it probably won't work for you.
