    Anyone else gain weight since quarantine? Sorry if this is already been discussed, but I gained 12 pounds over the last 2 months and feel awful. I’m closer to 200 now than I’d like. I’ve been working from home for two months so I’ve been sitting at my desk all day with little to no exercise. I’m also a “bored eater” so that hasn’t helped.

    Anyone try Noom? I just got let go so not sure if I should pay for that right now...

    Ty for listening!

    That's awesome for you, I'm so happy for you! Can I ask how tall you are?
    My sister had the sleeve in July of 2019 and she has gotten to the point where I consider her too small. She obsesses about everything she eats. If she has "the munchies" she'll eat a lemon drop to get a different taste in her mouth so she won't want to eat. I'm worried she has gone too far and may have an eating disorder.

    Awesome!! How much did you lose overall? Mine slowed down at about 9 month to a year so I’m worried getting this off now will be so hard!

    @freiabr I’m so sorry to hear about your mother! I hope it all works out for you. You must be doing something right out there if you’re still losing! Sometimes other things are just more important.


    So my scale moved for the first time in 2 months - I gained 7 pounds!!!! In a week and a half. I’m livid. I started a new anti depressant and I knew it was making me hungry but I never expected that huge increase. Needless to say, we are switching me to a different medication lol

    Has anyone tried intermittent fasting? Can someone explain how it works and if you’ve seen results?
    I see my surgeon and NUT next week because I’m so upset about the weight gain and hope they can get me back on track.

    Hey all! I’ll be at 9 months July 1st from my sleeve surgery. I can’t believe it’s been that long!! I lost almost 80 lbs, starting at 256 and down to 179.

    So I’ve been stalled for about two months. That scale just isn’t budging!!! I don’t feel a huge difference in clothes size lately so it’s not like I’m losing inches and not weight.

    I know a huge part of that is that my elliptical had to go into storage when I moved in with my boyfriend. His place is small and there just isn’t room for it. I don’t have money for a gym and I’ve always kind of hated gyms, so my exercise is very limited. I’m in NJ so, weather permitting, I take walks while on break at work and after work, but that’s about it.

    I’d like to lose another 25 pounds, but maybe that’s unrealistic? I feel great and I’m the smallest I’ve ever been in my adult life, I just don’t want to see the scale creep up!! My dad keeps saying I’m going to gain it all back the way he did (very supportive, I know!)

    I’m eating every few hours but also - I’m HUNGRY!! It may be a medication I’m taking for depression, but I’m hungry a LOT and crave food before bed.

    Thanks for listening :)

    Tomorrow is 6 months for me! I’m really happy overall but my hair has started to fall out ? anyone have any recommendations on making it stop? I’ve added biotin to my daily vitamins.

    Other than that, I started at 256 and am down to 180! I haven’t had as much time to exercise lately so I’m stalled, but I’m motivated to start up again!

    So I bought size 14 jeans a couple of weeks ago because my 16s were getting roomy. They were still too darn small! So I went from 16W to regular 16 and then today.. the 14s fit!!!! I’m ecstatic and can’t believe I’m in the smallest of the plus sizes. Tops from Avenue are too big.. I need to find a “normal” size place to shop at!
    In case you’re wondering I started at a 20/22 and have lost 70 pounds

    Hi everyone!! I had my 3 month check in at my surgeons today and it went amazingly well. I’m down 61 pounds and have another 30 or so to go until I’m just “overweight”.

    Just wanted to see if any of you are having check ins this month and how it’s going??
