Topic: RE: Stuck at losing the rest of the weight

The window in which we lose the most weight after surgery is between 18-24.   Now, we have to work harder at losing and that means focusing on dense proteins, weight/measuring our food.  Keeping a journal of the foods you eat, so you can cut wht is not necessary.    If you can do that as well as cut any simple carbs and all sugar, you could start to lose again, with exercise.    Stick to a support system either online or in person too.  It is vital. 

I myself have had regain in the last two years and I am working on getting that off.   This surgery is not a miracle cure, it is definitely a tool.

Topic: Stuck at losing the rest of the weight

I'm 12months post surgery I've lost 192lbs but now the weight loss has tapered off what can I do to get rid of the remaining lbs I watch what I eat stay within the nutritional guidelines but the scale hasn't moved in months. I'm not gaining but I'm not losing either this is so frustrating does anyone have some suggestions I could really use them at this time

Hi Kitty!

I am also terrible about drinking water daily.  I know we need to have so I drink as much as I can in the mornings right after exercising, that's when I am really thirsty.  The remainder of the day I have resorted to non-caloric flavored water.  Everyone keeps telling me I'm supposed drink regular water and to get least 64 - 80 oz but the flavored water works for me.  I buy the Giant's flavored water.  The kiwi lime tastes like sprint to me.   Good luck in reaching and maintaining your goals.

I use MyFitnessPal and Plan to Eat. :)

I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!

I really like the On Yeah On Bars  They have 21G of Protein and only 1 sugar.  They are very tasty  They do have sugar alcohol but it has not affected me.
