Why do I do this to myself?



Recommended Posts

I am almost three years out. Everything has been incredibly successful for me. I Lost 118 pounds, even had plastics. However, here I am starting to repeat the same things that got me to 275lbs. I was 157 and now 180. I cannot seem to stop and focus and get back on track. Any tips, advice or strong reality checks are all welcome =(

Okay, since you lost over 100 pounds you know HOW to do this, but "flicking the switch" back to the ON position is hard. Here are a couple of sites that people on this forum have posted. I haven't tried them myself, so do your research, but they have helped other get/stay on track.

And here's a general bariatric surgery site with lots of tips you may have forgotten over the years.

And start going to a bariatric support group. They're not there to judge you, they are there to help each other.

Good luck, you can do this!!!!!

It was a great visit. He took out 1cc and I can feel the diff already. He thinks the marriage issues I'm having is contributing to my reflux and weight gain

For those struggling to get back on track.... Last night my doctor came to our support group to answer any questions his patients might have. When asked how to get back on track, he gave three suggestions:
1. Call my office.
2. Call my office.
3. Call my office.
So there you go.... Call your doctor's office.

Good luck!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
