HI Y'all,

I wanted to do some research with REAL people instead of reading about it in some report.

I'm wondering how much weight (IF ANY) you have gained since being sleeved. I go up between 1-3 lbs. so my answer would be 1-5 lbs.

I'm curious to see how this goes.

Thanks!

I have never been sick, the only thing I can't eat is Turkey I've tried it 3 times to see if its the culprit and I have to make myself sick after eating it. Apart from that, never had heartburn again, nor rejected any food

do you mean the water weight during surgery? if so I gained 12 pounds.

It's just hard. My bf eats ice cream every night. Now that he's here all the time, there are foods in the house that were never here before. I DON'T want to gain weight back, but it's really hard. I have to really watch everything I eat very carefully. It would be really easy to gain about 20 , I bet, if I didn't watch that scale every morning.

I am currently 6 weeks post op, and I am def struggling with gaining weight during my TOM. I also gained 1lb during Thanksgiving & feel terrible about it. That along with not getting enough Protein or fluids, I feel like I am self-sabotaging.

Not a good week for me...

I think it would be pretty hard to gain a real pound at six weeks out... you would have to drink/EAT 3000 extra calories to do that...probably Water weight from extra salt... it will come off, don't stress about it. The holidays are hard, just take it one day at a time and log what you eat and drink to stay conscious.

These are the stories I need to hear. Today is Saturday and last Saturday was my surgery,

I was 140k night before (checkin). This morning I am 133k and whts better I can see the difference.

I had the band before and it was miserable 3.5 yrs of torture. I am on a liquid diet yet and Doc told me ice cream was ok for now. If in the states I could get reduced fat and sugar free versions, but this is Thailand and they put hot peppers and huge amounts of sugar in everything.

Long story short I am very encouraged.

I have had a strange journey with my weight loss - lost really fast in the beginning when I was doing only 500 calories or so, if even that - then stalled big time when the caloric intake went up to 1200-1300 (per nutritionist) - can't seem to lose at that - I travel ALOT for work and when I travel I have gained up to 8 lbs from my low point but as soon as I come home it starts to come off again. I think with the travel there is water weight gain from the flying as well. I still have 40-45lbs to lose to get to a reasonable goal and I think it is just going to take alot more exercise, which I have been very bad at.

Im a man had my surgery dec 2009. I started with 356 lbs and after ine year i reached 235 lbs in dec 2010. Now im 262 lbs so i gained quiet a but in the last 6 months. Its easy to gain back the weight if u dont go on diet so this surgery is not magic but its a tool to help u with ur diet

I'm curious to know, what would you say are the main reasons you had a weight gain? I'd say 21 Lbs is rather significant gain.

I'm hopeful that keeping a good eye on the scale, my workouts and doing a good job watching what I'm eating for the most part will help keep the weight from creeping back up. I don't plan to be super rigid with my eating, but I'm hopeful that if I notice my scale going up more than a normal 5 Lbs bounce I will work toward getting it back off.

Thank you in advance for any insight you might have! I'm just trying to avoid this if I can.

YES YES YES! PLEASE share HOW you gained this amount of weight back???? I would find it almost impossible to do that, but your gain says other ;( ...This comes at a time where I'm just about to start a weekly to monthly weigh in versus my daily weigh in's UGH!!!!

I know right?? LOL I'm down to 2 weigh in per week. Fridays and Mondays to watch my weekend eating. I'm worried will that be enough now? I just don't want to be hog tied to my scale the rest of my life. I just want a normal accounting of it... but what's normal?

My friend and i both gained around 25 lbs back by just eating little but slmetimes bad choices like a junior burger or ice cream here and there

The gaining is slow but its scary

Im now back on diet and trying to lose again

Thanks for posting, Anything you can say about your weight gain would be very helpful to us all...and we will be there for you and your continuing journey too!

I go up and down about 3 lbs.....but I think it's just water weight:)

Hey guys, I was 2 years out since my sleeve surgery on Dec. 8th. I actually got down to 169# this summer around July-August, but since my mom's passing in August, I have gained 9#. I have gotten in the bad habit of grazing. I usually don't eat anything for breakfast. I tend to just drink my coffee with a rtu lean muscle milk added to it. Love this because I can drink my coffee and my muscle milk for breakfast, and in turn get 25 grams of protein. That jumps starts my metabolism. Good luck with your weight loss.
