So I'm almost a year out. I'm still losing but fairly slowly. I feel like I can be eating better as I tend to hit some carbs & sweets probably more than I should. It happens! But I want to get my diet back in check. I was considering doing the ol clear liquid diet for a few days in attempt to reset my mind and body & diet. Has anyone done this or anything similar to get back on track? I'm not trying to be one of those people bypass didn't ultimately work for and gain it all back. I'm terrified of this.

When I used to diet, I found it helpful to start with a "cleanse." Making a drastic change in my eating habits for a few days did seem to help me take my diet seriously. For a while. But now I'm leaving the diet mentality behind. Now I'm concentrating on nutrition and controlling recreational eating for the long term.

I'm almost 2 years out and am holding steady within 4 pounds. I really want to lose about 16 more pounds. I am also afraid of gaining the weight back. I thought about going back to Protein Shakes with some salads to try to jump start. I know many people have done a 5 day pouch test. I am also consider in this as an option. Good luck!

What's the pouch test. I remember reading about it in my early days but didn't pay much attention at the time...

Wow! That's great! I think patience is your key being only a few months out. I remember the feeling though. The loss will kick in again. I swear your weight will settle in for a good period of time occasionally. I hated it. More will come off, trust!

      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! 😞
