Trying to get back on Track



Recommended Posts

I don't know about a food plan, per se, outside of the proscribed post-op diet, but I will say that I am trying really hard right now to stick to the rules around not drinking liquids just before/during/after meals. I'm also trying to get back to Protein first - 2 bites lean protein to one bite veggies. It really makes hunger stay away. Good luck to you!

Did your surgeon give you a plan to follow? I had a really hard time losing my pre-op weight at first. Then I went on Pinterest and found a bunch of low carb recipes. Following the Keto method helped me drop a lot of weight easily, and I was always satisfied.

Its so hard figuring out what is going to work for you and your body. I decided to stop eating simple carbs and focus on carbs from veggies. Using a tracking app like MyFitnessPal really helped me with Portion Control. And reading the book Never Binge Again helped me deal with my food addiction. It's an ongoing struggle though!

I hope you can find a plan that works well for you! You can do 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! 😞
