6 months out and completely lost



Recommended Posts

So here's my issue. I had surgery on 10/24 my weight at surgery was 259 lbs. I have gone thru stricture issues and multiple hospital stays. Now I'm coming up on my 6 month check in and weigh 213. At one point I got down to 208 lbs but since then no movement down just up. I go to the gym most days and try to eat right with the little I do eat. Especially since I still get sick most of the time and have started to experience dumping almost weekly. My drs appt in on the 25th and I'm going into this as a total failure. I'm doing a reset as of tomorrow hoping it helps but at this point I'm just so disappointed in myself and discouraged. I weigh myself 3-4 times a day which is also bad. I just want to get to my GW of 175 but I feel like I will never get there. What am I doing to myself. So depressed.

It's natural to have stalls and for weeks at a time. You should still be tracking food and calories. Look at that and see the change there. I'm 2 1/2 years out and only get an average of 1100 calories per day and 80 grams of Protein. My weight goes up and down from day to day because the amount of Water I drink. Yes u will get there just stay strong. As for dumping, the bad food make this happen so you might want to rethink what you are eating.

Weigh yourself same time same day weekly not daily. If you're dumping you're eating too much sugar. Go back to basics, Protein first 3 meals, w healthy protein based Snacks, no fluids with meals, exercise daily. It will come off... good luck and try not to obsess about the weight. Think about the health benefits and positive gains you're making.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
