    Weight Gain

    I am frustrated this morning. I have gained pound. I know, I know, no big deal; it is just one. However, I have been struggling for months loosing and gaining the same 5 lbs. I had gotten away from working out everyday and have started up again....walking 1.5 miles at lunch and then either yoga or some other workout in the evening. Why am I gaining when I am working it? My eating is not perfect, but I am still eating little amounts an not too much sugar. Any thoughts? Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
  2. Hi everyone. I am about 2.5 years out, but I seriously struggling. I am eating until I get sick and just cannot get motivated to workout. Would anyone like to be "buddies" and we can help each other out? I am open to it if there is anyone interested. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App

    Post-Workout

    So i just got done workinout for the first time in weeks. I am a sweaty mess, tired, and in pain. I have Lupus and Fobromyalgia and it is so hard to workout. I just forced myself to do it today. How do you stay motovated once the weight loss slows or you have a long interruption in your routine? Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
  5. Hi. Have you tried swimming? I am sure someone already said that lol Also as far as revisio goes, i would say that if you can eat more the 4-8 oz of solid Protein with co.fort then youay want to talk to your surgeon. Stop snacking! I a huge grazer and emotional eater. That is the biggest reason i am stalled now. I am not an MD so i could be way off, but if you need to talk things out or need support, contact me Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
  6. I am about 2.5 years post op and have lost almost 150 lbs. Well, i stuck and still want to loose a little more. Problem is that i am totaly unmotivated. I lost my job in December and feel into a pretty bad depression. I stoped working out and even though i am still eating very little, i eating all the wrong things. Oh and i have gone back to myemotional eating which consists of a lot of grazing I am looking for support to get be back on track and any sugestions on how to get out of this unmotivated place. Someone out there is bound to have had similarfeelings. Thanks for reading my post and any thoughts would be appreciated. Sent from my SM-G920P using the BariatricPal App
  7. I am a little over a year post-op and am stalled and have been for two months or so. I was wondering if someone who is still loosing could give me an example of their diet for a day, please? I am at a loss and still have more then 30lbs to go before I get to my goal. I know it slows down, but any tips on kick starting things would be appreciated!

  9. I have been gaining and loosing the same 5 to 10 pounds over and over for more then a month now. I have tried increasingly my exercise, eating right, and more water, but nothing seems to be helping. I have lost around 120 lbs and am thrilled, but am not at my goal. Anyone have some words of wisdom or support? Please.

    I need your help/opinion

    A big question is do you live with your parents? I live hours a way so it was easier on me as far as telling my family. In fact, my mother is the ONLY person in my family who knows and only my closest friends here know. It is a personal choice....NOT the choice of anyone else, no matter how hard it may be to feel you are going against them. You will feel better physically and the issues this creates with your parents will more then likely mend as they see you become healthier. If your healthcare team is behind you, I say GO FOR IT!!

    Sleep apnea and snoring

    This is one of the deciding factors in having surgery for me. My CPap is the devil. I was told however that I would need to have another sleep study done to truly come off the machine as far as my medical team would be concerned. I am set on the CPap's lowest setting and my husband has noticed that I am not snoring like I was, but I dont want to chance having to do more then one sleep study. Therefore, I am going to wait until I reach my goal weight. 27 more hard pounds to go!

    Hiatal Hernia Back

    Surgery done and went pretty well. They nicked a lung so I needed a chest tube. I am well on the way to recovery. Thanks so much for asking
