2 Years Post Op Have Gained 8 Pds Back And Scared

I reached my target weight within in less than a year of the surgery. I was told in fact by the doctor and others to add a little more food portions to my diet. I did but may be to much. Now I can drink soda. It takes me all day to drink one can. I feel hungry all day now when before I never even felt hungry. I seem to like to eat carbohydrates a lot and not the healthy kind. I in fact have eaten everything bad for me so I could gain a few pounds back because at my goal weight I looked very unhealthy. Ive always been muscular. So when at a tiny size people thought I was sick. So I got tired of hearing it and worked hard to gain 8 pounds back but I feel terrible and notice my appetite has increased. Now I'm scared that I've ruined my sleeve. Im over 2 years post op so I guess I'm in for some changes

    Maybe you should see a dietician to help you get back on track without getting too small (skinny). You are already winning the battle since you are recognizing what your doing wrong. Don't worry j

You've not ruined your sleeve. You just gained what you needed to. Perhaps do the 5 day pouch test or 5 days of protein shakes, meats, nuts, etc, to break the carb cravings. Then introduce healthy whole grains back in one at a time to maintain your new weight. Congrats on your success thus far!
