Amazing. I need this cause I have gained 110 pounds in the last few years and it's very depressing. I don't like going anywhere now

[@alcindaaguiar1292]

Unfortunately I’ve been bad and put on 17kg😢😢

[@patricewilliams2998]

The reason it is important not to have a cheat day is because you will create a bad habit of needing a cheat day. Being consistent for at least a year will create a lifestyle change.

YOYOYOYOYOOOO im 10 months post op and i can barely tolerate spring water! Ive become a water snob! I love alkaline water, but its so expensive!! I can't believe it! Clear proof right here thank you!! And also these tips are truly so helpful! My doctors have me on a FIBER first dont worry about carbs or protein diet. Meaning they dont care if i have carbs and they dont mind if i skip the protien. Its so confusing!

Every dr has their own plan just make sure you do what works for you and help you be successful

Can you explain why carbs are bad for your sleeve? I'm fresh out of surgery but I thought the only thing that mattered was hitting your daily protein and calorie goal

[@wamatar7596]

I agree, I hated Keto I had my sleeve surgery 10 days ago but unfortunately everyone says must go low carb.😢

[@WigWoo1]

@@wamatar7596 from what I've heard. People say that carbs can trigger your hunger hormones So I don't think it's necessarily that carbs are directly bad for you, but they will make you feel hungry more often

[@wamatar7596]

@WigWoo1 Probably this is true because of insulin spike.I want to find my range of acceptable carbs count. My problem is that very low carb miss up my mood so bad. Did you also have gastric sleeve surgery?? How is your experience so far ??

[@WigWoo1]

@@wamatar7596 I had the sleeve in December. I've lost 170 pounds so far 8 months later. I've been very happy with the results and even more happy with how little food it takes to satisfy me

[@hayesAlexa]

Omg this helped alot and crazy because I definitely do that part eat wait a few minutes and finish the rest of my food and as I'm typing I was breaking to finish lol.but question with the eating and drinking can I cheat sometimes if it's like minutes into eating that I drink because my throat get dry with food and have that feeling to rinse it down.Like would that cause stomach stretch

Is there a such thing as cutting carbs too soon? I’ve been well under 30 since surgery day.

[@queenawesome2601]

The only one of these rules that I have followed is listen to your stomach. 🤷 I average around 130 carbs. I've still lost 80% of my excess weight in 5 months. 🎉 But everybody is very very different.

This is great info because I eat small amounts but not all the right things and I was wondering if there’s still hope for me. I’m 35 days post op

[@queenawesome2601]

@@tanecialewis57 they're definitely is hope for you! Your body is still trying to heal right now. The best advice I ever was given was to have three meals a day with no snacks. I can't quite do it on most days I have one snack. But I have been grazing since the 21st and have not lost a single pound so I need to get back on track too.

[@nicolekear3911]

That's because your stomach significantly decreases in size with this surgery.

What is alkaline water?

[@Endobariatric]

Hello Chris! Alkaline water has a high hydrogen content and provides greater hydration than normal water, especially after a hard workout, you can find it in your favorite supermarket.
