Grazing after weight loss surgery means your sleeve or pouch is a little like a leaking bucket . . . You slowly put food in, and it gradually moves through your tummy, never giving you a clear signal that you've had enough. This can lead to overeating without you even realising it and before you know it, you have found a way to eat similar portions to those you were eating pre-surgery 😳 Whether it's sipping on a smoothie all morning, stretching your lunch out longer than 20 minutes or nibbling on snacks throughout the day, each bite adds up. Our Common Culprits eWorkbook will help you tackle grazing and 20 other Common Culprits to help you to start losing again for just $7! πŸ’ͺ🏻 πŸ‘ŠπŸ» Comment CULPRITS below and we will DM you a link to order your copy πŸ‘‡πŸ» #bariatricdietitian #bariatricnutrition #bariatricsurgerysupport #weightlosssurgerysupport #bariatricliving #wlsinspiration #wlscrew #bariatricjourney #bariatricsupport #lifeaftervsg #wlsfamily #vsgcommunitysupport #wlsinstacrew #wlsaustralia #vsgaustralia #wlslife #wlscommunityvsg #rnylife #bariatricsleeve #sleevesurgery #sleevegastrectomy #gastricsleevesurgery #wlssupport #vsgsupport #nfwls

We are often asked about portable, savoury snack options. Unfortunately, many of the seemingly healthy options provide little nutrition and have as much fat and salt as potato chips. Don’t be fooled by the packaging. Even if it claims to be vegetable chips, grain snacks or baked not fried, be sure to check the nutrition information panel to see if it is in fact a good choice. If you are looking for more ways to satisfy mid-meal hunger with snack choices that contribute to your nutritional goals, we have you covered!

This month was certainly the hardest. Still proud of myself for the loss, but the slow down has been hard to see. This month was also a lot of up and down weigh-ins, which I had not seen as much since surgery. I can say, I am very confident that this is all fat loss, as I continue to get in daily movement/walks and had many days this month over 10k steps. Ready for a new month, more sunny days, fresh fruit/veg, and continued goals. #weightloss #weightlosscommunity #weightlosssupport #weightlossjourney #wlsjourney #wls #wlscommunity #vsg #vsgsurgery #vsgsupport #vsgjourney #sleeved #bariatricmeals #bariatricsupport #bariatriclife #bariatricliving

Eating too quickly is one of the β€˜Common Culprits’ we see involved in plateaus and weight regain following weight loss surgery. Eating too quickly can cause a build up of food, sending your brain a β€˜false’ full signal. Once this food gradually passes through your pouch or sleeve, you may not have had enough food to satisfy you, and you can soon become hungry again. You feel hungry, and more food is eaten. This is just one of the β€˜Common Culprits’ we see involved in plateaus and weight regain following weight loss surgery. . . One of the 21 Common Culprits we have included in our Common Culprits eWorkbook! For just $7 you can get the entire eWorkbook to help you identify what might be contributing to your stall or regain, and exactly what to do to start moving in the right direction again πŸ’ͺ🏻 πŸ‘ŠπŸ» Comment CULPRITS below and we will DM you a link to order your copy πŸ‘‡πŸ» #bariatricdietitian #bariatricnutrition #bariatricsurgerysupport #weightlosssurgerysupport #bariatricliving #wlsinspiration #wlscrew #bariatricjourney #bariatricsupport #lifeaftervsg #wlsfamily #vsgcommunitysupport #wlsinstacrew #wlsaustralia #vsgaustralia #wlslife #wlscommunityvsg #rnylife #bariatricsleeve #sleevesurgery #sleevegastrectomy #gastricsleevesurgery #wlssupport #vsgsupport #nfwls

