One thing that will help is go back to your basics. Make sure you get in enough Protein and your Water. Also maybe up your exercise. I am 3 and 1/2 years out so I know it gets harder to lose weight after we get further out there. There is a 5-day reset on line. I think you can look it up on line. Good Luck

None from me. LOL Just KEEP ON KEEPING ON. You will get there no doubt. I didn't want to sound like I was just plugging in the words. This is the most common reply from everyone. You can do this you have alredy proved that you are working your program.

Only a year out myself, so I just want to say way to keep on keeping on!!

What activity/exercise have you tried? Ask to specifically ask what you have liked and not liked. Exercise is supposedly key in the long run, so I was curious about what you like to do. If you haven't found something you like yet, that is ok too. I have tried a few different things and I could suggest based on what you like.

Me too. I know the obvious reply. Follow the bariatric diet.
Exercise, exercise, exercise
Any unique suggestions?



Diet and exercise. You already got out of your surgery what you're going to get..rest is up to you. I guess the 'unique' part is up to you. Good luck!

A lot of my eating was influenced by my cravings and addiction s. When I went completely off carbs for a month those disappeared. Much easier to manage the food you eat, when cravings aren't dictating every thought. Food is losing its importance in my life, which I absolutely love. I am free from it not being a constant focus whether I eat or not.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
