How far out are you? How many calories are you taking in per day? Carbs? Protein? How much Water do you drink per day? Do you track everything you eat and drink? What do you do for exercise?

Sorry for all the questions, but it is hard to give advice without knowing more about what is going on with you and where you are in your journey.

In addition to blizair's questions, it would be helpful to know which bariatric surgical procedure you had. Was it a band, sleeve, bypass or DS?

Also, what was your starting weight on the day of surgery?

Since this is posted in the General Weight Loss forums, we have no way of knowing unless you answer. Good luck to you. :)

GastricBypass

How long ago was the gastric bypass? I'm asking because many people find that, years after a bypass, they are metabolically challenged due to a phenomenon called intestinal adaptation.

Intestinal adaptation occurs when the small intestine adapts to being bypassed. The intestinal section that hasn't been bypassed undergoes adaptations such as villus enlargement, which promotes rapid and efficient calorie absorption. This has two effects: slow weight loss and rapid regain the further out you are.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