Did you know that most individuals struggling with obesity eat foods that are CALORIE RICH (energy-rich) but NUTRITION POOR??⁠ ⁠ This is why this post is necessary... We all want easy, and there are easy ways to make it happen, but for those of us on the bariatric journey, we need to CHECK OURSELVES when it comes to impulse buys, snack-type foods, and food "products."⁠ ⁠ What percentage of your food comes from pre-packaged INNER AISLES of your grocery store (and highly processed) versus OUTER AISLES of your grocery store?⁠ ⁠ ⚑️ Eating healthy does not need to be boring or gross.⁠ ⚑️ Eating healthy does not need to take hours.⁠ ⚑️ Over time, eating more whole foods and less processed foods improves both weight loss outcomes and overall health.⁠ ⁠ Please remember that this ALSO is not about demonizing foods but looking at it from the perspective of PERCENTAGES.⁠ ⁠ This is why in my books, I talk about the 80/20 rule in terms of nutrition.⁠ ⁠ When you are eating whole, healthy foods more often, your body can easily access and process the nutrition.⁠ ⁠ Where are you getting your FOOD from? How is it nourishing your body? Remember, we want to enjoy the foods we are eating AND make sure we are getting nourishment.⁠ ⁠ What small steps can you take to create space for REAL whole foods in your NEW bariatric lifestyle and for the longevity of your journey??⁠ ⁠ How can you shift your daily/weekly meal plan to ensure you're getting in NUTRITION-dense foods?⁠ PS... this is NOT a diet; this IS a lifestyle change - and YOU are worth it!⁠ ⁠ Share your thoughts below!!⁠ ⁠ xoxo,⁠ Kristin ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #balancedmacros #bariatricnutrition #bariatricrecipes ⁠ #vsg #vsgjourney #vsgcommunity #vsgsurgery #vsgsupport #vsgproblems #vsgpreop #vsgpostop #vsglifestyle #vsgweightloss #vsgcrew #vsgstrong ⁠ #bariatricsurgery #bariatricjourney #bariatriccommunity #bariatricsurgerysupport #bariatricliving #bariatricfriendly #weightlosssurgery #weightlosssurgeryjourney #wlscommunity #wlscommunityvsg #wls #wlssupport #wlsjourney

⁠ ⁠ The transformation after WLS is often rapid. For a lot of people, this can take time for the brain to play catch up and see how far you have actually come. ⁠ ⁠ So, what can be done to improve how you view yourself post WLS? My suggestion is to practice body positivity. ⁠ ⁠ 🌈Here are 6 ways to practice body positivity‡️⁠ ⁠ 1️⃣Reflect on your accomplishments . Note positive milestones you achieve each week. ⁠ ⁠ 2️⃣Don’t compare your body to others. ⁠ ⁠ 3️⃣Think healthier not skinner. Think about all the positive things your body can do instead of just the number. Eg: run 2km, conceive a healthy baby. ⁠ ⁠ 4️⃣Compliment yourself. Start to focus on the things you like about yourself. Eg: β€œI like how I am kind friend.” ⁠ ⁠ 5️⃣Compliment others. We can sometimes project our insecurities on others & because we judge ourselves so harshly we can put that onto others. The moment we open ourselves to be kind to others, we can start to be kinder to ourselves.⁠ ⁠ 6️⃣Surround yourself with supportive people and positive messaging. You don’t need to put up with responses such as: β€œyou look to skinny." You also don’t need to be following social media accounts that make you feel crappy. Find new friends, unfollow accounts & limit social media time. ⁠ ⁠ ❀️Like this post if you needed to hear some love today⁠ ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #bariatricbadass #bariatricgirl #bariatricbypass #bariatricliving #lifestylechangesforthebetter ⁠

When life gets busy and you need dinner in a hurry, frozen meals are one option to consider. However care needs to be taken, as many options are high in carbohydrate and salt and low in good quality protein and fibre. Look for options that are based on protein and vegetables where you can.

