Need some advice



Recommended Posts

Hi my name is Jennifer i am new here. I had my gastric sleeve surgery done on September 11th of 2018. Well since this stay in home thing, i have gained some weight and i am not liking it one bit. And my husband is home all the time now since his disability got approved, and i dont like doing things in front of people no matter who they are including my mom, i am weird i know. But my question is how can i lose weight, should i do high Protein Drinks for a week and nothing else or should i do the post op steps all over again?

I agree with the above posters. I'd just start really monitoring what you're eating. Start logging your food again if you're not already doing that, and try to figure out how many calories a day you're averaging, and then cut back from there. Gradually. As in cut out 100 calories a day for awhile. After a couple weeks, if nothing's happening, then cut by another 100. Rinse and repeat.

also, go back to what you were doing the first year, once you were a few months out - as in Protein first, then veggies - and then, if you still have room, maybe a small serving of fruit or whole-grain carbs.

      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!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
