LindaJean46 reacted to LaLaDee in Struggling with weight loss 3 yrs post VSGAbout a year ago, I got into the habit of snacking at night (OK, chomping on chocolate at night). I've had to work really hard to change my evening ritual, so I don't start mindlessly eating. I now try and have a cup of tea instead, go to sleep earlier or just do something else to prevent me from falling back into that habit. I know how hard it is though. Good on you for sticking to it!

LindaJean46 got a reaction from LaLaDee in Struggling with weight loss 3 yrs post VSGFirst off congratulations on that weight loss! ???? That’s amazing! But the struggle is real no doubt! I don’t want to go back to my highest ( which Ik I never will) but I don’t like where I am now, I’m a stinking snacker at night and that’s my downfall. I gotta make it a point to have something healthy on hand or I’m done! #notgivingup

LindaJean46 reacted to kate_0329 in Struggling with weight loss 3 yrs post VSGI had surgery in May of 2017. My highest weight was 327lbs I made it down to 211 and then was pregnant with my first 10 months post op. I'm around 230 but I'm also pregnant again. I'm hoping to really kick it in gear after this baby

LindaJean46 reacted to LaLaDee in Struggling with weight loss 3 yrs post VSGYep, I’m three years out. Dealt with some regain, lost about 20lbs in the last two months. I want to lose another 20lbs which seems like it should be easy (Immediately after WLS, I could easily lose 5lbs a week), but it’s so hard and takes a lot more effort! I’m maintaining a 130lb loss so 20 should be nothing, but it’s really hard. I haven’t given up though!

LindaJean46 got a reaction from Hopefulmommy44 in Struggling with weight loss 3 yrs post VSGI’m not interested in revision either. I’ m trying my best to get these 15lbs off but I feel like I take 2 steps forward and 3 steps back! It’s been that way my whole life but I refuse to give up! I’m adding this HIIT training ( high intensity interval training) workouts and resistance bands to my workouts to see if that makes a difference...

LindaJean46 got a reaction from LaLaDee in Struggling with weight loss 3 yrs post VSGHi all! I’m new here and just wanna share. I had VSG Aug 3,2017 I have PCOS which is like a cockblocker I’ll tell you now! I’ve gained about 30lbs since but am now on phentermine and have lost about 10-12 lbs. but it’s such a struggle . My highest weight was 260 and my lowest was 197. I’m currently 216 but I like 200 on myself. Just need encouragement because I feel I’m slipping away again!

LindaJean46 got a reaction from GreenTealael in Struggling with weight loss 3 yrs post VSGI tried weight watchers lost 12lbs then nothing more and I was on for 1 yr. I’ve done Keto and I eat under 1000 calories a day. I track my carbs and I only use a whole wheat, flax and oat bran pita when I have “ bread” I measure everything but my body just likes to be at 220, I work out 6 days a week. I’ve gone to Dr.’s and nutritionist and I’m still stuck here! I won’t give up tho!
