Thank you every one! I have struggled with this for years, including the horrible snacking... Prayers please. I'm going to find a solution.

Had bypass in 2012... Everything went wonderful. This last year everything crashed, I've been binge eating and put on 20lbs Panic attacks happened and now I feel as if I lost some control of things. How do get control? Anyone recommend a medication for panic attacks that we had bypass can handle? I have to lose this extra weight

You are in my prayers. It is difficult.. But we have to keep reminding ourselves, we've come to far to give up now.. Keep trying!!!

I'm on day 5 of eating like I don't have a pouch.. I've been getting sick from over eating and I'm up 6 lbs.. What is wrong with me? Why can't I control this head hunger.. I have to control this!! Help!!

Thank you!!!! Good luck to you!

Today, November 1st is the one year anniversary of my bypass surgery. I feel extremely blessed to have been even approved. I'm so thankful for my difficult journey and even when I feel discouraged or fall off the rules bus... I remind myself of this opportunity God gave to me and how I must learn to take full advantage of the tools I've been given. It's only by the grace of God that I have lost the weight and remained complication free. Praise you Father!! .. And thank you! I will succeed on this journey! Pre- surgery weight: 247 Post- weight: 146

Me too.. I'm almost a year out and I can do 1500 calories and be fine..

I am almost one year post op (November 1st) and I'm down 102lbs.. However since June I've had no control over my head hunger and feel I may have stretched my pouch. Maybe it's normal, maybe it's not.. But I can eat 2 scrambles eggs and a whole grilled cheese for a meal and still feel fine.. That never used to be. I've lost the sensation of knowing when I'm full. I'm truly at wits end and will see my surgeon next Monday.. I've come so far, but am I just destined to give up and start all over again?? I can even imagine gaining that weight back. I've gained 4lbs and I'm a bit stressed. With malabsorption wearing off.. I wonder if I did the right thing with my weaken will power..

Today is a new day!!! I cheated a little too.. Had a slice of pizza! I was mad at myself as well.. But I still stayed under calories and I'll follow it today for sure! Good luck to you!

Hahaha!! I know the feeling!! I had to skip my routine of lunch at work, but I am dedicated! Say one almost down, Thank God for decaf coffee... I must say, my body is definitely cleansing!

I'm starting the 5 day pouch test.. Because I fell off the wagon pretty hard since June. Has Anyone out there tried this? What do you think?

It's a device that you keep attached to you.. I.E. Wrist band or clip- that measures steps, food intake, calories burned and sleep pattern. It's wonderful! It can be synced with MFP and is pretty accurate. Great tool!
