All that sounds good but thankfully, my Dr still like protein suppliments. I would be lost without them and even though I eat protein based meals, and have my suppliments, my labs are ok but don't show an over-protein anytime. I think your regain is pretty normal. Most of us see some. The trick is keeping it to a few not all.
Great job.

Over 100 lbs lost! and 13 lbs below goal weight!
Day 2 of my new eating plan. Eating with a pickle fork is a big change. Two bites protein, one bite veggie. I can have one fruit a day. The dietician said not be concerned with tracking for the first five days, but to concentrate on protein and low carb in order to decarb.

Glad you had a good visit with your dietitian
I agree with eating more vegetables but not with the fruit. It has a ton of sugar in it. Probably 1 serving a day would be OK. I've known people who have gained weight from using fruit in their Protein drinks every day.
Good Menu!

I was nervous going in to the follow up appointment with my surgeon, but it was all worth it. They have improved their information so much since I was there 4 years ago. I was given a booklet they now present to patients that explains everything from the beginning to 5 weeks after surgery.
The dietician is great. She has a website devoted to bariatrics. She suggested eating with a pickle fork, take very small bites and chew, chew, chew. Take 2 bites of protein to 1 bite vegetable. Drink up to 15 minutes before a meal and wait 45 minutes after a meal to eat. No more than 6 grams of sugar in any food.
My daily protein requirement is 60 grams and should be gotten from food rather than shakes. When I started my journey, I was told I would need to have 2 supplements for the rest of my life. Shakes should be made with water or 30-40 calorie almond milk.
The doctor wasn't shocked at my regain which is 14 lbs. He was very encouraging that I can lose the 14 plus additional weight I want to lose.
