Hi I'm in need of someone with who can help me with accountability . I was sleeve in March 2015. I recently had a binge on potato chips and fell into bad habit of frying food. I'm unable to make monthly support group meeting do to scheduling difficulties . The good news is I'm back on track, brought indoor grill. Looking for variety of Protein Snacks. Do have any suggestions . I also went in to see dietian who gave me a journal to track what I eat. I was not paying attention to portions or calorie counting. I would welcome any suggestions/assistance .

Sexy granny, someone told me to get the app diet coach . It has been very encouraging and helpful to me. It has all sorts of things like an avatar you can dress, help keep track of Water intake, daily diary, emotions, which is my favorite because I'm an emotional eater sometimes. You can set it for reminders also . Hope this is helpful. I had a slow weight loss at last dr. Visit only 9 lbs in 3 mos. But I made some adjustments , increased my excerise but still have difficulty measuring my food intake.

Sexy granny when I get a sweet tooth I found that the Atkins Snacks are helpful. They have7 grams Protein 1gm sugar taste pretty good. They have variety also .

Help!!! I'm over three years post op and the last year I have began struggling severely with my eating and weight. I was down to 165 and I'm not back up to 185. I have no motivation no will power the most unhealthy relationship with food. I eat out of boredom, depression, or for any other reason then get mad at my self for what I've done so then I eat some more. It's a horrible cycle that I keep trying to get off of but I get back on low carb for a few days then I just fall off again. I'm lost and don't know where to start!!

Do you have a dietitian? Back to basics can be as simple as prepping healthy meals in advance and sticking with them versus "dieting" and cutting off all carbs or some other extreme (e.g. liquid diet) change that you struggle to stick with. I find it easier to stick with healthy eating when my food is ready to go.

Hi. My name is Carolyn and I am just starting on this process. I had my consultation this week and I really like my surgeon and staff. Over the next few months I have appointments with the nutritionist, cardiologist, etc. My starting height and weight are very similar to what yours was. I really like reading your advice to others and if you wouldn't mind I would love if you would be my mentor!
