I am so bummed. It’s been 2 years since I’ve had my sleeve surgery and have gained 30 pounds back. My cravings returned. Life got hectic. My back needed surgery. My activity decreased. I no longer like the taste of the healthy foods that I previously ate.

I’m gaining weight faster than before the surgery. How do I snap out of this?

When did you get the sleeve done? I was on Tegretol and it made me a zombie but it kept me level. Is there something better out there?

I'm a year post op and have gained my appetite back. I can't work out because I have two slipped discs in my back of which I will be getting surgery in two weeks. Working out used to help me get over the eating disorder and the depression.
Since I have been diagnosed with Bipolar 2, I get depressed and have an appetite. This happens especially when a few bad things fall apart at the same time. I'm not sure which medication would help both my appetite and my bipolar 2 depression.
Can anyone tell me what works for them?

Wow, wow, wow!!! Simply amazing. You look phenomenal! You have zero evidence of wls on your stomach. All your scars are gone. I can only dream of results like this in two years. Thanks for the hope and motivation!!!

I hope you find relief. Good for you for being proactive.

Your eyes look amazing. I look more like your first photo. I want desperately to get my eyes done. I'm scared that the surgeons will botch it up. Who did you go to and how much was it. I know that my insurance won't pay for it. I would take the flight to England to get my eyes done. My sleeve was done 5/25/16. Is it still too soon to get the eyes done?

Thanks Kate!! I'll take it easy!

@@_Kate_ Surgery is Friday! I am so excited!!! A little nervous about the pain. My doc says no heavy lifting or big movements for a month. Hopefully my husband will vacuum during that time

I was quite shocked about my eyes, I have never had bags before and was always told I didn't look my age. Each day they feel less 'tight' but they are still swollen a little. My daughter in law is 31 and she still gets asked for ID !! lol

I'm in Red Bank NJ during the week and Hells Kitchen NYC on weekends if any sleevers wants to chat.

I'm in NJ and heard that you can get insurance to pay for a boob job if you can get an orthopedic to show that your back is effected by the weight of your boobs. Has anyone done this? If so, please tell me the name of your orthopedic. I'm in nj but willing to go to NYC

I find that EVERYONE is now on a diligent diet since I lost all this weight. My mom, my sister, and people at work are all self conscious about their weight now. I never cared about their weight but apparently they all cared about mine. They feel that they can all do it without surgery. I think that it's all insane. I did the surgery for me.

Hello fellow sleevers. I'm 4 months post op. I started at 240 and now am stuck at a standstill for over two weeks at 185. How do I fix this so that I can continue dropping. I'm exercising regularly and eating the same. I need some help here. I have decreased my Water intake. Could that be it? I feel stuck.

I'm following the Bariatric diet strictly and am also averaging 10 pounds per month. My doctor said that I was losing slower than average. I'm not letting it bother me. I'm still walking at least 40 minutes a day and try to drink Water and Protein as much as I can along with the Vitamines. They say that everyone has their journey and I know that this weight will come off as long as I keep trying. I am envious of those people able to lose over 100 pounds in 6 months.
