Starting Time Out today!

Hi Everyone!   Well, I am more of a lurker here,but, the Time Out has really intrigued me! I am almost three years out and have recently started to gain a little weight back, (I have had a few health issues which has prevented me from going to the gym)  I am determined to get this eight pounds off now before it becomes 20lbs. I have started back to the gym and am ready to nip this in the bud! Thank you to all of you who have posted and I will let you know how I do! Sandy

I too am starting Time Out today! I will be three years post op in December....and the lowest that I have gotten to is 162 lbs. and now am up to 171...and I still haven't met my own personal goal of 130-135 lbs...so I am hoping this will jump-start my loosing again.  Good Luck!

Good morning Sandy! I'm going to start a modified version of the TO plan. Breakfast, 1 AchievOne Protein Drink, Lunch, Nectar Fuzzy Navel Protein Drink and then dinner - solid food perhaps a small salad with grilled chicken. Lots of water during the day. I'm just starting my 3rd year with WLS and trying to find the happy medium.  Wishing everyone here a most successful TO day! Hugs, Lucy

I am a little over 2yrs post-op and I am starting the TO plan today also... 1 protein shake down so far....2 more to go! LOL.

Hi, I'm starting the Time Out today as well. I'm about 2 1/2 years out from revision from VBG to RNY. I started at 277 and the lowest I got was 177. I quit losing at about 8 months out when I began having some health problems not related to the RNY. I now weigh 185. I'm really disappointed that I never got close to my goal of 150 and sure don't want to gain any more...... so I'm going to try the Time Out for a while. I’m planning staying on the liquid protein only at least one week but hopefully two weeks  then adding in a meal consisting of a salad and lean protein after that.

 

 

Oh I also rejoined my gym on Friday so I'm committed to getting in some aerobic exercise on a more regular basis. Good Luck Everyone
