This is me too, unfortunately. Sleeved in 2016 and have seen steady incline—most rapidly in the past four months. My first step was to go to my surgeon’s office, talk about the program with someone that understands what I’m supposed to be doing (I’ve had almost zero group support). Now I’m back here, trying to refocus and get healthy again!

176--not my Easter Challenge goal, but 1 lb from my doc's goal for me [emoji16]

177

178

I had/have the same problem since having a kid and use descreet pads. Really just a regular pad that blocks odors. I can say that, since losing 70 pounds, it has gotten considerably better. Good luck with your exercise--that's great that you're getting out there!

179.8

Good luck to you @@Elode! Sounds like a stressful time for you, but you can get through it! [emoji16][emoji106]????

182.6 [emoji30] Need to get my butt in gear!

Hello fellow October '15 sleevers! Found this list of snack ideas and there are few in there that sounded good, that I hadn't thought of, some maybe amped up with a little unflavored protein. Anyway, thought I'd share: http://greatist.com/health/100-calorie-snacks

Weighing in today at 181.6. May I change my goal weight to 170, please? [emoji16]

I'm in! GW: 175

Good to know there might be more options out there, thanks

You're right. I think if there was a huge financial strain, it would really distract me and make me uncomfortable. I've known since I was very young that I needed therapy, but have ignored it bc I didn't want to deal with my issues. This opportunity has really made me want to focus on the positive experience and depression and compulsive eating is getting in the way.

I agree, having someone familiar with eating issues and bariatric surgery would be ideal. I really liked the doc I went to pre-op for the psych eval, but she isn't in-network unfortunately and finances are definitely a factor.

Thank you--that's a great place to start.
