so it has been a year and one month since my surgery and I have lost 140lbs but i still have 40 i want to lose. My problem is i don't know what to eat. At my year appointment he was told me how well i did and see you in a year. I have always struggled with what to eat now i really don't know. what are you all eating a year after your surgery? are you all still doing the same limitations on the carbs? I was suppose to only eat 25 net carbs a day.

My primary focus is reaching my Protein target every day.

I don't necessarily count carbs, but do choose lower carb options and avoid starches for the most part.

I still eat a lot of turkey, tuna, cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, etc.

I would remain low carb until after you reach your goal. What you have been eating seems to be working, why change it? Maybe add in some new recipes for variety but yes, stick with low carb until goal.

I was thinking about that but this is my busy season at work and it's hard to get away. I still may do that. I'm just kind of over meat and eggs lol but it's a necessary evil lol (I'm on a fruit kick right now... apples to be exact)

      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! 😞
