HAVE YOU GAINED WEIGHT AFTER YOUR SLEEVE.

Hello everyone. I haven been on this forum for quite a while. I was sleeved back in June 2012. I had the lapband revision to sleeve. So far I've lost

45lbs give or take. My starting weight was 216. I lost my first 20 very quickly but from there on its was like pulling teeth.LOL. Anyhow a year to the day I had emergency gallbladder surgery and had to stop working out for a few month, gained a couple of pounds I was able to loose them again. For the past year and half I had endured Iron infusion for my low Iron and hemoglobin. In December my OB/GYN decided I needed a total hysterectomy had the surgery done December 19 again had to stop working out and again gained roughly about 10 this lbs I haven't been able to loose it. I'm very worried and upset that I will be gaining more and more. I'm back working out and I'm very careful with what I eat and nothing scale won't move I know I haven't lost inches either because my clothes still fit tight. Everyone keeps telling it's because of the last surgery and that I look fine. It's sad because I don't like what I see in the mirror. And upsetting because I've put my body through so much and I don't want to be I vain.

Hang in there and tell yourself you can the fight against weight gain. You probably need to go back to the prep diet for a week or two and keep a food journal and even see a dietician. Don't give up you did not go through hell and back for nothing you can do it. Best of luck

I think we all have fears of gaining weight after the sleeve. When you have been over weight all of

your life and you finally lose the weight you get paranoid. So many things in our every day lives

can stress us out and most of us use food for comfort. It is hard to keep our eyes on the prize of

being our ideal weight. We will probably all gain and lose a few lbs. after the sleeve we just

have to remember to not lose site of where we were and how easy it would be to get there again. If

that makes any sense at all. It takes a long time to heal from surgery, at least six months. Don't

beat yourself up just go back to the beginning and be strong.
