fruit is pure sugar. Many of us can't lose unless we drop the carbs to under 20 gms a day.
I would encourage you to increase your protein and eat as few carbs as possible.
thankyou i will try the 10k steps but that seems a chore to me
thats why i thought of doing the dance class 10 minutes i might try doing it twice a day i also decided to eat only when im starving . Isn't it funny you get so hungry you could eat a horse and then halfway through a small plate your full as a bull.

You're definitely not overeating, so congrats on keeping more than 100lbs off. I eat more than your daily amount for breakfast everyday so I have a different perspective for you regarding weight maintenance. The carbs are an important part of your nutrition so instead I would suggest you set a goal of 10k steps a day and use a tracker to monitor it. Also, I always lost weight by eating more protein, not less food.

RNY malabsorption can change depending on the length of the common channel. In the old days they would refer to as either a proximal (standard) or distal RNY, the distal having a much shorter common channel. I don't think many surgeons do the distal anymore because with the RNY the pouch is so small that the combination of a very restrictive surgery with significant malabsorption is just asking for health problems. The sleeve part of the DS is much larger than the pouch of the RNY so you can eat more. I think the average pouch is 1 oz (at the beginning) while the average sleeve of the DS is about 6 oz.
I've known people who had an RNY who only have to take a multi-vitamin, and maybe some extra calcium or iron or D. Nothing like the laundry list of vitamins I take for my DS. Same with labs - I know a few RNYers and they all get labs done once a year (like me). My list of labs requires approximately 15-20 tubes of blood - this list comes from my DS surgeon's office and I will follow it.
Main differences between DS and RNY:
- Sleeve as opposed to pouch
- No bypass - my duodenum is still intact - no dumping
- Significant malabsorption
