Hello all...Queen of Crop here. Used to be on this forum all the time (so hello to the veterans on here). Was sleeved in 2011, reached goal exactly one year later. All was fine but have gained 10 lbs in 2 years and need to stop the bleeding before it's too late! I would love to go to a week long BACK ON TRACK RETREAT. Does anyone know of one? I live in Europe and would prefer to go here, but am open. Are there any European sleevers willing to create one with me? I have a feeling there are a lot of us out there who are gaining...and I am NOT GOING BACK THERE! WHO IS WITH ME????

Can’t help you there but good to hear from you so wanted to say hi

Hi -long time no see!. I dont know about retreats but i just joined a 6 week fitness transformation challenge for similar reasons. It is kinda fun to have comraderie.

You fly me to Europe and I will go!

Seriously though, please don't beat yourself up over 10lbs in two years! I mean sure, make the necessary changes, but know that you are now facing what all NORMAL women do! Aging, slowing metabolism, etc and average women gain. Struggling with those 10lbs is far greater than struggling with 100 or 200!

Hi there:

While we don't have a week long retreat we do have a weekend retreat to focus on YOU. We have been doing them for 4 years now and they have been extremely successful. folks leave with comments like I Can Do That!!! Renewed in their commitment to themselves and with a plan to win at the weight loss surgery game. Our next one is coming up April 20-22, 2018 in Portland Oregon and we would love to have you attend. We have had folks from Australia and Canada. Here is a link to the event which we call Spring Into YOU WLS SUCCESS MATTERS SPRING INTO YOU WEEKEND.

In addition to that we offer a Back on Track Class via webinar (we use Go to meeting) that meets for 6 weeks on a specified day for about 2 hours. There are books and homework involved in this very thought provoking class and folks have lost regain in that 6 weeks from anywhere between 4 pounds to 24 pounds. Here's a link to the next class coming up. If the time difference doesn't work for you we have done classes at different times of day so let us know what time (US Pacific) would work and we'll see if we can put one together Back On Track Class

Finally W e have a Facebook secret group which is 24/7 365 where everyone is working to achieve their goal weight and we (2 bariatric coaches) are in the group facilitating, doing one on one coaching, teaching, motivating and presenting weekly lessons and weekly challenges (focus points). Here's the link to join our next group which begins January 2018 with all of the details THE ORIGINAL WLS SUCCESS MATTERS WEEKLY WEIGH-IN GROUP

you can read about us and all we offer at WLS SUCCESS MATTERS BECAUSE YOU MATTER

Very nice of your to respond and thanks for the support. The honest truth is I don't feel good at this weight and I know I am slipping back into bad habits, so I don't want 10 to turn into 15 to turn into 20, because as we all know, it can happen!

Sure feels like it but yes, 10/10 but all good. So far it’s been worth the wait!
