So what's your Eating Rules Score?



Recommended Posts

Have you read the wonderful - and potentially life changing - WLS book from Clifford Thomas: Skinny Jeans...at last! ?

If you haven't and you've ever struggled with losing, maintaining or even the dreaded re-gain then this is THE BOOK for you! (I'm not getting any endorsement, apart from feeling amazing again since I've read it...)

So, if you've read it then I'm curious to know: what's your Eating Rules Score?

I'd like to start a little research on my own here, correlating the ERS with losing success.

Let me know your current score and how are you succeeding.

For example, my score currently is 73 (out of 100) - and I gained 15lbs in the last 12 months and couldn't get rid of UNTIL NOW.

Today is a New Day - I'm committed to push my score as close to 100 as possible, and I believe this will be my magic bullet to get to goal... I'll report my score weekly and looking forward to the changes!

If you don't mind me asking, what in general is the book about? I have not heard of it. I was thinking of getting it if it was any good. I guess I could look it up just being lazy I guess plus curious of your opinion. Thanks

In very-very general terms and absolute nutshell: how can we achieve long term success with WLS, why do we fail, what to do to turn things around. It was a real eye opener for me (although you suspect the basis we are hardly given such straightforward answers to burning issues like re-gain.)

My eating rules score for the week (Mon-Thur so far) is a goodly 90!

Major improvement from last week's 73. However, I haven't weighed in this week as I'm gearing up to start carb cycling next week so weigh-in is scheduled for tomorrow.

Anyone else got their scores is?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
