I am struggling to get back on track. My surgeon told me in the beginning to stay at 225 but don't go below 219. I have bee. Fluctuating ever since. I got down to 215 and then decided to pull back my exercising and eat more carbs to put on the 4 pounds. When I was attempting to lose the weight I was never able to get beneath 210 before stalling out there. Now I'm 233.5lbs and have my last appt (month 6 on Monday). I'm so fearful I'll have to start all over. Going back to the gym ASAP. Very upset I stopped weighing myself. I know it's my time of the month now but I don't think it's Water weight. No weight at all! Any suggestions? Maybe I should call my physician now and discuss this with them. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Just a question for anyone who is post op, how long should I stay off work? I've saved up 2 weeks of leave and I work in an office (government). Do you think this is a good amount of time to heal and get through the fatigue I've heard of? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

So, today is my second appointment. I am seeing my nutritionist today. And after all that worrying, I ended up losing five pounds since Monday. Now, I'm 222. Sigh. I can't win. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