Pizza night for the FamBam Pizza was requested and I didn’t have the energy to make my chicken crust, so I decided to try using keto bread as the crust. This is the first time I’ve had β€œbread” since my surgery. Let me tell you, I was nervous but also excited. I need to remember that bread isn’t the enemy. Carbs aren’t the enemy. I need to break free of Diet Culture and live a healthy life with all foods. I was only going to have one slice of bread, but I didn’t realize how small keto bread is! So I had two. And let me tell you, it was amazing. #batiatricfood #bariatricdinner #bariatricliving #bariatriceating #weightloss #weightlossjourney #healthylifestyle #happyandhealthy

Can you eat way more of some foods than you thought you would be able to? Feel there are some foods you could just keep eating? Stopped losing weight? It could be slider foods. Slider foods are: βœ”οΈ crunchy, soft or sloppy processed foods with little or no nutritional value βœ”οΈ usually high in carbohydrate, fat or sugar so are often relatively high in calories compared to a less processed option βœ”οΈ processed, meaning much of the 'work' has been done to break them down βœ”οΈ easy to chew and easy to swallow, meaning they empty quickly from your pouch or sleeve. This means that slider foods don’t sit around in your pouch or sleeve signalling that you have eaten, or that you have eaten enough. They slide on through that pouch or sleeve, leaving space for more food. Without the signal to stop eating, more is eaten . . . 😳 Slider foods are just one of the topics we unpack in detail in our 'Smash Plateaus and Reverse Regain' online course.

Making time to create meals that are both colorful and a little extra. My current goal (outside of the bariatric β€œbig 3”) is to add something with vibrant color to every meal. I’m not perfect at it, but it’s a focus so it happens more than it would if I didn’t. This week I made a few yogurt parfaits with fresh strawberries. On this day, I put it in a beautiful and bougie mason jar. Honestly, it made a difference. #weightloss #weightlosscommunity #weightlosssupport #weightlossjourney #wlsjourney #wls #wlscommunity #vsg #vsgsurgery #vsgsupport #vsgjourney #sleeved #bariatricmeals #bariatricsupport #bariatriclife #bariatricliving

FOUR months post-op as a bariatric patient and still navigating my β€œnew relationship” with food. Learning to β€œtaste” each bite, make mindful choices, and prioritize nutrition. It’s a daily 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐒𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 to health and self-care. This journey isn’t just about physical transformation; it’s about reclaiming control, finding balance, and embracing a new way of life. It’s a journey of self-discovery and resilience. I’m so Grateful for the journey I’m on, the person I’m becoming and resilience and support that guides me every step of the way.

Snacking is perfectly reasonable after surgery when it is for the right reasons βœ”οΈ It is not healthy to snack just because: βœ–οΈ you are bored, tired, happy, angry, sad, etc. βœ–οΈ it is morning or afternoon tea time βœ–οΈ other people are eating βœ–οΈ you are finishing snacks the children haven’t eaten βœ–οΈ your partner likes to snack βœ–οΈ you are in a particular situation eg. you always have to get an ice cream at the beach, popcorn at the movies, lollies on long car trips, chips watching the TV. It is however fine to have a small snack between meals if you are genuinely, physically hungry. It may be that your body needs more food than the basic three meals per day. Or it may be that you can only eat very small meals and need some small snacks to meet your nutritional needs. We recommend that your snacks are: βœ”οΈ planned βœ”οΈ portioned βœ”οΈ purposeful. If you need planned, portion and purposeful snack ideas, we have a comprehensive list ready and waiting for you!

For example, do you need to: πŸ‘‰πŸ» limit grazing πŸ‘‰πŸ» increase your exercise πŸ‘‰πŸ» improve your hydration πŸ‘‰πŸ» increase your protein πŸ‘‰πŸ» limit slider foods?

Four months post-op today. Really happy with the steady weigh loss progress. I found myself slacking some on tracking this month and had a few small treat grabs that I had not done before. None of this is enough to hold me back, but it’s certainly something to keep an eye on and make sure I’m doing the things that will help me reach my goals. #weightloss #weightlosscommunity #weightlosssupport #weightlossjourney #wlsjourney #wls #wlscommunity #vsg #vsgsurgery #vsgsupport #vsgjourney #sleeved #bariatricmeals #bariatricsupport #bariatriclife #bariatricliving
