Regain 2 years after surgery - help me



Recommended Posts

Hi guys, it’s been a while since I used this app but now at the pint in red help, support, advice.

In short I had gastric sleeve surgery in January 2017 and the weight just fell off particularly in the first year - 18 months.

At the point of surgery I was told there would be some things I would be able to eat but I haven’t had any issues like that at all and can eat pretty much whatever I want.

Now it’s got to the point that I am defiantly regaining weight and it’s seems like it is coming back on quite quickly.

I noticing it most with some people mentioning they have noticed it, defiantly feel it and see it in the way my clothes are fitting me etc .

Has anyone been through the same and can anyone advise the best way of getting back on track with weight loss?

The best thing you can do is to start logging your food again. It's amazing how many calories slip by with just a nibble here or there. Also, get rid of any high-calorie drinks if they've made their way back into your diet. Eat your Protein first to fill you up before you add veggies or carbs. No drinking 30 minutes after meals.

But the most important is logging that food. Until you know exactly what's causing your regain, it will be hard to address the issue. Good luck!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
