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????

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

Feel free to ask any questions you might have about any of our programs.

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!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
