4 years out, HW 257, LW 167, regained 40, and as of today, lost it. Woot! My regain was from stress, wine, and denial. I finally got back on track in May by tracking every. damn. thing, by saying no to booze and carbs, and by using Phentermine (with my doc’s support). I also work out a few mornings a week with my…

However, since day one I have been on an acid reducer which worked well until October 2019. It really was overnight that the medication no longer worked and I had severe…
I am seven years out from my surgery and I am having horrible/painful nightly bloating. Can anyone recommend a probiotic that has worked well for them? Any other advice/things that have worked well? This started at the very end of 2019 when I had a hiatal hernia repair. My guts just haven't been the same since...

I'm not concerned about gaining or losing weight anymore, but I'm having some struggle finding how to balance my nutrition now I can eat a bit more than what I used to some months ago. I particularly find somewhat difficult…
