This is just an observation talking with people over the years. Many of us have eatting disorders pre surgery. It's not suprising to find some have them post surgery.

Going back to basics, keto and weight watchers did not work for you. It may be time to seek counseling.

Your not the first person that has experienced a gain.

@scarlett63 I'm sure you are frustrated. Reality , Any one of us can gain. Have you contacted your surgeons office/dieticain? They may have some good advice on getting back on track and ruling out medical issues. Counseloing/therapy is an option to fight the mental side of weight loss. You already know your baraitric plan. Time to put it into acction before 210 becomes 240, 260 or 300 Get rid of temptation food and go shoping for healthy whole foods. Get healthy options for sweet and salty cravings. Being off plan your body is used to the extra calories carbs and sugars. You will feel crappy as you detox off them and get your body back in to weight loss mode. Embrace the suck! it will get better once you are consistant and back in your weight loss zone Log and weigh your food, hydrate and exercise. We also have a group weight loss challenge. Its a good way to support each other as we lose weight https://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/422620-❤-february-2019-challenge-❤/?page=10&tab=comments#comment-4743640

Are you using baritastic or myfitnesspal as a log?

It's hard. But you let them go. Oh yes, I wore black as my everyday uniform. ? Soon you will be filling your closet with new clothing and new colors for spring/summer. Your sizes will be dropping quickly. Buy at discount stores and thrift stores until your weight settles.

Could be a stall. if you work your plan it will break. Do you log your food? You need to know if you are hitting your calorie and macro goals.

I drink jasmine tea in the morning. Before bed, lavender chamomile with a bit of unsweetened cashew milk. The smell and taste is comforting.

@NH1 Congrats on your surgery date. This is exciting, You will be on the other side of your sleeve and losing weight in days! Sounds like the standard diet progression. 48 hour liquids to shrink the liver pre surgery. Liquids, puree,soft foods, as you heal from surgery. Then onto real foods. You can do this!

Be prepared, SO much variation on post-op diets as well. They vary massively from 500 calories until you get to goal to no restrictions at all. I want to know what the long term success rates are.
