7 Years out and Regain - Suggestions for protein consumption

Thanks!

Great advice above... Just wanted to add good for you for being proactive, getting back online and reaching out for help. You will be a great role model for your Grandchildren too... living healthy!

I'd suggest getting your labs done if you haven't in awhile, have a chat with your surgeon about getting back on track (he/she may want to check for any mechanical failures of the surgery) and if you are on any medications see if those could have weight gain as a side effect. Make an appt w/ a nutritionist, maybe a therapist too... you know get your team together.

I personally do 50% of my day protein, I am a little more strict on carbs because my job is a sit down job and though I build in lots of movement in my day I still sit a lot more than i would like. You are welcome to take a look at my blog (8+ years of post weight loss surgery food menus and recipes, maybe give you a few new ideas) 

Best wishes to you. Keep posting and if you have a real world support group get involved in that... keeps your head in the game.

Thanks, Shelley!

I do follow you on FB and Pinterest

I appreciate your suggestions. I just recently had labs and all is well. I hadn't thought about mechanical failure, but certainly worth looking in to.
