Gaining Weight - HELP!!!



Recommended Posts

My sleeve surgery was in March of 2007 - and I have gained back 15 pounds and I am scared to death. I can't even remember what I am supposed to be eating - help - somebody tell me what I ate post op. All I can remember is popsicles. I guess I lost a few brain cells when i lost the pounds. I know that I need to increase my Water intake - but what Protein should I be eating... I promise to get on the scale more often as well.

ANY and all advice will be appreciated!!! LOTS!!!

main thing is Protein first, stay away from the white carbs, drink lots of fluids and i'm sure it will all come back to you and you'll do fine, good luck jeani

tough love - how can you have forgotten your dietary needs? I didn't think that was physically possible.

Are you in OA? Have you sought therapy for underlying issues?

I'll guess that you aren't tracking your food then. It really keeps you honest, fitday - dailyplate - fatsecret are all online food trackers.

I've heard of some folks here doing a "sleeve cleanse", sort of like resetting the clock, where they go back to a liquid/protein shake diet for a week.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
