I had my lap band surgery in Dec of last year.   I've lost 85 pounds  but have been at a stand still for 2 months. I have read  about a diet to jump start the losses again. I need to  get back to eating better,  plus drinking more, liquids have been a great challenge for me.  Dues anyone here now where I can find info o n this.

sounds like you may be asking about

www.5daypouchtest.com ?? You had lapband, but this may work in both instances.

Trying to figure out how to reverse this weight gain.

Congratulations on your weight loss. Your are on your way to a healthier life. I am thinking that you do not really need a diet per say, but possibly a change in life style.

One thing that you can do is "look with in". You have a fantastic tool at your disposal and that is your band. You never mentioned anything about exercise - how are you in that area of your life style changes? Keep in mind that it comes down in the end of CALORIES IN = CALORIES OUT. (caps for emphasis, I was not shouting). You also did not mention anything about restriction. Do you possibly need a fill?  If you are serious about loosing more weight then you need to get good quality protein in, do not graze, drink your water or fluids . . .  I am sure that you are fully aware that you can drink sugary things and get away with it as it just goes through the band like water through sand. When you drink these type of things you are taking in calories.

I would suggest that you get in contact with your doctor's office and sit down and talk about the possiblity of needing a fill. The doctor might want to see a food journal of what you are eating and then he can determine if you need any help with your diet or if a fill is in order.

Come back and let us know how you are doing.
