Has Anyone Had A Problem With Weight Gain After TT

I lost quite a bit of weight PRIOR to WLS, then had a TT. After my TT, I had the mind set that "now I no longer have to be as careful about what I eat". Of course that thinking led me to ultimately need WLS.

Just saying, don't fall into the same trap I did. Even after a TT it is still possible to gain In your abdomen. Your weight line increases and your upper abdomen will get fuller.

How long ago was your TT? I just had mine 23 days ago. Since then I've not eaten very well. It's killing me not to be able to exercise, and for me the 2 go hand in hand. It's like if I exercise I won't ruin it by eating badly. But since I can't exercise for a while....well you know. Plus I can see my abs, so it's like I feel like that 1 this or that won't hurt me. But as you say, those,things add up and that's what got me obese in the first place.

Thanks for the tip. What's your game plan for turning things around?

I had my TT 2 years ago. It's crazy the games your mind can play. I had dieted for so long that after the TT I thought I deserved to take a break ....... eventually I got back to the weight I was when I started dieting.

I was sleeved August 5th of this year. I have since lost 32 lbs. from my highest weight. I need to lose at least 10 more pounds to be at my pre TT weight. I would like to get to 140-145, the 130's are really too thin for me @ 5'6". I am hopeful that with this new tool, and lifestyle changes I will now be able to maintain my weight loss.

Fortunately the weight I gained last came off first, so I have my waistline and my flat tummy back. I also had Lipo on my hips and backside. It wasn't all that attractive when the weight started coming back, it was very disproportionate.

Congrats on the TT. I'm sure you will do great!
