I'm not a rule follower and thank the heavens above that after 4 weeks my nut said i can try anything in moderation. Just to make sure i get my Protein in and try to keep it low carb. If you give me a set of rules...i'll break them! Which is why diets ALWAYS failed me.

I ate pizza a few times and got really bad hypoglycemia or dumping... they have the same symptoms. I have very slow weightloss and I'm sure it's due to cheating. This week though I have really stuck to my diet and gained 3lbs.

I am 5 1/2 months out and have had pizza multiple times (just one piece) and I have had taco bell multiple times. I haven't tried any sweets or sugar but eat pretty normal just in moderation. I make sure to stay at 1000 calories and 60-80 grams of Protein. I have lost 95 pounds as of this morning :-)

My doc said if you restrict everything for the rest of your life you will lose your mind. Eat things in moderation.

I have lost 117lbs and eat what ever I want.

I eat 4-6 oz. of whatever i want for my main meal. I snack on cheese sticks and crackers or whatevers in the house during the day. I'm going to start drinking my Protein Shake at night to help with hunger. I'm a night owl and find that i really get the munchies after 12 am. I'm a very slow loser also and I know it's because of food choices. I'm too set in my ways to start chewing on a celery stick. Totally not my thing..LOL I'm OK with losing slow as long as i lose something. It's not a marathon race for me anymore. I increased my calorie intake to 875. In a few weeks i'm hoping to get to 1000. My surgery date was April 22 and lost 22.5 lbs....50 something more to go till i hit my goal weight.

I'm keeping it real. When I say I eat healthy I actually try. I'm able to eat what I want in moderation but I chose not to eat whatever I want.

I do eat rice but I'm cutting down. I say I don't eat bread but I eat Tomato mazerella from Starbucks that's bread a different kind but its bread. So that I try to avoid it yes. Soda I crave it during my period but after its over I don't want it & if I have it I vomit. I had occasional pizza & fiesta steak salad from Taco Bell,

I have eaten everything I've wanted... Tried a lot of new healthy foods I never thought I would try. But time to time I've had me a "bad" food. I live in SA texas. We got some kick a$$ Mexican food :-) but with every thing it's in moderation. A few times I've gotten the chip bug in me. But in over a year I have lost 145 pounds. And just the last month I joined a gym. Before that the only working out I did was walking.

My nut Dr.,and shrink pretty much concur on this one.while I'm too early to eat much contraband, they all agree it's not realistic to deny yourself everything for the rest of your life. I don't think it's realistic either, but like everyone has said...moderation.

      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.

      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! 😞
