Hi everybody! It’s been a while since I posted. I’m 1 year and 5 days out from my VSG. I’ve lost 88.5 pounds so far. It’s been a long, slow, and tough battle, and I’m concerned about messing up my already slow progress. I’ll be working the

Hi guys! It’s been a while since I posted. It seems I’ve been destroying my own progress. I had been seeing very slow success on the scale. I get almost no exercise since I’m recovering from an accident plus my surgery was a revision, so it was g

Hi. I guess it’s time to bring out more questions about Shirataki noodles. Most of the posts on them here are a little old. I’ve tried them in the past. Just the regular ones, not the tofu ones since I try to avoid soy w

I’m about 16 weeks post VSG. I know that I’m probably asking for the moon here, but I’m interested in a good-tasting low-carb or Keto protein bar that is sweet, but doesn’t include a lot of artificial sweeteners and

I’ve heard about the hair loss, but does anyone get teeth loosening or actually falling out despite 1000 mg calcium supplements daily? I haven’t had dental issues yet but just wanted to know what to expect. Thanks.

Hi guys! When you guys are eating snacks, do you still eat 2-3 ounces of it, and still keep to 30 minutes for the snack? Thanks.

Has anyone heard any current consensus as to the reason why there is slow or less weight loss after band to sleeve revision? I wasn’t told about it preop and couldn’t get a straight answer from my surgeon afterwards when

Just more Keto Questions. If we are to limit our calories to around 500-600 calories, what will happen when our sleeves eventually stretch and we are able to handle higher volumes and likely higher calories? When we are able

Hi. Are any of you guys following a Ketogenic Diet and Intermittent Fasting post bariatric surgery? If so, have you had any trouble getting adequate protein in the restricted hours? What were you eating and what was the timi

Hi guys. Me again. A few more questions. First: When I eat solid protein however long it takes me to get it all down, I still feel full for another 2 or 3 hours. My program says drink 30 minutes before or 30 minutes after ea

What's the starting weight that you guys use on your weight loss tickers? Did you put:
A) Your highest weight ever?
B) Your weight before your surgical preop diet?
or
C) Your weight after preop diet on the day of surgery

Time to confess. I’ve gone back to a really bad pre-Bariatric surgery habit. In order to get in all or at least 75% of the protein and fluid that I need daily, I’ve been eating and drinking at the same time. I haven’t been doing it exactly like I

I’m still learning my way around, and I’m thus far unable to get my weight loss ticker to show up. I’ve searched and followed other suggestions. I’ve deleted it completely and enabled my signature over and over. I ca

Hi guys. First off thanks to you guys for your help regarding fluids. I’m getting more water in these days. Some hunger has returned. The scale still moves like a snail but at least I seem to be losing inches. My question

Hi. I’m back with more VSG questions. I can’t have raw veggies or salads until 4 months as per my program. Which week did you guys get to have salads and green smoothies? Any issues with them? Thanks in advance.

- Hi. I was wondering if any of you guys that are years out from VSG and following a ketogenic diet experience hunger and if that led to an increased volume of food consumed. I know ketosis usually kept my appetite down before my sleeve, but I cou

Hi guys! For those who haven’t read my previous post about my struggles, I’m in my 7th week post VSG. Thanks to a suggestion in answer to my other question, I set my alarm so that I can drink water every 10 minutes. Yest

Hi everyone. I guess you could say I’m a newbie. I was here probably back in 2005 when I had the Lap Band, but couldn’t find my login info from that time. They were never able to settle on the correct fill level for me, so I had them remo
