I know and fear my worry is for nothing but going up a pants size is frightening. And If the weight continues to spike I'm in trouble cause I know how hard it is for me to lose. I am blessed and know I am Fortunate. I'm not trying to be ungrateful at all. Just cautious.

I work 7 days a week mostly 12 hr shifts. Nights. So I honestly don't exercise. Work is my exercise. (not making excuses). I'm just wore out from working. I eat a lot of soup, meats, and veggies. My weakness is my coffees I do used fat free creamer now. My eating could be better. I don't have the time to meal prep like I used to. Just very worried.

I am 4 years post op. I started at 227 and my lowest weight has been 103. I've done amazing. These last three months I have gained 14 lbs. I known shouldn't worry but I am. I would like to lose at least 7 of those. We all know the struggle and I fight it everyday still. Any advice on how to drop those few lbs? Can't seem to do it. Thanks so much and many blessings!!

I'm getting worried. I started at 229lbs. My gastric bypass was 2 years ago June 21st. I lost weight pretty fast and am still losing. I am now at 103 lbs. I did not want to lose this much at all. I eat all the time trying to gain now. I am in a size 3 jeans and wearing a small shirt. I have no boobs at all. None! When I eat I feel so tired. I have had blood work done and its all good. About 3 months ago I had a celtic ulcer and had to have some emergency surgery but other than that I have been fine, just continuing to lose. I keep hoping it will taper off and I will eventually gain some back. I look bad. Does anyone have any advice on how to gain? I know that's a terrible question when we all go through so much to lose but I'm going to look like a skeleton before long. Thanks so much!

2 yrs out and 120 lbs lost!! Yeppie!!

Just take Tylenol when needed. It was so out of the blue. But I'm on the mend and hope it doesn't return:)

I recently was admitted into the hospital when a peptic ulcer I didn't know I had began to bleed and I hemmoriged. The surgeon told me they were common with people who has had weight loss surgery. He also said if I hadn't come to the hospital when I had I would had died. I lost a lot of blood. Thing is, I was in no pain leading up to this. I all of a sudden got dizzy, passed out, and when I came to I was sick to my stomach. I ran to the bathroom and there was a huge amount of blood coming from my bowels. This was 4 days ago. I spent 2 days in the hospital and am still weak. Has this happened to anyone else and if so should I be worried it may happen again?

You have done amazing!!!!! Looks like you have maintained as well!! Congrats to you!!!!

I started at 227 and now am 110. I never meant to lose this much but still don't want to gain. It's been 19 months and I've been fortunate enough not to gain any but I know it's still early out.

I was wondering.....does everyone Regain some sort of their weight back after weightloss surgery? From what I am reading most do.

I am 18 months out and have lost 117 lbs. I started at 227 and am currently at 110. I recently lost another 5 without trying. Actually I am trying to just stop losing. Even eating more carbs. I don't want to lose another lb! Even at 5'2 I can't afford to.

I see saggy skin....i am 50 but see a body of an 80 year old now. At least with cloths on. I wear a lot of athletic clothes. Hoodies, tshirts, leggings. I need more weight training but working 12 hour days make it hard.

I don't mean to seem like I'm complaining. I never want to go back to my old unhealthy self. Just don't want to be too skinny. Lol.....at one time I would never imagine myself saying such things?

I am the same. My stomach is very finicky. I thought about adding extra protein shakes. It seems when I try to eat more I tend to get so tired. It seems to drain my energy if that makes sense.
