I love Jason Fung! I also do IF, usually 16 hours. About two times a week I do OMAD. IF has really helped my weight loss stall.
I want to say Dr. Fung also had a video on fasting and reducing excess skin. That is really why I started fasting.
I am just leaving for work, but I will try to see if it was Dr Fung that talked about fasting and it's benefits with excess skin, or another Dr.

Hmmmmm, I'm not a fitness coach, but do you think you are working out too much? If you are not able to eat many calories, and then these long walks and work outs, you will stall some. I am sure you already know muscle weighs more than fat, so there is that as well. You may be building muscle, so do not see a decrease in the scale.
Do your clothes fit more loosely? Maybe that could be a victory to keep positive and help up your mood.
Best regards

How about we all just stop this thread before we go even further from “too far” .... we each have our own plan that works for us in this time frame. We need to support one another not compare one another or tear each other down.

Easy way to distinguish,between the 2 @ K.C..Girl, A tornado does take you to Oz, Toradol takes you away from Painesville.

I'm sure they are the type of people that have been doing this all their lives... Bad behaviors don't start at 32
Oh and I forgot they violated a clause in the Hippocratic oath
"Into whatsoever houses I enter, I will enter to help the sick, and I will abstain from all intentional wrong-doing and harm, especially from abusing the bodies of man or woman, bond or free. And whatsoever I shall see or hear in the course of my profession, as well as outside my profession in my intercourse with men, if it be what should not be published abroad, I will never divulge, holding such things to be holy secrets."

clothes *do, fit more loosely... but not loosely enough, maybe? maybe I need to just drastically reduce my expectations.

real talk: I had the surgery because my diabetes was completely out of control and now my blood sugars are normal, I can drink wine (we're talking 300 calories here, people... I burn it off in less than one walk) and I don't feel sick for the first time in years. there's something about losing a boatload of weight that's so appealing though and I'm not sure this surgery has made that easier?

175 lbs down.  

No, I wasn't discrediting the article. ( my actual wording was, "I am leery") That is not a discredit the study. I'm just saying there is a possibility there may be ulterior motives for these types of studies.

I really like this one. It's not bariatric, but has loads of healthy choices and provides the nutritional information!
https://recipes.sparkpeople.com/

My favorite website ( besides this one) is DietDoctor.com
wonderful Keto recipes and educational videos. I think you can search the recipes for free. I love the educational videos, so I pay the $9.00 monthly fee. If you like the site, you can get a free month, binge on the videos, then quit after your free month.

Thanks for finding and posting that. If anything these researchers receive funding from pharmaceutical companies so it would be AGAINST their interests to find benefit from artificial sweeteners. This is why the have to disclose funding sources and interests in scholarly articles, so these results are really interning!.

Oh, I readthe article.

I am very leery of these types of articles. I bet if we really research this article, we may find that the artificial sweetener companies were somehow involved and or paid for this so called research. Nope, I'm not buying it. However, just because I do not partake in artificial sweeteners, does not mean I judge anyone who does. We all have to do what is best for our weight loss and what works for us.

Hi Ladies! I think I’m a little further out than most of you but I wanted to share in case I can give anyone else hope. I’m nearly one year out from surgery and I’ve lost 70kg (154pounds) since then (no pre op program as I’m Australian). I started at 156 (343pounds) and I’m now 85kg (188pounds).
Today I feel like a million bucks!

Youloook soooo good!!!!!!! Did you do plastic surgery or you didn’t need to?

recent pic, stuck at 222.8lbs...lol

I had surgery almost 10 months ago. Hubby is just eatting better

I remember being pre-op and my favorite thing to do was look at progress photos and dream
I am 6 months, 10 days post op and I am down 128 pounds total. This isnt a very great pic since I have been sick, but i still took it because anything is better than my before!!

Congratulations! I'm glad you're home.

Seems like the Baiatric Pal store has a lot of good choices. Have you taken advantage of their,monthly box? May be a way to try items, if you like any of the tastes you'll know what to order when you place an order the next. time. Think I may order a box myself.😛

Has anyone experienced this post surgery? I could literally care less about eating most of the time. Eating is literally a job. I scrunch my nose at most things. Am I just a bad cook? It’s such a 360 from my pre surgery life. Advice? Does it pass? Obviously I need to keep my metabolism up.
