Hi everyone,

I am 3 1/2 out and I am gaining weight. I had lost 180lbs with 20 to go but now I have gained 30lbs. Over the passed 2 years I have had two major surgery that have lifted me not able to excise or eat right. I don't have a nut anymore because he retired. Can someone please tell me how I can get back on track.

Congratulations your success so far.

Why not find another NUT since your original NUT retired? See if your surgeon can refer you to someone.

In the meantime, I would suggest you go back to basics.

Are you still: tracking your food; getting in all of your Protein and fluids; avoiding starches, added sugars, and fried foods; taking your Vitamins and supplements as directed; and exercising as you are able?

Why can't you eat right or exercise? What are your limitations?

I had brain and spine surgery. So I am relying on my family to take care of me.

How does having your family care for you keep you from eating healthy? Do they not know how to help you? Have you considered having your caregivers learn about your food plan and nutritional requirements? I bet your NUT would be glad to provide support in educating your family.

Have you tried physical therapy for exercise?

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
