How to get back on track :(



Recommended Posts

Surgery almost 6 years ago, Low weight was 201 (6'2, I looked liked a skeleton and hated it) body compensated and sat around 250, (which is a weight that I like). But now I am up to about 285. How do I get back on track, mentally I cannot get it together although I know what I should and need to do...

I don't want to fail, I can't fail.

You need to weigh and track every thing you eat and drink. That way you know what you are doing. Eat good food. Protein first then vegetables then carbs. Up your exercise if you can. Good luck

Absolutely what @summerseekerhas said. You can re-jig your intake and lose weight again if you go Protein first at every meal and track *everything*.

When you say 'body compensated' do you mean that you didn't like the weight you landed on after your surgery and found ways to eat around it? Or that that was your lowest weight and then even sticking to your programme you regained that much? And when you say 'but now I am up to...' are you saying that you regained that much whilst still being vigilant, or that you totally relaxed the rules? Sorry I'm very black and white - need more detail!!

      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! 😞
