Not losing weight



Recommended Posts

I have my gastric sleeve surgery the end of June 2015 and I think I may have stretched my stomach. I will admit I have caved into unhealthy habits and carbonation. I was 354 surgery day and am currently 295. But its been at this weight for almost a month now. How can I get back on track? Any detoxes or specific things to do? Obviously cut out the carbonation again but anything else? I need help guys.

Sounds like you have already begun your turn-around.

Just a few minutes ago, I posted this at the end of my remark:

My mantras for 2016 are:

Eat Leaner -Train Meaner

Get Fit In The Gym - Lose Weight In The Kitchen

Hunger Is Not An Emergency

Walk Away From The chocolate

You have to eliminate excuses and road locks one by one. You'll get there. Please hang around here for support.

I would say keeping a food journal has been my turnaround. Write it down!!!!! Every bite!!!!!

I don't think there are any magic fixes. I would recommend you make an appointment with your NUT to talk about your goals and go back to basics.

Follow your program.

Track your food.

Make sure you get in all of your Protein and fluids every day.

Take your Vitamins and supplements as directed.

And exercise.

You have the tools.

My doctor started me with a life coach in his office after I regained 25 lbs., and after two visits I realized Even though I was eating less than I used to I had resorted to eating the same foods I used to especially over Thanksgiving and Christmas. Six days of writing down every bite I have lost 8 lbs. I could not believe I had wandered off the path of eating the way I should, so easily, with a bite here, and a bite there. I stopped the Life Coach and got back on Bariatric Pal, and am determined to not fall to the wayside again. I WILL write down every bite I take.

@, I am just curious, but do you know what kind of training and credentials the Life Coach had?

I am exploring what I want to be when I grow up and am intrigued about this as a possibility, at least on the side.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
