Staying Focus !

I am really Struggling . I had my sleeve a year ago this past January. At the last weigh in I was down 100 + not sure exactly I know it was over 100. I am so disgusted with myself at this point. I have lost my focus on eating right and feeling good about myself I find myself snacking on my son's Snacks and hiding it from everyone. I find that I can eat almost anything s ok metime a small amount or not. Simetimes I feel that I have stretched out my sleeve. I am under a lot of stress right now. I need some advice on how to get my butt back to focusing on the right things.

I hide the fact I eat things from everyone because I don't want to let them down.

First, I suggest you watch this video. This surgeon basically says you can't stretch your sleeve.



Second, you can get back on track. A mistake won't undo a year of losing over ONE HUNDRED POUNDS! That is a ton of weight!!!! You should be so proud!! That is a wonderful achievement!! Now use that pride to get yourself back on track and remind yourself why you did this surgery in the first place. You can do it!!!!!



You're not alone. Post surgery we lose weight so fast that it becomes an addicting game. After a time it slows down or maybe stops. For some it even goes back up a little. IMO, you need to figure out your core problem (stress? shame? something else?) and identify it. If you can identify and eliminate it, you'll be back on track. Good luck!
