      @@sparklesandsmog I am about to have surgery within the next couple of months. I am curious as to if you have heard from people and what you think. Is bypass or sleeve the best way to go and for best results as well in the long run? I am supposed to be having the gastric bypass but I have been given the choice as to which I would prefer so now I'm waiting out the option and willing to hear from other people who have had the sleeve as well??

    I had the sleeve 7/29/16. Processed foods taste nasty now. I lost my weight in 7 months but I was not happy with my body. I started hiking 4/14/17 and went from a size 10 to a size 4 in 7 months.I hike 3-4 miles at least 4 times a week. My weight regulates itself and I don't worry about the scale. One MUST exersize AND diet....there is NO way around it. Milk and soda is a no-no for me. Surgery is not the magic bullet but it is a most excellent tool

      @JeniLamberto 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@silverlining2794 That's so exciting!!!! My advice to you is do that like it's your job. Start now because it will give you the best start and habits. Follow the preop like it is your only concern at the time. Eliminater any need for caffeine and carbs before the surgery. Then, when you have the surgery stay on total food lockdown for 2 to 3 years to establish your habits. A lot of people are in a hurry to eat more. My feeling is just keep your food and animal protein at 3 ounces and under forever. I still weigh everything in my home and even though I can technically have 3 ounces I still listen to my hinger signals. Sometimes that means I only eat 2.4 ounces of proein at a time. Does that make sensnse? I am 3.5 years postop and still mainaining around 2121 pounds. My IG accounts are erniesmom863 and vsg.keto.timetoshapeup. Please feel free to dm me anytime. I am so excited fgor you!!!! And stay away from processed foods. That's the number on rule!!!!!

    Dr. Weiner, thank you. I need reminding me to continue my weight loss journey. You re-point out the things that I'm doing well as much as maintaining my delicate diet. I found out that I cannot tolerate food that contains gluten, so that may have plaid a important part of my childhood weight problems that occurred from being a 4 pound preemie. I came from 375 lb to now 185 lb person, but my goal weight that I need is around 155-160. I am just about 11 months out. I find my self doing what you've been talking about. You definitely and accurately describe what I'm going through now.

    Dr. Weiner, I am your last post before this and I have had great success, even at 62. Am down from 330 and am hitting a bit of a wall at 238. I am kicking in exercise to get things moving again. I love your videos and have your book, you help keep me focused and I pass your info on to so many others. Would you please make another video about the crazy idea I hear and see all over FB of "The 5 days pouch reset test". Makes me crazy when people believe some "trick" can get them back on track and losing again. I think they have moved to processed unhealthy food as they ate before, and the reset is just healthy food that makes you feel satisfied and back to good eating. Such false info out there about the details of surgery and weight loss, love that you address so many of those details and give us a better look at the real big picture. Thanks so much Doc.

    Your videos are so helpful. I sure wish I had found them sooner. I had lap band in 2011; now I wish I’d had the sleeve. I lost 67 lbs but have gained it all back, and more. I’m considering a revision to the sleeve, and I’m going to get your book so I can learn more about post op eating. I ate wrong after my band. The weight came off so fast at first that it was easy for me to fall into the pizza scenario you gave. At this point, I still eat 1/2 of what I ate pre-band and in spite of dietary changes, I still can’t get more than 10-20 pounds off. I’m so discouraged.

Thankfully, I've been eating healthy foods that I've prepared myself, but this video was a good reminder to really focus on not letting myself slide back in to my old habits.

    Thanks for this video. I'm almost 2 1/2 years out of sleeve surgery - and I've suspected for the last 6 months that the food was leaving my sleeve very quickly. I do eat a predominantly plant based diet and have for the last year and a half. I had a hysterectomy 5 months ago and healing has been a little slow. I had to stop everything for another month back at the end of Jan. and I'm now back to spin classes and very light lifting. I gained only about 5 pounds but I don't want that to turn into 15-20. I just told myself - no dieting - if I want something to eat it just needs to be veggies, beans or fruits. Thanks for this video it affirmed what I was thinking. Looking forward to your new book. Take care. Connie

    Thank you. This is a really informative vid and helped me understand what is happening for me. Next month I'll be 4 years post-op from gastric bypass (Roux En Y). I can usually eat a regular sized plate of food but not usually a restaurant size plate of food. It's great to be able to take home 1/2 of those for another meal later that day. Weight loss surgery was the best thing I've ever done for myself.

