I got surgery 5 months ago and I feel like my stomach has grown more than it should've due to consuming sugar... I think, I still can't eat as much as I want to, but definitely a little bit more since 2 months after surgery. I feel like I'm losing control. I weighed 260 lbs before surgery and now I'm 209 lbs, I feel like I haven't lost as much as I'm supposed to.

You don't need to do any type of cleanse. If you take down the sugar. And go back to dense Protein you will really feel the restriction. Your tummy won't feel bigger if you say had some steak. But would with slider food. Just go back to basics and continue on. I'm on holiday so I am worrying Bout not losing as can't weigh food. Just eating Proteins and tiny amount of veg doesn't allow for.me to over eat. You got this. What is your Daily eating like

Or you can go back to dense Protein and veg. Im sure your stomach hasnt stretched. But you won't feel the same level of restriction with sweet carby things as you will with protein. Steak, chicken, Turkey, fish. Green veggies, Beans. All good filling things. I guarantee you won't feel hungry after a couple oz of chicken.

The minute I eat sugar I want more and at 6 months Out i can tolerate it. I agree with other posters. Count your macros. Most days I get 85 G Protein and under 40 g carbs and 40 g fat. It has worked well for me.

Doing some light exercise. Pilates a few times per week. But I am more energetic and active. I use an app called Baritastic. Definitely consider using it.

      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! 😞
