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?

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

@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!

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).
