I'm 5 mos out and have lost 93 pounds. I'm not eating the best of foods but of course in limited amounts. I haven't gained anything but I've been really paranoid lately about gaining my weight back. Has anyone been dealing with that and how do I stay on track?

I am not even close to goal, but I think about this a lot. I plan to find a few of the most disgusting pictures of myself at my highest weight and keep them close by to look at as needed.

I look at old pics constantly. I try eating vegetables and meats. But sometimes I grab some chips...subway sandwiches with mayo...resees..cookies...u name it.

I know exactly how you feel, some days I'll eat exactly how I'm supposed to and other days I cave in. I'm 6 months out and have lost 90lbs. It's hard to keep focused when food has been the thing you turned to all your life. I haven't gained anything and I too worry about gaining it all back but as long as we keep these foods that aren't the best in moderation we should be fine. That's the good thing about the sleeve, you can't really overeat if you listen to your body.

I recommend one on the fridge door, one on your pantry, one in your car and one in your wallet. That way you cannot miss them and will be reminded how far you've come and where you don't want to go back to.

To the OP, you've got to plan! Stock up on good Protein and pack Snacks to take with you wherever you go.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
