so i had my ds in 2002 so that's 18 years ago i was going to have i t revised so i could loose more again but then i hit a complication and my bowel folded on itself but i didn't know that could happen but apparently your bowel never shrinks so it is a like a curtain and it folds up on itself so my bowel twisted and i had to have alot of it removed just escaping a colostomy bag so lucky about that but cant fiddle around with anything too much because i was so close to dying and was in intensive care on life support for 5 days so my health is a bit precarious and im not really a spring ch****n now so the jogging is out i will try to do more steps when i first had it they said do an hour of exercise a week but that never happened .maybe i should have donrthat and i wouldnt have been where i am now.

In my opinion you're not eating enough. You're starving yourself. Why are you only eating twice a day? You should be grazing all day, but on appropriate DS-friendly foods. Up your protein. Snack on protein.

I am not DS, so maybe this is not appropriate to you. What I have found is that Weigh****chers lets me eat a variety of foods and still lose weight. There is no cutting out carbs or other food groups. I can eat any food I want and just track the points. Even though I do the program online, it keeps me accountable.

Three years after any weight loss surgery the body seems to become much more efficient at holding on to weight. But it is not impossible. Once I make up my mind to stick to my program the weight does come off.

Question.. you are doing WW now? Are you at goal weight and doing WW to maintain or using WW to lose because you have regain? Thanks.. Pam

Two years ago I had a 30 pound regain. I have slowly lost 20 and am working on the last 10. I love Weigh****chers because I can eat any foods I want and just have to track the points. I am actually perfectly fine at my current weight, but still want to get back to my goal weight.

Hi, only thing I have read that can help is doing a pouch reset diet. There are a few online available. Hope this helps. I pray you can get back in the losing weight stage. Take care
