gained a little more than one year out

Well I weighed 140lbs around Nov 11 2014 had surgery Nov 11 2013 now I weigh 165lbs I am now a 33 waist was a 30 waist but maybe a 30 waist for a man 48 years old is not reasonable I think that might have been to ambitious. I would prefer to stay at a 30 waist but maybe its not possible I have thought of exercising but I'm not sure my body will lose weight around the waist. I remember I only ate meat and vegetable now I have carbs with my meals. The surgeon mentioned that after one year I would gain 15% back. I guess he was right. Not sure if I should drive myself crazy over the increased waist size.

I was told that if i was doing fine without carbs to just leave them out, your body misses them but if you don't give in, the craving doesn't start again. I am not saying that that is the reason for the gain but it could be part of it, maybe go back to basics. Protein first veggies next.
