It's tough when you lose control of your own life. This is the one thing that you can work to control. If you had surgery in the town you live in see if the office has a support group, if not look online to see if you can find one in your area or someone that you can meet with face to face to help you along. My fitness pal is a great tool and so is this site but having support around you that are living a similar life can really help.
Good luck I have faith that you can get yourself back on track. You have made the a breakthrough already by realizing what your doing.

My situation is very similar! I am at 260 had dropped a lot of weight before my wedding 2 years ago and 4 mos out from my wedding I got pregnant. I gained about 50+ Poinds durning my pregnancy and then only lost about 20.
I want more children but I don't want to go thru another high risk pregnancy due to obesity.
I want to be healthy for my 18mo old and also for future children.
My surgeon told my husband,who was so concerned about being able to have kids after surgery, that it was safe for me to have a pregnancy with the sleeve then it is to be pregnant and morbidly obese.
I am currently waiting for a date for my surgery all my pre-op clearances have been completed! Hoping for late October early November.
My doctor recommends a year before trying for another but I know every doctor is different and we will be monitored with them so they will know what's best for us!
So happy for this decision for both of us! Good luck!

Anyone that tells you that you're taking the easy way out doesn't understand what you are about to do. Like my surgeon told me.... This isn't an easy way out, this is the toughest desicion you will make and you're a strong person for doing that. It's not like you will live your like you did before surgery.... This is a lifestyle change and the WLS is a tool to help you in the process. Good luck and hopefully you will find someone at home that will be in your team to help you.
