Having a hard time dealing with the weight gain after getting to my goal of 125...
I had Gastric Sleeve on 10/18/2012 Starting weight was 235 and being only 5' 3" it was hard on my body. I decided to have the procedure done after seeing the fantastic results of my father in laws surgery ( he also had the gastric sleeve). I saw results right away and was very happy with how things were progressing. My husband at the time was totally against the surgery and did not even stay with me in the hospital. It was a bummer to say the least that I was so exited to finally feel good about myself and no one to share my success with.
I finally reach my goal of 125 in just a few short months. By this time my husband and I had split up and of course he found someone else ( who of course was larger then myself). I was so sad and happy at the same time, I had the body I had been hoping for and my health was improved. A few months later my then ex- husband committed suicide and I fell into a very deep depression and my bad habits came back with a vengeance. I slept to much, didn't exercise and went right back to eating just like before surgery. As you would guess the weight started coming back and quite quickly.
It has now been a few years and I've been trying to get back on track. I have lost about 30 lbs of the 80 I gained back and I see no reason to stop now.

I'm so sorry for the loss of your ex-husband. I lost my brother to suicide after beginning my 6 month journey towards my VSG. I felt the very same depressed feelings as you did. It derailed me for awhile. Keep your focus on why you want the weight off, how your lifestyle change has helped you so far! Let me just say, that you are worth the work! You are a special person and you have the strength within to accomplish this! I'm rooting and praying for you
