Oh yes, I agree! That'll be my next step.

Thanks Matt Z! I was kind of thinking the same. I already did somewhat of a reset for the last few days and feel some restriction coming back. I've been doing a shake for breakfast, low carb egg drop soup for lunch, tons of water and for dinner is baked chicken and some type of vegetable. I forgot how much chicken fills my sleeve up! I am going to see if I can find my paper work to see what my food plan for post surgery was. I am pretty sure remember it.

Hello All. I had my gastric sleeve surgery on June 16, 2016. I lost about 25lbs the first month and then suffered the loss of my father who was my best friend. After I lost my dad I ceased losing weight. I mourned the loss of him for quite some time...I still do really. For at least the first year after losing him I was in a horrible depressed state and didn't follow the rules of how I should eat post sleeve. I was eating until I felt sick, eating unhealthy foods and drinking (not alcohol) my calories. Finally after a year I figured out how to live day by day without him and started feeling happy and positive again. I started following the rules and being super vigilant with my health. I dropped 40 lbs in two months! Whoa. Then, after those two months of excellent weight loss I found out my husband and I were expecting. I went to my first sonogram excited and two seconds with the wand on my belly she told me it was twins! I was instantly excited as twins run in my family (I am the aunt to two sets of twin boys from the same mother.) After the excitement wore off I feared the pending weight gain. I told myself I was going to watch what I ate and not give into wild pregnancy cravings. I lied to myself. I gained 68lbs total through the pregnancy. After giving birth I lost an initial 37lbs the first two days postpartum. Then another 10lbs the following week. I have been stuck at 48 total lbs lost for months now but I also haven't been following the rules of how I should eat post sleeve again. It's time to get my butt in gear. Anyone else a couple years out starting over? I am just looking for tips and possibly success stories for motivation! HELP!

Aw thank you!! Same to you!

Leah, I totally understand! I am also 2 years out. I didn't have as much success as you initially but about a year out I started losing. I then found out I was pregnant with TWINS! My girls are 6 months old now and I do not breast feed. I would but I never produced enough o keep up with both of them. I gained 68 lbs while pregnant with them and was able to get rid of 45 of those pounds the two days I was in hospital after giving birth. Now, I am stuck. I am trying to go back to basics though. Hopefully it works out!
