If you stay with the high quality Meal Replacements and keep up your Vitamins, it can't be that bad for you. I know that my doctor wanted me to move on to more solids when I was slow to do so. I was having problems, and so I slowed my move to solids and re-introduced the shakes a bit. He discouraged it, but not becuase it was bad for me, but because he wanted me to keep moving forward - not backwards.

Why not go 1/2 way and replace 1 or 2 meals a day with shakes and then eat a sensible dinner (sounds like a SlinFast commercial). It might help you get back on track.

You also might want to try and figure out why you are eating what you called "all the wrong foods." Is there some issue that maybe playing a role in your choices? I will admit I eat so little that I do not feel bad if I sneak in a little bit of the "wrong foods." But it is a treat and for the most part I am eating pretty well.

Good Luck!!

Well I just eat out of emotions and that's what has me being overweight in the first place! That sounds better what you suggested 2 shakes and a meal sensiable is the important word! Thanks for the advise I felt so lost today

Feeling lost I think is becoming part of everyday life for a lot of us. Some days are great and others are just stinkers. At least you know that you can reach out here on the site. It is a pretty freindly group of people that all understand the good and bad sides of food.

AND REMEMBER ITS FRIDAY!!!!! Everything is better on Friday. :D

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
