Hi. I'm 2 years out from my sleeve surgery. I was doing very well and slid downhill recently. I was under a tremendous amount of stress and started stress eating. Ive gained 8 lbs. I do not want to gain anymore and really need to lose the 8 I gained. I feel like I'm hungry all of the time no matter what I eat, and yes I've done high Protein. I need to mention that even after the surgery I still needed to eat healthy Snacks in between meals, the whole ghrelin thing didn't apply. I was still hungry. I was down a total of 86 lbs. Now I feel like I'm spiraling out of control and with the holiday's coming I'm getting really nervous. I just can't go back the old me, unhealthy and feeling like crap. Suggestions??

I would suggest going low-carb and journaling everything you are eating and drinking. What kind of exercise are you doing?

I think it's normal for a little bit of "rebound" weight, but you're right to try and get it under control now. I find that when I stick to the super low carb and high Protein diet for a day then the next day I'm not as hungry. Carbs and sugar make me feel like I'm ravenous. It's a cycle.

I'll admit very little exercise. Im taking a class 3 evenings a week and work a full time job plus 3 house cleaning jobs. My class will be done mid Jan and then I'll be hitting the gym.

      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! 😞
