Im depressed again cuz I'm gaining weight again two yrs out post sleeve. So frustrating

I need to stop drinking its not helping my weightloss issue at all ????and I get drunk fast with the sleeve. ????

I am Jewish ✨????

Vsg two yrs and 4 months ago. OC.

.

I definitely have stretched my sleeve. ????

Had him for vsg. Good surgery but no follow up n impossible to get nurse or assistance post surgery for follow up.

Thank you so much this really helped me. I'm saving your tips.

265 pre sleeve. 150lb 8 months later. Now two years out and unfortunately back to 200. I'm so mad at myself for letting this happen n It's so out of control I have no idea how to get back to that 150. Such a shame

Thanks you for having the strength and courage to come back and post your situation. Many have come and done the same before you, you are not alone. I gained 22 pounds before I found the system to turn it around and get to goal. You can too. For me it was those things that Pdx mentioned above... log everything I eat every day... use every tool at my command, fit bit, MFP and the 5:2 protocol (you can find info on that in the Vets forum if you are interested) I can not depend on my senses to steer me towards the right food or amounts, so I HAVE to write is all down every day whatever I eat good or not so good. I found 1200 a day plus eating back part of my exercise calories (between 1200-1600 a day) and using a semi fast on two days a week... 500-600 cals on those days. No drinking with meals or after, keeping the Protein up, Vitamins, lower carbs. For those days/weeks where we get off plan for whatever reason, keep a bounce range that will trigger a stricter plan to get back in line before the pounds really rack up. It is harder to lose further out than earlier out after WLS. You are not alone!

It's so out of control I don't even know how to explain it but I suppose ill start by tracking my calories but I gave up so bad that I do not even know how many calories I'm supposed to b taking in. It's like I erased the first yr post surgery out of my mind n totally gave up. I think I should maybe go back to my surgeon or nutritionist I saw two years ago. Thanks.

Bottom line: All you will need most is a promise to yourself you will commit to maintaining your wieghtloss and not sabotage all you go through to get there!

Thank you. I appreciate it and good luck n best wishes always to you on your journey ????????✨????????

I gained 50 back so I hope this advice helps me too ????

Agreed.

I had Nguyen for vsg surgery in OCt 2011.

Self sabotage????I need help

Feeling fat. Now up 50. So depressed I need to gain control n shrink my belly again too ???? eating too much!!! Regret...

I started this thread... I was doing better than I thought on my last post because now I truly have gained at least 35 pounds back! I can eat a lot more and it's such a huge Shame to b back to my old bad binge eating habits of fatty foods frequently and lack of movement. I was size 9 just several months ago and now I'm creeping up to size 16!!!!! After going through this surgery how could I let this happen again?!?! Anyhow I started the gym again but I'm so lazy. My dog has gotten chubby again too ???? I am anemic now n need B12 shots, which apparently is a side effect common from bariatric surgery. I need to get back on the track I was on post surgery n b motivated! It's a little over 2yrs now n I hope I can push myself as I did post surgery n remember all I went through n set another goal n accomplish it!! Acid reflux is better. but I'm thinking that's just cuz my stomach has stretched... I'm frustrated n need motivation to get to my goal n back on track. My family says "it's a crime you went through all that n did that to your stomach n now u r ruining it!" ????????

Omg for the past two months I have had the absolute worst ulcerative cholitis flair up with so much pain n blood loss since I got the sleeve exactly two yrs ago. I will have a sigmoidoscopy on Monday. The medicines I am taking r not helping except giving me way more acid reflux that I often throw up. I have low blood pressure n have not been able to exercise for two months. I'm gaining weight cuz the stuff I can tolerate eating are not healthy things. :0(

I'm ruining this surgery I had two years ago cuz I'm binge eating again n not exercising n gaining so much weight! I'm stuck! I eat till it hurts or I throw up n the acid reflux is still so bad. I have a really bad ulcerative cholitis flair up from stress for the past two months n I'm so weak n depressed. I feel so guilty and bad for myself that I went through the surgery just to mess it all up and everyone is telling me I am "fat again." :0( nothing fits n everything on my body is ugly n saggy. I need to motivate myself again n remember why I did this which was to never get back to this mess again! Self sabotage. It's everytime I lose a friendship or relationship this happens. Fml

Checking in. Still stalled at 100 pounds lost only, n unfortunately gaining it back fast :0(

I have lost only 100 since my surgery two Octobers ago!!! I need to lose at least fifty more! This is either becoming a weight gain again or a bad stall! :0((((((( I don't want to get fat again!!! Gosh it's so easy to gain weight back and I went through all this to do better, so any ideas to boost the weightless back? Thanks

Checking in: getting sharp pains like I did post surgery on right side of belly button n been having increased acid n throwing up this month. It's either all because I am eating late. Eating too frequently, upping my sodium n it's insane how dehydrated I can get so quickly. However I am still drinking coffee a lot. I get huge headaches now. I do exercise more. But I feel that I get weak and tired pretty fast. Maybe some of this Is mental because of birthday blues. I try to stay away from alcohol because I'm a major lightweight now with the sleeve. I burp soooooo much it's so unladylike! I take pribiotics again, although they r so expensive. I try to only eat organic n all natural. I wore pants for the first time in ten yrs n all of a sudden everyone thinks I'm super skinny. Lol. It's just cuz I wore baggy skirts and tops for so long. I just hit a yr in oct since the surgery n I'm feeling healthy for the most part. I try my best to keep my sleeve in good shape, but I don't know why I must eat until it hurts sometimes or eat junk sometimes. I would be devastated if god forbid I seriously mess this up for myself after altering my organs. Anyway, I'm thankful for a lot and for being alive. I wish I didn't have sagging skin n that I focused more on toning...still... I weigh 140 (+) and I started at 265 (+\-).

A yr out n not one flareup. :0)

It's almost been a year!!!!!!! How r u all doing????? I was on oct 28th
