If she is only 8 months out, I would suggest that she go back to the basics. Do a week of clear liquids and protein drinks. Then start out eating lite with lots of protein and water. That worked for me, hope it will for your friend. Skinny Wishes, Becky

I may be able to help you with the liquid diet delimma. I started my own business on line a few months ago. Since then, by using the products that I sell on the internet, I have begun to loose weight again (thank God). I use two protein shakes perday, and the double X vitamins twice a day, there is also a 30 day diet program that can be utilized. There have been great results with that too. I have a huge line of meal replacement bars, protein bars, protein shakes, protein powder, and many, many other products to enhance weight loss and management.

I've ordered lots of things from a site: bariatriceating.com. They have protein drinks that are fruity and VERY good. Also they have a product called AcheivOne Latte, which has 20 gms of protein and tastes like a Starbucks iced coffee. I drink one every morning first thing. Hope this helps. Lisa

Personally, as a post op, I'd NEVER go back to a liquid diet again. I did those, and fasting, as a pre op. They LOWERED my metabolism so I needed WLS. If you screw up WLS, where do you go from here? (Or your friend).

Interesting, this happen to my next door neighbor, but she was drinking alcohol (again)! At first the weight dropped, but then something happen and she began to gain - is not waiting for a revision (but was not honest about her alcoholism) - maybe this is not your friend, but I would definitely go back to the surgeon - maybe something is wrong surgical wise?
