I track everything that I eat in MFP (username ashleydillo - I have my food diary open) and I only eat when I am hungry.  Often, it will be the afternoon before I have my first meal.  If I am still really not hungry, I will protein shake it up.  I always aim to hit my protein goal, even if it means using shakes and I never go above 20g total carbs.  I am not afraid of healthy fats and use full fat dairy.  I do not stress calories.  This is what works best for me.  I am also sedentary and haven't exercised at all.  Old habits die hard and I am just lazy and unmotivated to move regularly.  But it just goes to show weight loss and maintenance can be achieved by diet alone!

Flintstones are a bad choice. They do not have everything we need. You don't even save money by taking them since you actually need to take 4 a day so I don't see the point.

I hope so. I am trying to lose about 30 regained pounds. I had a baby and made some pretty bad eating choices. But I'm hoping to lose this regain before I add any more. 

Accepting the post-WLS body is not easy... you had to deal with being overweight, did something about it.. worked hard lost weight and now you have all this skin to live with. I felt it was unfair.. I wanted to be "normal" and not worry about flapping arms and sagging belly. Its not easy to come to terms with but my feeling was Id rather deal with the excess skin then dealing with being overweight and all that came with it. We are much harder on ourselves than others... I know you don't like the flapping skin but I am sure your husband doesn't feel the same way you do.. I would definitely recommend finding somebody to speak with to help you accept your post-WLS and learn to be proud of all you have accomplished losing weight.  

I have worked a 2nd job since right after surgery and saved up to have PS.. wish I had started sooner. 3 years ago I had an extended TT, this past July I had a BA/BL and arm lift.... next year (hopefully) will be surgery on my legs.... I will say it has 110% made such a difference in how I feel about myself and my self esteem... the TT gave me a little, but the BA/BL and arm lift have shot me thru the roof... work working 50-60 hours a week for so long.

Hell I am 10 years post op my start weigh was 355 then my lowest was 170. Between 2009 and 2013 I had 5 pregnancies so I am finally done with that. However after each baby I bounced back to around 195-200 however I got up to 230 a few months ago. Currently I am eating 3 meals a day focusing on protein only water no more sodas no sweets and drastic reduction in carbs. I know when I stick to it I can lost about 10-15 lbs in a month. Do you have any more pointers from your loss. I would appreciate it.
