6 years out and weight gain

It’s been six years since I have my surgery. Lost over 100+lbs.

However in the past few years, it’s slowly regaining - approx 70lbs up atm. Most because I went vegan for two years and regained a ton because I ate quinoa mostly (carb galore) ughhh...mad at myself for that.

I’m a lacto-ovo vegetarian now and looking for some help. Can anyone suggest any tips on how I can jump start my weight loss again?

I’m thinking about doing the 5 day pouch test to start.
