Yes I gained 5 lbs back recently and that really scared me! I NEVER want to go back to that lost lonely hole again! I keep thinking how horrible I felt 90 pounds ago! I started walking and really watching what I was putting in my mouth. Protein first - awareness of feelings and stuffing food! No more! Go back to basics. Remember where you were- what it took to get here today! You can do it! Good luck and keep me posted please!

I struggle with making good food choices everyday. I am 1 1/2 years out. I try to back to basics whenever I catch myself falling off the bandwagon. Also don't focus on ur slip ups, but instead on the good steps u are taking towards victory. That's what keep me focused and a good support group.

I think we all have to retrain the brain especially when it comes to our emotions! So sorry to hear of your losses. I hope things are better for you now. I don't know if journaling would combat comfort eating but it might be worth a try! It is suggested to exercise when feeling low but I have never done that! Hope you are well!

Can you get grief counseling at church or find a group? Do local hospitals have bariatric support groups? Or call a friend.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
