Good for you, keep up the good work.
I am 14 months out.
Was down 110 pounds but have put 20 back on.
Thanks!

Wow!

I watch Dr Duc Voung on youtube and on the classes he mentions After what they call the "Honeymoon" stage they say is harder to maintain and we have to be very strict with our meals.

Thanks!

Yep. I can eat anything I want now. I still have restriction as far as volume but there is nothing that my sleeve can’t tolerate. Which is not good for a food addict like me. Every day is a challenge, some days I do better than others.

What month did your regain begin?

At 8 months the weight loss stopped. I was stalled for 4 months. Weight gain started around 13 months. I just re did the math and I am 16 months out now. My wife and I have a baby mid July and I have put on 20 pounds since then. I am sure some of it is stress eating, but that is no excuse. Most of it is due to poor choices and lack of exercise.

Have you ever considered joining any of the challenges or the intermittent fasting group I'm a part of?

It actually works...

But 90lbs is no small loss and you should be very very very proud

I have thought about going to OA
Overeaters Anonymous but haven’t yet.
I did the sleeve reset diet once and it worked for about a week.
I know 90 pounds is good but I was wanting to lose about 150 total.

I can tell you that intermittent fasting can potentially complement OA because it limits the window of your eating schedule, so whatever you choose, we are here for you as well. And you still have time (maybe another year) to make it to your goal if you choose.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