    Thank you, Dr. Weiner, for this awesome, informative video. I needed to hear this information. I was sleeved 10 months ago (by an awesome surgeon), and I've lost 118 pounds. The nearer I get to goal weight, the slower the weightloss. It made me wonder if I'd stretched out my sleeve somehow. I feel better about that now that I've watched your video.

    Hello Dr Weiner, discovered this video after browsing web. Thank you, I had my gastric sleeve four years ago, and have maintained my weight though I still feel I have another 10 - 15kgs to lose. I eat healthy, exercise regularly. Though have bradycardia, and aortic stenosis (heart murmer) discovered when I had sleeve. This does make it hard at times. Recently had an unconscious collapse - reviewed by cardiologist. (will eventually need valve replacement and pacemaker) I have lost 60kg so far, and want to stay healthy. Thank you for your videos and encouragement. Regards from Australia. :) Lynda

Having said that, I had the gastric bypass on November 13, 2019, it is going to be 4 months ago on March 13; and I have lost 43 pounds so far from my original weight of 229 pounds when I had the surgery. I intent to go down to 140 pounds which is my goal. I am 68 years old and I am feeling GREAT!!! I eat vegetables, fruits, my proteins, etc. all FRESH not canned. I walk everyday in a fast way so I can burn calories. Since my surgery, I don’t need to take the medications I used to take before, thank God to this surgery which which was a life saving for me. My question to you would be this: because of my age, would I be able to lose more weight to reach my goal??? Thank you very much! I appreciate your help in answering my question! As I said, never I had felt this great 👍 It is an awesome feeling. Happy in NJ.

    Wow- I am so glad to find your videos. A lot of my concerns are addressed in them. I am 6 weeks post gastric bypass surgery. This video was good for helping with possible regain of weight, but I am having trouble loosing it for just having surgery. In my 6 weeks since surgery I have only lost 18 lbs. I am doing everything right with protein, calories (only about 575 a day) and walk over a mile plus on my feet a lot throughout the day. No snacks and of course no sugar base foods. Mostly protein meats (no red meat), cooked veggies and protein shakes. My doctors office said “don’t worry it will come off. Just give it another week.” In over 3.5 weeks, not weight loss. If fact it jumps up a pound, then will go down again. Still the same weight. Have you encountered this with other patients so early? If so, please give me some suggestions. Thanks so much!

    • @apoundofcure
      @apoundofcure  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Darla Lawson People lose at very different rates after surgery and there are many reasons why. First, your starting weight has a big impact - if you start at 350 lbs, you'll lose a lot more weight than someone who starts at 250. Also, if you lose a lot of weight before surgery, we often see less weight loss in the first few months after surgery (yes, this is counter-intuitive, but true).

    It's so true about medication. I was always skinny then put on regular prednisone as a teenager and started gaining weight. The specialist said it doesn't permanently affect metabolism but I have now had a lifetime of gaining weight really quickly. I have not had prednisone since my early 20's and am now 46yrs. Scheduled for a VSG in May. I am positive the medication changed my bodies reaction to food.

    Dr. Wiener, I'm so glad I saw your vid. I'm 2yrs post op and lapsed back into unhealthy habits which have resulted in weight gain. I've been considering asking my surgeon to X-ray my sleeve because I can eat a full plate now and even when I was at the puréed stage I was eating much more than 2-3 oz of food. Listening to you has helped me to understand the need to take my focus off of the size of my sleeve to rather what I am actually eating. I'm starting a pouch reset today..going all liquids to shrink my stomach and reset my mind that I am a Bariatric patient that had surgery to lose weight. I've been eating almost anythin I want, but still though I would lose weight because of a smaller stomach. sooo not true. I lost 50lbs then gained 16 recently. top weight 260 now I'm 226. I take Latuda, but I'm told it's not supposed to cause weight gain. ?? Also, I have back pain so I haven't been exercising lately. I'm not giving up though. I will do exercises as the pain lets up and I will focus more on what I put in my mouth.
