5 years out...gaining weight

[Mindbodyandsoul 4]

Brand new here, getting ready to start the 5 day reset diet.

I had lost almost all my weight then got custody of my 3 grandkids and have gained back 40 out of the 80 lbs I had lost.

Anyone have similar experience or needing to go back to the basics like I do?

You did it once, you can do it again. Best wishes to you!

Welcome to the site. No judgment for a weight gain. Can happen to any of us. People new to surgery can learn from what your going through.

I had to get my head back into the game. It takes going through some mental battles to give up the carbs, sugar and extra calories. I went to basics. Log food in an app, hydrate, follow food plan and exercise.

I joined a weight loss challenge for support. here is the January weight loss challenge

I gained some weight back so I’m now trying to reset and get this sleeve reworking.

@Mindbodyandsoul Welcome!

Weight gain can happen. No judgement.

I have a friend who is about 5 years out and started regaining. She returned back to basics and joined weight watchers to keep herself accountable. Seems to be working. Best of luck!

Oh, God Bless you, I'm sure that was quite stressful and a jolt to your system to change your routines and take care of the little ones. You can do this!
